Customer Service.
Important !
To ensure the correct operation of the anti-overflow safety device, it is recommended
not to move or to tilt the dishwasher during operation.
If it is necessary to move or to tilt the dishwaher, first make sure the washing cyle is
finished and that no water is left in the tank.

PRELIMINARY  OPERATIONS  AND  CLEANING  THE  FILTER  UNIT
The filtering system is composed of :
- a central filter cup which traps the largest food particles.
- a flat filter which continuously filters the washing water.
- the micro filter, situated under the flat filter, which traps the
smallest food particles ensuring a perfect rinse.
For best results, the filter unit should be checked and cleaned after each wash.
To remove the filter unit, simply grip the handle and lift the whole unit out.
The central cup is just resting on top for easy cleaning.
The dishwasher is fitted with a self cleaning micro filter, which only requires checking about
once every 15 days.
However, it is advisable to check after every wash, that the central cup and the flat filter
are not clogged.
NB : After cleaning the filters, make sure that they are correctly reassembled, one inside
the other, and that the flat filter is properly positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher.
A poor seating of the filter unit could have an adverse effect on the efficiency of the
appliance.
Important : Never use the dishwasher without filter.
LOADING DISHES
The basket has been carefully designed to make loading easy.
For good wash performance, remove any debris from the dishes (bones, tooth picks, the
remains of meat and vegetables) to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet and washing
arm nozzle and, as a result, reducing washing efficiency.
Warning ! to avoid any injury from cutlery with blades or sharp points, they can be placed
with the handles upwards.
LOADING A 6 PLACES SETTING (EN 50242)
A - 6 glasses F - 6 flat plates
B - 6 dessert plates G - 6 deep plates
C- 6 saucers H - Medium bowl
D- Small bowl I - Serving dish
E - 6 tea or coffee cups L - Cutlery
LOADING 4 PLACE SETTINGS PLUS CASSEROLES
Casseroles, salad bowls, soup pans, lids etc., can be loaded
on the basket.
It is advisable to arrange the cutlery in the basket provided
for that purpose. If there is any cutlery with narrow handles,
it should be placed with handles upwards, to avoid falling
through the bottom of the basket and blocking the washing
arm. Do not put wooden handled lids in the basket, or any
whose lids are bonded with resin.     
						

							43
LOADING  THE  DETERGENT
It is essential to use a detergent that is specifically designed for dishwashers either
in powder, liquid or tablet form.
Unsuitable detergents, (like those for washing up by hand) do not contain the proper
ingredients for use in a dishwasher and impede the efficient functioning.
Normal wash
The detergent dispenser is inside the door. The dispenser
lid should be closed before every wash.To open it, simply
press the catch. At the end of each wash cycle the lid is
always open and ready for the next time the dishwasher is
used.
The amount of detergent to be used varies according to
how dirty the dishes are and the type of wash. A 15g
dose is normally recommended. If the water is hard or the
dishes are exceptionally dirty, 25g of detergent should be
loaded. After pooring the detergent into the dispenser,
close the lid, since not all detergents are the same and the
instructions on the boxes of detergent can vary.
We should just like to remind users that too little detergent
does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much
detergent not only does not produce better results but is
also a waste. Do not use an excessive amout of detergent
and help limit damage to the environment at the same time.
Intensive washing
When using the intensive wash programme, add a second
dose of detergent of about 15g (1 soup spoonful).
This extra dose should be put in the curved part of the
dispenser when it is closed (see diagram).
FILLING  THE  RINSE  AID DISPENSER
The rinse aid dispenser B is to the right of the detergent
dispenser and has a capacity of about 130 ml.
Open the lid and pour in enough liquid, which will last
several washes. Try to avoid overloading. Close the lid.
This additive, which is automatically released during
the last rinse cycle, helps the dishes to dry quickly and
prevents spots and stains forming. It is always advisable
to use rinse aid.
Check the rinse aid level through the indicator eye A
which is situated in the centre of the dispensers.
          FULL - Dark                 EMPTY - Bright       
						

