User instructions 3.3 Wash programs Before starting a wash program, check that: The water supply tap is open. The softener container contains regenerating salt. The correct amount of detergent has been added to the dispenser. The baskets have been correctly loaded. The spray arms are able to rotate freely and without obstruction. The dishwasher door is firmly closed.
User instructions As the program runs, the front display, which shows the program phases, will indicate the status of the cycle in progress. Prewash Wash Rinse Drying Warning: during the initial phase of the wash program the spray arms cannot be heard in operation because they start turning about 5 minutes after the start. This is the normal wash cycle sequence.
User instructions SPREAD HALF LOAD (not compatible with the soak program) When there are not many dishes to be washed, the “spread half load” option, controlled by the button is useful to save water and electricity and reduces the program’s duration. Spread dishes across both baskets; the detergent dispenser should be loaded with less than the normal amount for a full load.
User instructions DELAYING THE PROGRAM The start of the wash program can be delayed to program the dishwasher to operate at the preferred time of day (e.g. overnight). Press the PROGRAM DELAY button to activate the option and show a 1 hour delay on the display. Keep pressing to select the delay required, which may be up to 24 hours. During programming, the delay selected is shown on the top display. To reset the delay selected, hold the button down until 0h appears on the display.
User instructions TO REDUCE DETERGENT CONSUMPTION AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent save on electricity as well, observe the following recommendations: Sort your dishes, washing delicate items separately from those more resistant to strong detergents and high temperatures. Do not pour detergent directly onto dishes.
User instructions 4. Operating instructions Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows: 4.1 Adjust the water softening system; Add the regenerating salt; Add the rinse aid and detergent. Using the water softening system The amount of scale contained in the water (water hardness index) can cause whitish staining on the dry dishes, which tend to become dull over time.
User instructions Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time, may damage the water softening system. When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.
User instructions WATER HARDNESS TABLE (on some models only) WATER HARDNESS German degrees (°dH) French degrees (°dF) 0-6 7 - 10 11 - 15 16 - 21 22 - 28 29 - 35 36 - 50 0 - 11 12 - 18 19 - 27 28 - 37 38 - 50 51 - 62 63 - 90 SETTING h.-0 NO SALT h.-1 h.-2 h.-3 h.-4 h.-5 h.-6 Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.
User instructions ADDING THE RINSE AID The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the formation of scale deposits and staining; it is automatically added to the water during the final rinse cycle, from the container situated on the inner side of the door. To add rinse aid: Open the door. Rotate the container cap anticlockwise by ¼ of a turn and remove it. Add the rinse aid until the container is full (approximately 140 cc).
User instructions ADDING THE DETERGENT To open the detergent dispenser cap, lightly press the button P. Add the detergent and close the cap carefully. During the washing cycle, the dispenser will be opened automatically. 26 When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on models). Use only detergents specially formulated for dishwashers.
User instructions The introduction of detergent into the rinse aid dispenser, even in liquid form, will damage the dishwasher. 4.3 General warnings and recommendations Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the following recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and their loading. There are generally no constraints on the washing of domestic dishes, but in certain cases it is necessary to take their characteristics into account.
User instructions WARNING! Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot tip over or obstruct the rotation of the spray arms during the washing cycle. Do not place very small objects in the baskets as these could fall and obstruct the spray arms or the wash pump. Containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots should always be loaded with the opening facing downwards and with any cavities at an angle, to allow the water to drain out.
User instructions 4.4 Using the baskets The dishwasher has a capacity of 15 place-settings, including serving dishes. LOWER BASKET The lower basket receives the full force of the lower spray arm, and should therefore be used for the “toughest” items with a heavier degree of soiling. All types and combinations of loads are permitted, provided that the dishes, pots and pans are arranged with all the soiled surfaces exposed to the water jets coming from the bottom.
