Troubleshooting

It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does not
function properly. Before calling for assistance, Iet us see what
can be done first: have you forgotten to press one of the buttons
or to perform an essential operation?
The Dishwasher Does Not Start
Have you checked whether:
- the plug is pushed into the socket correctly;
- the power is on in the house;
- the door is closed properly;
- the ON-OFF switch is on "ON";
- the water supply is turned on.
The Dishwasher Does Not Load Water
Have you checked whether:
- the water is turned on and the hose is connected properly;
- the water supply to the house is on and has sufficient pressure;
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.
The Dishes Are Not Clean
Have you checked whether:
- the water is turned on and the hose is connected properly;
- the water supply to the house is on and has sufficient pressure;
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.
The Dishwasher Does Not Drain
Have you checked whether:
- the drain hose is crimped or bent.
Lime Deposits or a White Film Form on the Dishes
Have you checked whether:
- the lid to the salt container is closed properly;
- the rinse aid dosage is correct.
Error Messages
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 message continues, call for
technical assistance, indicating which message appeared.
If any of the other indicator lights begins to blink rapidly, turn off
the appliance and call for technical assistance, indicating which
light began to blink.
If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not function
and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorised ser-
vice centre and provide them with the following information:
- the nature of the problem;
- the model type number (Mod...) And the
serial number (S/N...), which are indicated on the plate located
on the side of the inner part of the door.
Never call on unauthorised technicians and refuse to
allow parts to be installed that are not original spare
parts.

Installation

Positioning the Appliance
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 to facilitate
proper installation.
Levelling the Appliance
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in
or out) to adjust the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the
appliance should not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is
level, it will help ensure 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.2).
Some models are fitted with an "Aquastop" water supply hose (see
fig.1) in which the small filter is already housed in the threaded end.
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 can get blocked and damage the appliance.
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 60
In this case,the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 min-
utes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.
The connection must be made to the hot water line following the
same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water line.
Anti-Flooding Protection
The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply of
water in the event of a problem with the water supply hose, or leaks
within the unit, in order to prevent damage to your home. If for any
reason the box containing the electrical components happens to get
damaged, remove the plug for the appliance from the socket
immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flooding feature op-
erates properly, the "A" box with water supply hose must be at-
tached to the water supply tap as shown in Fig .1. No other type of
connection is acceptable.
The water supply hose must not, under any circumstances, be cut,
as it contains electrical parts which are live. If the length of the hose
is not adequate to make a proper connection, the hose must be
replaced with one which is long enough. This hose is available upon
request from specialised retailers and service centres.
Drain Hose Connection
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 ap-
pliance (see fig.3). The free end of the hose must be at a height
between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.
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.
Electrical Connection
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the cur-
rent 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 requirement 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 using adap-
tors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.
Caution:
The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when
the appliance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance
can be done safety.
