Filling with dishwasher  
salt  
5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clockwise  
until it stops with a click.  
Do not worry if water overflows from  
the unit when filling with salt, this is  
quite normal.  
Warning! Only use salt specifically  
designed for use in dishwashers. All  
other types of salt not specifically  
designed for use in a dishwasher,  
especially table salt, will damage the  
water softener. Only fill with salt just  
before starting one of the complete  
washing programmes. This will  
prevent any grains of salt or salty  
water, which may have been spilt,  
remaining on the bottom of the  
machine for any period of time, which  
may cause corrosion.  
The salt indicator light on the control  
panel can remain on for 2-6 hours after  
the salt has been replenished,  
assuming the dishwasher remains  
switched on. If you are using salt that  
takes longer to dissolve then this can  
take longer. The operation of the  
machine is not affected.  
Filling with rinse aid  
To fill:  
Warning! Only use branded rinse aid  
for dishwashers.  
Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with  
any other substances (e.g. dishwasher  
cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This  
would damage the appliance.  
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket  
and unscrew the cap of the salt container  
by turning it anticlockwise.  
2. Pour 1 litre of water into the container  
(this is necessary only before filling  
with salt for the first time).

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The dispenser holds about 110 ml of rinse  
aid, which is sufficient for between 16 and  
40 dishwashing cycles, depending upon  
the dosage setting.  
Rinseaidensuresthoroughrinsing, and  
spot and streak free drying.  
Rinse aid is automatically added during  
the last rinse.  
3. Ensure that the lid is closed after every  
refill.  
1. Open the container by pressing the  
release button (A).  
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling  
with an absorbent cloth to avoid  
excess foaming during the next wash.  
Adjusting the rinse aid  
dosage  
According to the finish and drying results  
obtained, adjust the doseofrinse aidbymeans  
of the 6 position selector (position 1=  
minimum dosage, position 6= maximum  
dosage).  
2. Add the rinse aid in the container. The  
maximum level for filling is indicated by  
"max".  
The dose is factory set in position 4.  
Increase the dose if there are drops of water  
or lime spots on the dishes after washing.  
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on  
the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife  
blades.

• Check if it's necessary to refill with  
dishwasher salt or rinse aid.  
• When loading the dishes andcutlery, please  
note:  
• Open the door and slide out the baskets to  
load the dishes.  
– Dishes and cutlery must not impede the  
rotation of the spray arms.  
• Load cutlery and dishes into the  
dishwasher.  
• Fill with dishwasher detergent.  
• Select a wash programme suitable for the  
cutlery and dishes.  
• Start the wash programme.  
– Load hollow items such as cups, glasses,  
pans, etc. with the opening downwards  
so that water cannot collect in the  
container or a deep base.  
– Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie  
inside one another or cover each other.  
– To avoid damage to glasses, they must  
not touch.  
– Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.  
Loading cutlery and  
dishes  
Sponges, household cloths and any object that  
can absorb water may not be washed in the  
dishwasher.  
• Plastic items and pans with non stick  
coatings have a tendency to retain water  
drops; these items will not dry as well as  
porcelain and steel items.  
• Before loading the dishes, you should:  
– Remove all left over food and debris.  
– Soften remnants of burnt food in pans  
• Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be  
loaded in the upper basket and arranged so  
they do not move.

• Plastic items that are not heat resistant.  
• Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed  
frequently.  
• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not  
temperature resistant.  
• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to  
discolour during washing: Residues, e.g. egg  
white, egg yolk and mustard often cause  
discolouring and staining on silver. Therefore  
always clean left-overs from silver immediately,  
if it is not to be washed straight after use.  
• Bonded cutlery items or dishes.  
• Pewter or copper items.

