important information regarding the safe installation, use  
and maintenance of the appliance.  
Disposal of old electrical appliances  
The European Directive 2012/19/EU on Waste  
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE), requires  
that old household electrical appliances must not be  
disposed of in the normal unsorted municipal waste  
stream. Old appliances must be collected separately  
in order to optimise the recovery and recycling of  
the materials they contain and reduce the impact on  
human health and the environment. The crossed out  
“wheeled bin” symbol on the product reminds you of  
your obligation, that when you dispose of the appliance  
it must be separately collected.  
This appliance is intended to be used in household  
and similar applications such as:  
- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working  
environments;  
- farm houses;  
- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type  
environments;  
- bed and breakfast type environments.  
General safety  
Consumers should contact their local authority or  
retailer for information concerning the correct disposal  
of their old appliance.  
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons  
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory  
or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and  
knowledge, unless they have been given supervision  
or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a  
person responsible for their safety.  
Saving energy and respecting the  
environment  
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they  
do not play with the appliance.  
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside  
the home and is not intended for commercial or  
industrial use.  
• The appliance must be used by adults only, to wash  
domestic crockery according to the instructions in  
this manual.  
Saving water and energy  
• Only start a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full.  
While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent  
unpleasant odours with the Soak cycle (see Wash  
Cycles).  
• Select a wash cycle that is suited to the type of  
crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using  
the Wash cycle table:  
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even  
in covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave  
the machine exposed to rain and storms.  
• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.  
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug  
from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.  
• The water supply tap must be shut off and the  
plug should be removed from the electrical socket  
before cleaning the appliance or carrying out any  
maintenance work.  
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any  
circumstances touch the internal parts in an attempt  
to carry out the repair work yourself.  
• Do not lean or sit on the open door of the appliance:  
this may cause the appliance to overturn.  
• The door should not be left open as it may create a  
dangerous obstacle.  
- for dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco  
wash cycle, which guarantees low energy and water  
consumption levels.  
- if the load is smaller than usual activate the Half  
load* option (see Start-up and use).  
• If your electricity supply contract gives details of  
electricity saving time bands, run wash cycles  
during the periods when a lower tariff is applied.  
The Delayed start* button (see Start-up and use)  
helps you organise the wash cycles accordingly.  
Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents  
containing enzymes  
• We strongly recommend that you use detergents  
that do not contain phosphates or chlorine, as  
these products are harmful to the environment.  
3

• Enzymes provide a particularly effective action  
at temperatures around 50°C, and as a result  
detergents containing enzymes can be used in  
conjunction with low-temperature wash cycles in  
order to achieve the same results as a normal 65°C  
wash cycle.  
GB  
• To avoid wasting detergent, use the product in  
appropriate quantities based on the manufacturer’s  
recommendations, the hardness of the water and the  
soil level and quantity of the crockery. Even if they  
are biodegradable, detergents contain substances  
that may alter the balance of nature.  
Recycling & Disposal Information  
As part of Hotpoint’s continued commitment  
to helping the environment, Hotpoint reserves the right  
to use quality recycled components to keep down  
customer costs and minimise material wastage.  
Please dispose of packaging and old appliances  
carefully.  
To minimise risk of injury to children, remove the door,  
plug and cut mains cable off flush with the appliance.  
Dispose of these parts separately to ensure that the  
appliance can no longer be plugged into a mains  
socket and the door cannot be locked shut.  
* Only available in selected models.

Installation  
The cable should not be bent or compressed.  
If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it  
in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be  
tilted onto its back.  
GB  
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced  
by the manufacturer or its Technical Assistance Service in order  
to prevent all potential hazards. (See After Sales Service)  
Positioning and levelling  
1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check that it  
has not been damaged during transportation.  
If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not proceed  
any further with the installation process.  
This appliance must be earthed.  
Fuses:your appliance comes fitted with a plug and a 13A fuse. If  
you need to replace the fuse, only those rated at 13A and ASTA  
approved to BS1362 should be used. If you lose the fuse cover, a  
replacement may be obtained from your local authorised Service  
Centre or Electrical company. Correct replacement is identified  
by colour coding or the marking on base of plug.  
2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or back  
panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or even with  
the wall. This appliance can also be recessed under a single  
worktop* (see the Assembly instruction sheet).  
DO NOT use the plug unless the fuse cover is fitted.  
3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the  
floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted  
until it reaches a horizontal position. If the appliance is levelled  
correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move or  
cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.  
Changing the Plug  
Cut off and dispose of the supplied plug if it does not fit your  
socket.  
To avoid a shock hazard DO NOT insert the discarded  
plug into a socket anywhere else.  
4*. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the  
appliance on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning  
a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a  
clockwise direction to increase the height or in an anticlockwise  
direction to decrease the height.  
Wires in the mains lead are coloured accordance with the  
following code:  
The dishwasher meets the requirements set out by the  
regulations in force concerning safety and electrical equipment.  
Green/Yellow - Earth  
Blue  
-