User instructions Supports for cups and long objects (ladles, spoons, etc.), in the rear; can be tipped to the vertical position when not in use. Glass holder. Support for longstem glasses. When lifted out of the stowed position (0) it snaps into three different positions (1-2-3). 2-position fold-down supports (1-2). In position 1 (vertical) they can be used to take plates, while in position 2 (slanted) they provide support for long-stem glasses which will be held in place by the glass holder.
User instructions To lie completely flat, lift the end and turn it towards you so that the retainer F rotates into place above point S. LOADING THE LOWER BASKET Carefully load flat plates, soup plates, dessert and serving dishes, positioning them vertically. Pots, pans and their covers must be loaded upside down. When loading soup plates and dessert bowls, be sure to leave a gap between them.
User instructions FLEXI DUO TOP RACK (on some models only) This comprises two independent sliding, pull-out tray racks for easier loading/unloading of cutlery. Various loading systems and configurations are possible.
User instructions CUTLERY BASKET The basket has removable top grids into which items of cutlery should be inserted to keep them properly spaced and allow water to pass between them effectively. The top grids and central lid are in the bag of accessories. The central lid functions as a lid only. The top grids can be detached and used separately. The cutlery should be arranged in an orderly manner inside the basket, with the handles pointing downwards.
User instructions UPPER BASKET It is recommended to load the upper basket with small- or medium-sized items such as glasses, small plates, tea or coffee cups, shallow bowls and light objects made from heat resistant plastic. If the upper basket is used in the lowermost position, it can also be loaded with serving dishes, provided they are only slightly soiled. LOADING THE UPPER BASKET Load plates facing forward; cups, bowls etc. must always be facing downwards.
User instructions Depending on the models, the basket may be equipped with some or all of the following accessories: Supports for cups or long objects (ladles, spoons…), on the left; can be tipped to the vertical position when not in use. Long-stemmed glass holder, on the left; to use, simply lift and fix onto the hooks provided. Cutlery racks, on the right, designed for knives and teaspoons; for teaspoons, pull out the sliding support. The racks can be tipped to the vertical position when not in use.
User instructions ADJUSTING THE UPPER BASKET The height of the top basket can be adjusted to allow large dishes or pans to be placed in the bottom basket. The adjustment procedure may be type A or B, depending on the dishwasher model purchased. Version A: pull-out with adjustment in two positions. Pull out both the basket guides. Remove the stops, first releasing them as shown in the diagram. Pull out the basket.
User instructions 5. Cleaning and maintenance Before carrying out any work, always unplug the appliance from the electrical supply or switch off the all-pole disconnection device. 5.1 General warnings and recommendations Avoid the use of acidic or abrasive detergents. Clean the outer surfaces and door-lining of the dishwasher regularly using a soft cloth moistened with water or with a normal detergent suitable for painted surfaces. Clean the door gaskets with a damp sponge.
User instructions CLEANING THE FILTER UNIT It is advisable to periodically inspect the centre filter C and, if necessary, to clean it. To remove the filter, grip the tabs, turn them anticlockwise and lift upwards; push the centre filter D from the underside to remove it from the microfilter: separate the two parts which make up the plastic filter by pressing the body of the filter in the zone shown by the arrows; remove the centre filter by lifting it upwards.
User instructions BEFORE STARTING THE DISHWASHER AFTER PROLONGED DISUSE: Check that there are no deposits of sludge or rust inside the water pipe: if there are, allow the water to run from the water supply tap for a few minutes. Plug the power cord back into the socket. Reconnect the water intake hose and open the tap again.
User instructions If the dishes fail to dry or remain dull, check that: there is rinse aid inside the special container; the rinse aid dispenser setting is correct; the detergent used is of good quality and has not lost its effectiveness (for example, through incorrect storage, with the box left open). If the dishes show signs of streaking, staining, etc., check that: the rinse aid dispenser setting is not too high.
User instructions Only for models with this type of lock. If the door does not close: 1 - Check the position of the door lock catch (D) 2 - If necessary, raise it by adjusting the plastic screw (V) next to the catch. 3 - Check the condition of the lock hook; if it has not triggered (reference N), the door opens and closes normally.
