  • Page 5: Before Use

    Before use Before using your dishwasher for the first time: 1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions. 2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance. 3. Set the water softener. 4. Pour half a litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with salt.
  • Page 6: Filling With Salt

    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 (not the Rinse and Hold programme).
  • Page 7: Rinse Aid

    Rinse aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, spot and streak free drying. The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.
  • Page 8: Using Your Appliance

    Using your appliance Loading your appliance Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing the performance. Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets. Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
  • Page 9: The Upper Basket

    The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses. Arrange items on and underneath the fold-down cup rack so that water can reach all surfaces. Glasses with long stems can be placed upside down in the raised cup racks.
  • Page 10: Use Of Detergent

    Use of detergent Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. If using powder detergents proceed as follows: 1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D). 2. Add the detergent according to the recommendations in the programme chart. As all detergents are not the same, you should also consult the instructions on the packet.
  • Page 11: Hints And Tips

    Hints and tips To save energy Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing. If necessary run the Rinse and Hold programme (see "Washing Programmes" chart) so that any food scraps do not become caked on the dishes while you are waiting to run the complete wash programme.

  • Page 20: Installation Instructions

    If possible, position the machine next to a water tap and a drain. Water supply connections This dishwasher may be fed with either hot (max. 60°C) or cold water. Nevertheless we advise a cold water supply. A hot water supply is not always efficient with very soiled crockery as it shortens the washing programmes.

    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. The drain hose can face either to the right or left of the dishwasher Ensure the hose is not bent or squashed as this could prevent or slow down the discharge of water.