Any technical checks should be conducted exclusively by  
a trained and authorised technician: Repairs carried out by  
unaithorised persons will invalidate the guarantee, as well as  
posing a potential hazard to the user.  
If you change the plug, the colour of the wires in the mains lead  
may not correspond with the terminal markings in the plug, which  
if not coloured, could be:  
The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to  
persons or property resulting from failure to observe the above  
precautions, from tampering with even a single component or  
from the use of non-original spare parts.

Connecting the water supplies  
Connection to the water and electricity supplies should  
only be performed by a qualified technician.  
The dishwasher should not stand on top of the water  
hoses or the electricity supply cable.  
The outlet hose must be at a height ranging from 40 to 80 cm  
(from 15’’ to 31’’) from the floor/surface where the dishwasher  
rests (A).  
Connecting the water inlet hose  
The water inlet and outlet hoses and the electricity supply  
cable may be positioned towards the right or the left in order  
to achieve the best possible installation.  
• before connecting the drain hose, remove any internal  
restrictions; this will prevent a build up of debris which  
could cause a blockage  
• remove any restrictions from the waste spigot and ensure  
that the sealing bung is removed (B).  
• To a suitable cold water connection point: before attaching  
the hose, run the water until it is perfectly clear so that any  
impurities that may be present in the water do not clog the  
appliance; after performing this operation, screw the inlet  
hose tightly onto a tap with a ¾ gas threaded connection.  
It MUST NOT be connected to a surface water drain.  
Untie the end of the GREY drainage hose from the rear  
of the appliance.  
• To a suitable hot water connection point: your dishwasher  
may be provided with hot water from the mains supply (if  
you have a central heating system with radiators) provided  
that it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C.  
Screw the hose to the tap as described for connection to  
a cold water supply.

Advice regarding the first wash cycle  
Ensure the drain hose is securely  
attached, to prevent it coming away  
while the machine is in use and  
causing a flood.  
GB  
After the installation, remove the stoppers from the racks and the  
retaining elastic elements from the upper rack, if any.  
Immediately before the first washing, completely fill the salt  
dispenser with water and add only then approximately 1 kg of salt  
(see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may  
overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. Select  
the water hardness value (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and  
refined salt). - After the salt has been poured into the machine,  
the LOW SALT indicator light* switches off.  
Fit hose to waste securely using  
a “Jubilee” type clip.  
Anti-flooding protection*  
If the salt dispenser is not filled, the water softener and the  
heating element may get damaged as a result.  
To ensure floods do not occur, the dishwasher:  
- is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply  
in the event of anomalies or leaks from inside the appliance.  
The control panel features a “Touch Control” system;  
press the symbols lightly with your fingertips to activate  
the command.  
Some models are also equipped with the supplementary safety  
device New Acqua Stop*, which guarantees anti-flooding  
protection even in the event of a supply hose rupture.  
The machine has a buzzer/set of tones (depending on the  
dishwasher model) to inform the user that a command has  
been implemented: power on, cycle end etc.  
WARNING: HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE!  
Under no circumstance should the water inlet hose be cut as it  
contains live electrical parts.  
The symbols/indicator lights/LEDs on the control panel/  
display may vary in colour and may have a flashing or fixed  
light (depending on the dishwasher model).  
The Company shall not be held responsible for any incidents  
that occur if these regulations are not observed.  
The display provides useful information concerning the  
type of wash cycle, wash cycle phase, remaining time,  
temperature etc.  
SETTINGS button  
This button makes it possible to select:  
logo display, volume of buzzer/set of tones, language  
selection, rinse aid adjustment, water hardness adjustment,

