Detergent and Rinse Aidꢀꢀ
Detergent
Rinse Aid
Detergent specifically intended for use with dishwashers must
be used. The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each
wash cycle following the instructions provided in the "Wash Cycle
Table". The detergent dispenser is located on the inside panel of
the door.
This product makes dishes sparkle and helps them to dry with-
out spotting. The dispenser is located on the inside panel of the
door and should be filled after approx every 80 wash cycles (or
when the "low rinse aid" indicator light comes on for those mod-
els with this feature).
Loading the detergent
Loading the Rinse Aid
To open the "A" cover on the dispenser, press the "B" button.
The detergent for the wash cycle should be poured into the "C"
compartment.
Regardless of the type of detergent dispenser installed on your
appliance, you must proceed as indicated below when loading
the rinse aid.
After the detergent has been placed in the dispenser, close the
cover and press down until it clicks into place.
To open the dispenser, turn the "C" cap in an anti-clockwise
direction and then pour in the rinse aid, making sure not to overfill.
The amount of rinse aid used for each cycle can be regulated by
turning the "F" dose adjustor, located beneath the "C" cap, with
a screwdriver. There are 6 different settings; the normal dosage
setting is 1.
C
A
Important
Proper dosage of the rinse aid improves drying.
If drops of water remain on the dishes or spotting occurs,
the dosage adjustor should be turned to a higher setting.
If the dishes have white streaks, turn the dosage adjustor
to a lower setting.
B
Notice: To enable the cover to close, remove any ex-
cess detergent from the edges of the dispenser.

Loading the Dishwasher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food
particles to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which re-
sults in reduced performance.
Lower Rack
Upper Rack
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to
remove, we recommend that they are soaked before washed. This
will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.
Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.
How to use the lower rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on
the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as
shown in the figure to the right.
Load for 12 Standard Settings
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the
racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.
- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
- The lower rack features fold down tine rows (see fig.A) so that
larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.
- The silverware basket can be halved (see fig.B) so that only
one section may be used when the silverware load is light. This
also makes space for additional pots and pans and it can also be
placed in the upper rack.
- Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the
handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons
should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Long
utensils should be placed in a horizontal position in the upper
rack.
fig.A
fig.B
How to use the upper rack
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter
dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls
and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
- Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved
by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs lo-
cated on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.C).
Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have more
space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in the bottom
basket.
fig.C
fig.D
Shelf
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf-not
against other items to be washed.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack.
The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required(see
fig.D).
Knife rack
The knife rack clips onto the side of the top basket, giving you the
freedom to wash your large sharp knives separately and out of
fig.E
harm’s way (see fig.E).

Starting the Appliance
Starting a wash cycleꢀ
At the end of the wash cycle...
After having completed all of the installation steps in the preced-
ing paragraphs, turn on the water to the unit, partially open the
door of the dishwasher, and press the ON-OFF button "A" lo-
cated on the control panel. The "B" indicator light will come on.
At this point, the appliance is on and ready to be programmed.
Six beeps will indicate that the wash cycle has finished and the
cycle indicator light “F” will begin to extinguish. Open the door,
turn off the appliance using the ON/OFF switch and turn off the
water supply to the unit. Wait a few minutes before removing the
dishes so as to avoid handling them while still hot (when they
are more susceptible to breakage) and to get better drying results.

Cancelling or changing a cycle while underway...
Premise: A cycle that is underway can only be changed if it has
only been running for a short time.
.last press, all light indicators will extinguish and you can reset.
After selecting the delay time, the wash cycle can be set, as
explained in "Starting a wash cycle..." There will be a short acous-
tic signal, and at this point the delay period will begin to count
down. During this period the delay indicator light (I) will blink. At
the end of the delay time, the indicator will stop blinking and the
cycle will start.
Otherwise, the detergent may have already been used, and the
appliance may have already drained the wash water. If this is the
case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the paragraph
entitled, "Loading the Detergent").
To change the cycle currently underway, open the door, press
the "G" programming button and hold it in for about 5 seconds.
Once the cycle has been cancelled, the dishwasher will emit a

