Detergent and Rinse Aid
Detergent
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
the door.
Loading the detergent
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.
After the detergent has been placed in the dispenser, close the
cover and press down until it clicks in place.

NOTE: To facilitate closing the cover, remove any excess
detergent on the edges of the dispenser.
Rinse Aid
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 every 80 wash cycle (or when the
rinse aid indicator light comes on for models with this feature).
Loading the Rinse Aid
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" dosage adjuster, located beneath the "C" cap,
with a screwdriver. There are 6 different settings; the normal
dosage setting is 3.
Important
Proper dosage of the rinse aid improves drying.
If drops of water remain on the dishes or spotting occurs, the
dosage adjuster should be turned to a higher setting.
If the dishes have white streaks, turn the dosage adjuster to a
lower setting.

Cleaning and Special Maintenance
Filter Assembly
For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be
cleaned.
The filter efficiently removes food particles 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 as-
sembly (made up of the "A" semicircular filter and the "B" fine
filter) should be cleaned at least once a month.
To clean the filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then,
reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figures below and
inset the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its
seat and pressing downward.
The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper
replacement of the filters may reduce performance of the appli-
ance and damage dishes and utensils.
Troubleshooting
It may occur that the dishwasher does not function properly or at
all. Before calling for assistance, Iet us see what can be done
first: Have you forgotten to press one of the buttons or to per-
form 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 POWER 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 houses on and has sufficient pressure;
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.
Cleaning the Spray Arms
It may happen that food particles become encrusted on the
sprayer arms and block the hole (see "Close up view [interior]" ,
letters C-E ). Check the sprayer arms periodically and clean them
when needed.

Cleaning the Water Inlet Filter
Periodically clean the water inlet filter located on the outlet of
the water supply tap.
After turning off the water tap, unscrew the end of the water
supply hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under run-
ning water. Then, return the filter to its place and tighten the
water supply hose back into position.
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 rinse aid dosage is correct.
If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not func-
tion and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorised
service agent 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 al-
low parts to be installed that are not original spare parts.