Loading the racks  
Tips  
GB  
Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from the  
crockery and empty liquids from glasses and containers. No  
preventive rinsing is needed under running water.  
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place firmly and does  
not tip over and arrange the containers with the openings facing  
downwards and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely,  
thus allowing the water to reach every surface and flow freely.  
Make sure that the lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not  
prevent the sprayer arms from rotating. Place any small items  
in the cutlery rack.  
Upper rack  
Load this rack with delicate and lightweight crockery such as  
glasses, cups, saucers and shallow salad bowls.  
Since plastic dishes and non-stick frying pans usually retain more  
water drops, their drying will be not so good as that of ceramic  
or stainless-steel dishes.  
Lightweight items such as plastic containers should be placed  
in the upper rack and arranged so that they cannot move.  
After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms  
can rotate freely.  
Lower rack  
The lower rack can hold pans, lids, dishes, salad bowls, cutlery  
etc. Large plates and lids should be placed at the sides of the  
rack.  
Several dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sectors*. They  
can be used in a vertical position when arranging tea/dessert  
saucers or in a lower position to load bowls and food containers.  
The side tip-up dispensers can be positioned at three different  
heights to optimize the arrangement of crockery throughout  
the rack.  
Wine glasses can be placed safely in the tip-up dispensers, by  
inserting the stem of each glass into the corresponding slots.  
Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower rack  
because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow  
a higher washing performance.  
Several dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sectors*.  
They can be used in a vertical position when arranging dishes  
or in a horizontal position (lower) to load pans and salad bowls  
easily.  
*Only available in selected models with different numbers and  
positions.

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
The upper rack can be adjusted for height based on  
requirements: high position to place bulky crockery in the lower  
rack and low position to make the most of the tip-up dispensers/  
sectors by creating more space upwards.  
The geometry of the rack makes it possible to place such small  
items as coffee cups in the area in the middle.  
GB  
Adjusting the height of the upper rack  
In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper rack  
may be moved to a higher or lower position.  
The height of the upper rack should be adjusted WHEN THE  
RACK IS EMPTY.  
NEVER raise or lower the rack on one side only.  
The third basket is equipped with two sliding side trays to make  
the most of the height of the space below.  
If the rack is equipped with a Lift-Up device* (see figure), lift  
it up by holding its sides. To restore the lower position, press  
the levers (A) at the sides of the rack and follow the rack down.  
Third rack  
The third rack was designed to house the cutlery. Arrange the  
cutlery as shown in the figure.  
Unsuitable crockery  
Wooden crockery and cutlery.  
Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique  
crockery. Their decorations are not resistant.  
Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high  
temperatures.  
Copper and tin crockery.  
Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.  
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can  
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of  
glass (e.g. crystal objects) can become opaque after a number  
of wash cycles too.  
Damage to glass and crockery  
Caused by:  
A separate arrangement of the cutlery makes collection easier  
after washing and improves washing and drying performance.  
Type of glass and glass production process.  
Chemical composition of detergent.  
Water temperature of rinse cycle.  
Tips:  
• Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the  
manufacturer as dishwasher safe.  
Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery.  
Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as  
the wash cycle is over.