The lower basket  
The lower basket is designed to take  
saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery,  
etc.  
Serving dishes and large lids should be  
arranged around the edge of the basket,  
ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely.  
The cutlery basket  
Warning! Long bladed knives stored  
in an upright position are a potential  
hazard. Long and/or sharp items of  
cutlery such as carving knives must be  
positioned horizontally in the upper  
basket. Take care when loading or  
unloading sharp items such as knives.  
Forks and spoons should be placed in  
the removable cutlery basket with the  
handles facing downwards and the  
knives with their handles facing  
upwards  
The rows of prongs in the lower basket can  
lie flat to allow you to load pots, pans and  
bowls.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.c1om5. All Manuals Search And Download.  
If the handles protrude from the bottom of  
the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm,  
load the cutlery with the handles facing  
upwards. Mix spoons with other cutlery to  
prevent them from sticking together.  
For best results we recommend you use the  
cutlery grids. If the size and dimensions of the  
cutlery do not allow the use of the grids, they  
can be easily hidden or removed.  
Glasses with long stems can be placed upside  
down in the cup racks.  
The cup racks can be adjusted in three  
different positions to improve loading  
flexibility.  
The upper basket  
The upper basket is designed for saucers,  
salad bowls, cups, glasses, pots and lids.  
Arrange items on and underneath the cup  
racks so that water can reach all surfaces.

Before closing the door, ensure that  
the spray arms can rotate freely.  
Never lift or lower the basket on  
one side only.  
With the upper basket raised we  
recommend you adjust the cup  
racks in the lowest position.

Use of detergent  
Only use detergents specifically  
designed for use in dishwashers.  
Please observe the manufacturer’s  
dosing and storage recommendations  
as stated on the detergent packaging.  
Using no more than the correct  
amount of detergent contributes to  
reducing pollution.

Detergent tablets  
Detergent tablets from different  
manufacturers dissolve at different  
rates. For this reason, some detergent  
tablets do not attain their full cleaning  
power during short washing  
programmes. Therefore, please use  
long washing programmes when using  
detergent tablets, to ensure the  
complete removal of detergent  
residuals.

Download from Www.Somanuals.c2om1. All Manuals Search And Download.  
When the washing programme  
has finished, it is recommended  
that the dishwasher is unplugged  
and the water tap turned off.  
Unloading the dishwasher  
• Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The  
dishes should therefore be allowed to cool  
down before removing from the appliance.  
• Empty the lower basket first and then the  
upper one; this will avoid water dripping  
from the upper basket onto the dishes in  
the lower one.  
• Water may appear on the sides and the  
door of the dishwasher as the stainless steel  
will eventually become cooler than the  
dishes.  
Maintenance and cleaning  
Cleaning the filters  
The filters must be checked and cleaned from  
time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the  
washing result.  
Warning! Before cleaning the  
filters ensure that the machine is  
switched off.  
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket.  
2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a  
coarse filter (A), a microfilter (B) and a  
flat filter. Unlock the filter system using the  
handle on the microfilter.  
3. Turn the handle about 1/4 a turn  
anticlockwise and remove the filter  
system.

flat filter does not protrude above the  
base of the washing compartment.  
NEVER use the dishwasher  
without filters.  
Incorrect repositioning and fitting of  
the filters will produce poor washing  
results and will result in damage to the  
appliance.  
NEVER try to remove the spray  
arms.  
If residues of soil have clogged the  
holes in the spray arms, remove the  
debris with a cocktail stick.  
4. Take hold of the coarse filter (A) by the  
handle with the hole and remove from the  
microfilter (B).  
5. Clean all filters thoroughly under running  
water.  
6. Remove the flat filter from the base of the  
washing compartment and clean both  
faces thoroughly.  
External cleaning  
Clean the external surfaces of the machine  
and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If  
necessary use only neutral detergents. Never  
use abrasive products, scouring pads or  
solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc...).  
Internal cleaning  
Ensure that the seals around the door, the  
detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned  
regularly with a damp cloth.  
We recommend every 3 months you run the  
wash programme for heavy soiled dishes using  
detergent but without dishes.  
Prolonged periods of non-  
operation  
If you are not using the machine for a  
prolonged period of time you are advised to:  
1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the  
water.  
2. Leave the door ajar to prevent the  
formation of any unpleasant smells.  
7. Put the flat filter back in the base of the  
washing compartment and ensure that it  
fits perfectly.  
8. Place the coarse filter (A) in the  
microfilter (B) and press together.  
9. Put the filter combination in place and lock  
by turning the handle clockwise to the  
stop. During this process ensure that the