If necessary, they can be cancelled by pressing cycle selector
"P" for about 5 seconds.
b) If the power to the appliance goes off or the door is opened
during the delay period, the clock will stop the countdown. It will
start again when the power has come back on, or when the door
has been closed.
To set a new wash cycle, follow the instructions contained in the
paragraph entitled, "Setting and Starting a Wash Cycle."
Wash Cycle Adjustment Buttons

Energy Saving Tips
-It is important to try and run the dishwasher when it is fully
loaded in order to save on energy. In order to prevent odors
from forming and food from caking onto the dishes, you can run
the soak cycle.
-Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much deter-
gent, the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather, a greater
negative impact on the environment.
-Choose the right wash cycle: the choice of cycle depends on
the type of dishware, cookware and utensils being washed and
how dirty they are.
How to keep Your Dishwasher in Shape
After Every Wash
When You Go on Holiday
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and
leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not
trapped inside.
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash
cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from
the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the
appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and
prevent odours from forming within the appliance.
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the
plug from the socket. Do not run risks.
Moving the Appliance
No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not
use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, use only a
cloth and warm soapy water.
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position.
If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.
Seals
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a
cloth dampened with water and a little while vinegar, or cleaning
product made specifically for dishwashers.
One of the factors that cause odours to form in the dishwasher is
food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a
damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
Cleaning and Special Maintenance
Filter Assembly
Cleaning the Spray Arms
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be
cleaned frequently.
ꢀCheck the spray arms periodically and clean them when
needed.ꢀ
The filter efficiently removes food residue from the wash water,
allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it
is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the
filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the "A" semi-circular filter
and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull
on the cup handle in an upward direction. The entire filter assem-
bly (made up of the "A" semicircular filter and the "B" fine filter)
should be cleaned at least once a week.
A
B
To clean the filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then,
reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures below and
reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its
seat and pressing downward.
Cleaning the Water Inlet Filter
Periodically clean the water inlet filter (see figure) located on the
outlet of the water supply tap.
After turning off the water tap, unscrew the end of the water sup-
ply hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running
water. Then, return the filter to its place and tighten the water
supply hose back into position.
The dishwasher must never be used with-
out the filters. Improper replacement of
the filters may reduce the performance
level of the appliance and damage dishes
and utensils.

Troubleshooting
Error Messages
If the dishwasher does not function or does not function properly.
Before calling for assistance, check to see what can be done
first: have you forgotten to press one of the buttons or to per-
form an essential operation?
The dishwasher is equipped with a safety system that is able to
detect operating problems and malfunctions. These malfunctions
are signalled by the rapid blinking of one of the "M" program LEDs.
Only in the case where the indicator light for the soak cycle (see
table for cycles) blinks rapidly should you cancel the cycle as
described in the section entitled, "Changing a Cycle while Under-
way." Then check to make sure that there is water in the mains
and that the tap is turned on. If the problem continues, call for
technical assistance, indicating which light was flashing.
If any of the other indicator lights begin to blink rapidly, turn off
the appliance and call for technical assistance, advising which
lights were flashing.

Installation
Positioning the Appliance
Drain Hose Connection
Positioning the appliance in the desired location. The back should
rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent
cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply
and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left of
the appliance.
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter
of 4cm, Or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending
or crimping it. Use the special plastic support that comes with
the appliance (see fig.2). The free end of the hose must be at a
height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in
water.
Levelling the Appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them
in or out) to adjust the level of the dishwasher. The appliance
should not be inclined more than 2˚. If it is level, it will help en-
sure proper performance.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas)
connector, making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.1).
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended
period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is
clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there
is a risk that the water inlet filter may get blocked and damage
the appliance.
fig.2
Hot Water Connection
The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the
house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as
long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60ꢀ.
In this case,the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15
minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.
Attention:
The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the
wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to
spill outside the drain.
The connection must be made to the hot water line following the
same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water
line.
Electrical Connection
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the
current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate
(located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and
that the electrical system is correct for the maximum voltage on
the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is
earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety re-
quirement mandated by law).
If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected
is not appropriate for the plug, replace the plug, rather than us-
ing adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and
burns.
fig.1
Caution:
The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appli-
ance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be
done safety.