Start-up and use  
Starting the dishwasher  
Measuring out the detergent  
GB  
A good wash result also depends on the correct amount of  
detergent being used. Exceeding the stated amount does not  
result in a more effective wash and increases environmental  
pollution.  
1. Turn the water tap on.  
2. Press the ON/OFF button: The ON/OFF indicator light and  
the display light up.  
3. Open the door and pour in a suitable amount of detergent  
(see Measuring out the detergent).  
4. Load the racks (see Loading the racks) and shut the door.  
5. Select the wash cycle in accordance with the type of crockery  
and its soil level (see Table of wash cycles) by pressing the  
wash-cycle selection buttons.  
6. Select the wash options* (see adjacent information).  
7. Start the cycle by pressing the Start/Pause button: The wash  
indicator light comes on and the time left until the end of the  
cycle appears on the display.  
Based on how soiled the items are, the amount can  
be adjusted to individual cases using powder or liquid  
detergent.  
In the case of normally soiled items, use approximately either  
35 gr (powder detergent) or 35 ml (liquid detergent). If tablets  
are used, one tablet will be enough.  
If the crockery is only lightly soiled or it has been rinsed  
with water before being placed in the dishwasher, reduce  
the amount of detergent considerably.  
8. At the end of the cycle, the display shows End of Cycle.  
Switch off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button, shut  
off the water tap and unplug the appliance from the electricity  
socket.  
9. Wait for a few minutes before removing the crockery in order  
to avoid burns. Unload the racks, beginning with the lower level.  
For good washing results also follow the instructions shown  
on the detergent box. For further questions please ask the  
detergent producers' Advice Offices.  
If the detergent dispenser is still closed, use the closing  
device “A” to open it.  
- The machine will switch off automatically during long  
periods of inactivity in order to minimise electricity  
consumption.  
AUTO WASH CYCLES*:some dishwasher models are  
equipped with a special sensor which can be used to assess  
the level of soiling and automatically select the most efficient  
and economical wash cycle accordingly. The duration of the auto  
wash cycles may vary due to the operation of the sensor.  
Introduce the detergent into the dry dispenser “B” only.  
Place the amount of detergent for pre-washing directly  
inside the tub.  
Changing a wash cycle in progress  
If a mistake was made during the wash cycle selection process,  
it is possible to change the cycle provided that it has only just  
begun: once the wash cycle has started, switch off the machine  
by pressing and holding the ON/OFF/Reset button. Switch it  
back on using the same button and select the desired wash  
cycle and options.  
1. When measuring out the detergent refer to the Table of wash  
cycles to add the proper quantity. Compartment B comprises  
a level showing the maximum quantity of liquid or powder  
detergent that can be added to each cycle.  
2. Remove detergent residues from the edges of the dispenser  
and close the cover until it clicks.  
Adding extra crockery  
3. Close the lid of the detergent dispenser by pulling it up until  
the closing device is secured in place.  
The detergent dispenser automatically opens up at the right time  
according to the wash cycle.  
Press the Start/Pause button: the display shows PAUSE. Open  
the door, taking care to avoid the escaping steam, and place the  
crockery inside the dishwasher. Press the Start/Pause button: the  
cycle starts from the point at which it was interrupted.  
If all-in-one detergents are used, we recommend using the TABS  
option, because it adjusts the cycle so that the best washing  
and drying results are always achieved.  
If the delayed start has been set, at the end of the countdown  
the wash cycle will not start. It will stay in Pause mode.  
Only use detergent which has been specifically designed  
for dishwashers.  
Press the Start/Pause symbol to pause the machine; the  
wash cycle is stopped.  
At this stage it is not possible to change the wash cycle.  
DO NOT USE washing up liquid.  
Using excessive detergent may result in foam residue  
remaining in the machine after the cycle has ended.  
Accidental interruptions  
If the door is opened during the wash cycle, the text CLOSE THE  
DOOR appears on the display. If there is a power cut, the cycle  
stops. It starts again from the point at which it was interrupted  
once the door has been shut or the electricity supply restored.  
The use of tablets is only recommended for models which  
offer the MULTI-FUNCTIONAL TABLETS option.  
To achieve the best results from each washing and drying  
cycle, powder detergent, rinse-aid liquid and salt should  
be used.

