Adaptation of the base Sometime, in order to allow the door rotation, a space must be cut out in the base as indicated in the figure 9.

WATER CONNECTION IMPORTANT The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused. 1 ■ The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right. IMPORTANT The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than 60°C. ■ Water pressure must be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa. 2 ■ The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that the water supply can be cut off when the machine is not in use (fig. 1 B).
■ The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink, but it must not be immersed in water, in order to prevent water from being syphoned back to the machine when this is in operation (fig. 4Y). Connecting the outlet hose ■ The outlet hose should disharge into a standpipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 4). ■ When installing the appliance under a worktop the hose pipe clamp must be attached to the wall in the highest possible position under the worktop (fig. 4Z).
■ The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 and 1.8 kg and, for efficient use of the appliance, it should be refilled from time to time according to the regulation of the water softener unit. LOADING THE SALT ■ The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally a warning sign that the salt container needs filling. ■ On the bottom of the machine there is a container for the salt for regenerating the softener.

B After pouring the detergent into the container, close the lid, firstly pushing (1) and then pressing on it (2) until you hear the click. “FINISH” gives very good results and can be easily obtained.
■ the effectiveness of detergents containing the built in water softener/salt depends on the hardness of your water supply. Check that the hardness of your water supply is within the effective range given on the detergent packaging. TYPES OF DETERGENT Detergent tablets Detergent tablets of different manufacturers dissolve at different speeds, for this reason, during short programmes, some detergent tablets may be not fully effective, because they are not completely dissolved.
LOADING THE RINSE AID The rinse aid The rinse aid, which is automatically released during the last rinsing cycle, helps the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots and stains forming.

To open the lid, push the reference mark and, in the same time, pull the tab of opening. It is always advisable to use rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwasher.
CLEANING THE FILTERS The filter system (fig.A “4”) consists of: 1 a central container that traps the larger particles; a flat gauze that continuously filters the wash water; a micro filter, located beneath the gauze, that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a perfect rinse. ■ To achieve excellent results every time, the filters should be checked and cleaned after each wash. ■ To remove the filter unit, simply turn the handle anticlockwise (fig. 1).
PRATICAL HINTS How to make savings ■ If you want the dishwasher to give a complete wash, place the dishes in the dishwasher at the end of each meal and if necessary turn on the COLD RINSE cycle to soften the food remains and remove bigger particles of food from the new load of dishes.