Frost precautions  
Avoid placing the machine in a location where  
the temperature is below 0°C. If this is  
unavoidable, empty the machine, close the  
appliance door, disconnect the water inlet  
pipe and empty it.  
Avoid over tilting the machine during  
transportation.  
Moving the machine  
If you have to move the machine (moving  
house, etc...):

hoses are not kinked or squashed.  
During all operations that involve accessibility  
to internal components the dishwasher has to  
be unplugged.  
Be sure that once the appliance has been  
installed, it is easily accessible for the service  
engineer in the event that a repair is required.  
If the dishwasher is later used as a free-  
standing appliance, the original worktop must  
be re-mounted.  
The plinth on free-standing appliances is not  
adjustable.  
Levelling  
Good levelling is essential for correct closure  
and sealing of the door. When the appliance  
is correctly levelled, the door will not catch on  
either side of the cabinet. If the door does not  
close correctly, loosen or tighten the  
adjustable feet until the machine is perfectly  
level.  
Water connections  
spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling  
tap such as the Press-block.  
The water pressure must be within the limits  
given in the "Technical data". Your local  
Water Authority will advise you on the  
average mains pressure in your area.  
Water inlet connection  
This appliance must be connected to a cold  
water supply.  
For making the connection itself, the coupling  
nut fitted to the machine’s inlet hose is  
designed to screw onto a 3/4" gas thread  
28  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The water inlet hose must not be kinked,  
crushed, or entangled when it is being  
connected.  
The appliance features inlet and drain hoses  
which can be turned either to the left or the  
right to suit the installation by means of the  
locknut. The locknut must be correctly  
fitted to avoid water leaks. (Attention!  
NOT all models of dishwashers have inlet and  
drain hoses provided with a locknut.)  
If the appliance is connected to new pipes or  
pipes which have not been used for a long  
time, you should run the water for a few  
minutes before connecting the inlet hose.  
DO NOT use connection hoses which  
have previously been used on an old  
appliance.  
The drain hose can face either to the right or  
left of the dishwasher.  
Ensure the drain hose is not bent or squashed  
as this could prevent or slow down the  
discharge of water.  
The sink plug must not be in place when the  
machine is draining as this could cause the  
water to syphon back into the machine.  
If you use a drain hose extension it must be  
no longer than 2 metres and its internal  
diameter must be no smaller than the  
diameter of the hose provided.  
Likewise the internal diameter of the  
couplings used for connections to the waste  
outlet must be no smaller than the diameter  
of the hose provided.  
This appliance has been fitted with  
safety features which will prevent the  
water used in the appliance from  
returning back into the drinking water  
system. This appliance complies with  
the applicable plumbing regulations.  
Water drain connection  
The end of the drain hose can be connected  
in the following ways:  
1. To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the  
underside of the work surface. This will  
prevent waste water from the sink running  
into the machine.  
2. To a stand pipe provided with venthole,  
minimum internal diameter 4 cm.  
The waste connection must be at a height of  
between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm  
(maximum) from the bottom of the  
dishwasher.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.c2om9. All Manuals Search And Download.  
When connecting the drain hose to an  
under sink trap spigot, the entire  
plastic membrane (A) must be  
removed. Failure to remove all the  
membrane will result in food particles  
building up over time eventually  
blocking the dishwasher drain hose  
spigot.  
Our appliances are supplied with a  
security device to protect against the  
return of dirty water back into the  
machine. If the spigot of your sink has  
a "no return valve" incorporated this  
can prevent the correct draining of  
your dishwasher. We therefore advise  
you to remove it. When connecting  
the drain hose to an under sink trap  
spigot, the entire plastic membrane  
(A) must be removed. Failure to  
remove all the membrane will result in  
food particles building up over time  
eventually blocking the dishwasher  
drain hose spigot