Special wash cycles and Options  
Notes:  
Zone Wash  
This option makes it possible to carry out the wash  
cycle in the selected rack only. Select the wash  
GB  
Optimum performance levels when using the “Fast wash”  
and “Express 30’” cycles can be achieved by respecting the  
specified number of place settings.  
cycle and then press the ZONE WASH button: the selected  
rack lights up and the wash cycle starts in the selected rack  
only. Press the button again to deselect the option.  
To reduce consumption even further, only run the dishwasher  
when it is full.  
The option is available with the following wash cycles:  
Intensive and Normal.  
Note for Test Laboratories: for information on comparative EN  
testing conditions, please send an email to the following address:  
Select the option and the Intensive cycle to start the  
ULTRAINTENSIVE ZONE washing. This wash cycle is ideal  
for very soiled mixed loads, e.g. pans and saucepans, dishes  
with heavy encrustation or difficult-to-clean crockery (grater,  
vegetable mill, dirty cutlery). The spraying pressure is  
stronger and the washing temperature higher, thus ensuring  
optimum handling of stubborn stains.  
Wash options*  
The OPTIONS may only be set, changed or reset after  
the wash cycle has been selected and before the Start/  
Pause button has been pressed.  
Select the option and the Normal cycle to start the SAVING  
ZONE washing. This function makes it possible to reduce  
water and energy consumption, thus achieving excellent  
washing and drying results. Cycle duration is longer.  
Only the options which are compatible with the type of wash  
cycle set may be selected. If an option is not compatible  
with the selected wash cycle (see Table of wash cycles), the  
corresponding symbol flashes rapidly 3 times.  
Changes in the cycles are shown on the display. For optimum  
results and a shorter operating time, water and energy  
consumption is increased.  
If an option is selected which is not compatible with another  
(previously selected) option, it will flash 3 times and switch  
off, while the most recently selected option will remain active.  
To deselect an option which has been set by mistake, press  
the corresponding button again.  
Remember to load the crockery in the selected rack only.  
Half load  
If there are not many dishes to be washed, a half load  
cycle may be used in order to save water, electricity and  
detergent. Select the wash cycle and press the HALF LOAD  
button: the indicator light will illuminate.  
Delayed Start option  
It is possible to delay the start time of the cycle by a period  
of time between 1 and 24 hours:  
1. Select the desired wash cycle and any other options  
required. Press the DELAYED START arrows to select when  
the wash cycle is to start (1h, 2h etc.)  
Press the HALF LOAD button to deselect this option.  
Remember to halve the amount of the detergent.  
2. Confirm the choice using the START/PAUSE button: the  
countdown begins and the display shows Begins in ...  
3. Once this time has elapsed, the DELAYED START symbol  
switches off and the wash cycle begins.  
To deselect the DELAYED START option, press the DELAYED  
START button until the text OFF appears.  
Extra Drying option  
To improve the dryness level of the crockery, press the  
EXTRA DRYING button and the symbol will light up. If it is  
pressed again, the option will be deselected.  
A higher temperature during the final rinsing and a longer  
drying phase improve the dryness level.  
The Delayed Start function cannot be set once a wash  
cycle has been started.  
The EXTRA DRYING option results in a longer wash  
cycle.  
Option Multi-functional tablets (Tabs)  
This option optimises washing and drying results.  
When using multi-functional tablets, press the MULTI-  
FUNCTIONAL TABLETS button; the corresponding symbol  
will light up. If the button is pressed again, the option will  
be deselected.  
Short Time option  
This option can be used to reduce the duration of the main  
wash cycles while maintaining the same washing and drying  
performance levels.  
Having selected the option, press the Short Time button. To  
deselect the option, press the same button again.  
The “Multi-functional tablets” option results in a  
longer wash cycle.  
The use of tablets is only recommended for models  
having this option and it is not recommended with wash  
cycles which do not specify the use of multi-functional  
tablets (see Table of options.)

Rinse aid and refined salt  
Only use products which have been specifically designed  
for dishwashers.  
Do not use table/industrial salt or washing-up liquid.  
Follow the instructions given on the packaging.  
and optimises washing performance in accordance with the  
water hardness level in your area. This information can be  
obtained from your local water supplier.  
Switch on the dishwasher using the ON/OFF button, press the  
Settings button and access the menu “Water hardness” using  
the buttons next to the grey arrows. The set level appears on  
the display (water softener set to medium level).  
Use the buttons next to the grey arrows to select the desired  
level (1-2-3-4-5* see Table on water hardness) up to maximum  
5 levels. Press the OK button to save the setting.  
GB  
If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add  
any rinse aid. However, we recommend that you add salt,  
especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or  
very hard. (Follow the instructions given on the packaging.)  
If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and  
LOW RINSE AID indicator lights will stay lit.  
- To exit the function wait a few seconds, press the ESC button  
or switch off the machine using the ON/OFF button.  
Even if using multi-functional tablets, the salt dispenser should  
still be filled.  
Measuring out the rinse aid  
Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs off  
the surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks  
or marks. The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:

1. Open the dispenser “D” by pressing and pulling up the tab  
on the lid;  
Measuring out the refined salt  
In order to obtain the best possible results from a wash cycle,  
make sure that the salt dispenser is never empty.  
Refined salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding  
the formation of deposits on crockery.  
2. Carefully introduce the rinse aid as far as the maximum  
reference notch of the filling space - avoid spilling it. If this  
happens, clean the spill immediately with a dry cloth.  
3. Press the lid down until you hear a click to close it.  
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.  
The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher  
(see Description) and should be filled:  
• When the LOW RINSE AID indicator light on the control panel  
Rinse-aid dispenser setting  
is illuminated *;  
If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you  
can adjust the quantity of rinse aid. Switch on the dishwasher  
using the ON/OFF button, press the Settings button and access  
the menu “Rinse-aid dispenser setting” using the buttons next  
to the grey arrows. The set level appears on the display (set to  
factory level).  
Choose the desired level and press the OK button to save the  
setting. To exit the function wait a few seconds, press the ESC  
button or switch off the machine using the ON/OFF button.  
If the rinse aid level is set to ZERO, no rinse aid will be supplied.  
The LOW RINSE AID indicator light will not illuminate if you run  
out of rinse aid.  
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the cap (anticlockwise.)  
2. The first time you do this: fill the water  
tank right up to its edge.  
3. Position the funnel* (see figure) and  
fill the salt dispenser up to the edge  
(approximately 1 kg.) It is normal for a little  
water to leak out.  
4. Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt  
residues away from the opening; rinse the cap under running  
water and then screw it on, the head facing downwards so as to  
let the water flow out of the four slots (star-shaped arrangement)  
in the lower part of the cap (cap with green float*.)  
It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add  
salt to the dispenser.  
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly so that no detergent can  
get into the container during the wash cycle (this could damage  
the water softener beyond repair.)  
Up to maximum 4 levels can be set based on the dishwasher  
model.  
If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustment device  
to a lower number (1-2.)  
If there are drops of water or limescale marks, set the  
adjustment device to a higher number (3-4.)  
When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash cycle  
so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the salt  
dispenser is removed.  
Setting the water hardness  
Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by  
using refined salt designed specially for this type of appliance,  
supplies water without limescale which is then used to wash  
the crockery.  
This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce pollution

Care and maintenance  
Shutting off the water and electricity  
supplies  
Cleaning the filters  
GB  
The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food  
residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water.  
They should be cleaned if you wish to achieve the best results  
in every wash.  
Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid leaks.  
Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and when  
performing maintenance work.  
Clean the filters regularly.  
Cleaning the dishwasher  
The dishwasher should not be used without filters or if the  
filter is loose.  
The external surfaces of the machine and the control panel  
can be cleaned using a non-abrasive cloth which has been  
dampened with water. Do not use abrasive detergents or .  
solvents.  
• After several washes, check the filter assembly and if necessary  
clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-metallic  
brush and following the instructions below:  
1. Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise direction and  
pull it out (fig. 1).  
Any marks on the inside of the appliance may be removed  
using a cloth dampened with water and a little vinegar.  
2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the  
side flaps (fig. 2);  
3. Slide out the stainless-steel plate filter A. (fig. 3).  
4. Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. NEVER  
REMOVE the wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) (fig.4).  
Preventing unpleasant odours  
Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in order to avoid  
moisture from forming and being trapped inside the machine.  
Clean the seals around the door and detergent dispensers  
regularly using a damp sponge. This will avoid food becoming  
trapped in the seals, which is the main cause behind the  
formation of unpleasant odours.  
Cleaning the sprayer arms  
Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayer arms  
and block the holes used to spray the water. It is therefore  
recommended that you check the arms from time to time and  
clean them with a small non-metallic brush.  
The two sprayer arms may both be removed.  
To remove the upper sprayer  
arm, turn the plastic locking ring  
in an anti-clockwise direction.  
The upper sprayer arm should be  
replaced so that the side with the  
greater number of holes is facing  
upwards.  
The lower sprayer arm can be  
removed by pressing on the side  
tabs and pulling it upwards.  
After cleaning the filters, re-place the filter assembly and fix it in  
position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient  
operation of the dishwasher.  
Leaving the machine unused for extended  
periods  
Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply and shut  
off the water tap.  
Cleaning the water inlet filter*  
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended  
period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of  
impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this  
precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked  
and damage the dishwasher.  
Leave the door of the appliance ajar.  
• When you return, run a wash cycle when the dishwasher is  
empty.  
Clean the water inlet filter at the tap outlet regularly.  
- Turn off the water tap.  
- Unscrew the end of the water inlet hose, remove the filter and  
clean it carefully under running water.  
- Re-place the filter and screw the water hose back into position.