							44
REGULATING THE RINSE AID (from 1 to 6).
The regulator control B is below the indicator and can be turned with the finger, the
recommended position is 3.
The hardness of the water can be judged by incrustation or by the level of dryness.
It is therefore important that the correct dosage of Rinse Aid is regulated to give the best
results.
After the wash,
. if streaks occur on the dishes, decrease the amount by one position.
. if whitish spots occur, increase the amount by one position.
LOADING THE SALT
The dishwasher is fitted with a softener that clears the water of lime which could cause scale
and damage the dishwasher.
On the bottom of the diswasher there is a salt dispenser for regenerating the softener.
The filter element of the softener unit should be recharged with a salt specially produced for
dishwashers. This salt can be bought either as tablets or as granules.
To add salt, unscrew the cap of the salt dispenser on
the bottom and refill the dispenser.
During this operation a little water will overflow but keep
adding salt until the dispenser is fill, clean the thread of
salt residue and retighten the cap.
If the dishwasher is not required straightaway, set
the programme Cold rinse  (Eco+Rapid, 2 Leds)
so that the salt solution which has overflowed is
discharged from the washing tank.
The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 kg for
efficient use of the appliance, it should be refilled from
time to time according to the regulation of the water
softener unit.
NB: it is necessary to add water until the dispenser overflows. Only install the dishwasher
completely filling the salt dispenser.   
						

							45
Regulating the water softener with electronic programmer
The water softener can treat water with a hardness level of up to 60°Fh (French grading) or
33°Dh (German grading) through 5 settings.
The settings are listed in the panel below:
The softener unit is set in the factory at level 3 (indicator light N.3) as this is suitable for the
majority of users.
Regulate the setting of your water softener unit according to the degree of hardness of your
water as follows: Open the door, press On / Off button, within 2 minutes press and keep
pressed for at least 10 seconds the Programme Selection button; the first three LEDs on the
left turn on for 3 seconds.
The LED associated with the set water softener starts flashing; successive button pushing will
set the water hardness levels (see table).

SOME PRACTICAL HINTS .... To carry out a wash programme with a full load of dishes
load the machine correctly after each meal and do a cold pre-wash between each load
to get rid of stains and remove the larger residues of food.
HOW TO GET GOOD WASH RESULTS
1) Place the dishes face downwards.
2) Try to place the dishes in such a way that they are not touching one another. If they are
loaded properly you will get better results.
3) Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher remove any remaining food (bones,
shells, pieces of meat or vegetables, coffee grounds, skin of fruit, cigarette ash etc.) that
could clog up the outflow and the washing arm jets.
4) After loading the dishes, check that the washing arm can rotate freely.
5) Pans and other dishes that have particularly stubborn food particles or remnants of
burnt food should be left to soak in water with dishwasher detergent.
6) To wash silver properly:
a) - rinse the silver immediately after use especially if it has been used for
mayonnaise, eggs, fish etc.
b) - do not sprinkle detergent onto it.
c) - keep it seperate from other metals.
WHAT TO DO IF ...  You want to stop the dishwasher to put in more dishes whilst it is in
the middle of a wash. Open the door, put in the dishes, and close the door, the machine
will start up again automatically.
WHAT NOT TO WASH ...
It should also be remembered that not all dishes are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.
We advise again using the dishwasher to wash items in thermoplastic, cutlery with wooden
or plastic handles, saucepans with wooden handles, items in aluminium, crystal, leaded
glass unless otherwise stated.
Certain decorations may fade. It is therefore a good idea before loading the whole batch
to wash just one of the items first so as to be sure that others like it will not fade.
It is also a good idea not to put silver cultery with non-stainless steel handles into the
dishwasher as there could be a chemical reaction between them.
NB : when buying new crockery or cutlery always make sure that they are suitable for
washing in a dishwasher.
AFTER USE - After each wash, close the tap which supplies the water to the dishwasher and
press the On/Off button to the Off position.
If the dishwasher is not going to be used for some time, the following precautions are
advisable:
1 - carry out a wash programme, but with no dishes, to degrease the machine,
2 - pull the plug out,
3 - turn off the water supply tap,
4 - fill the rinse aid dispenser,
5 - leave the door slightly ajar,
6 - leave the inside of the machine clean,
7 - if the machine is to be left in a place where the temperature is below 0°C, the water left
in the dispenser could freeze.
Therefore, it is advisable to raise the temperature above 0°C, approximately 24 hours
before using the machine again. 
						

							48
WATER  CONNECTION  -  WATER  DRAINAGE
WATER CONNECTION :
The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right.
The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than
60°C.
Water pressure mut be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa. If the pressure is below the
minimum consult the service department for advice.
The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that the water supply can be cut off when the
machine is not in use (fig.1). The dishwasher inlet hose is fitted with a 3/4 threaded connector
(fig.2). The inlet hose A should be tightly connected to a 3/4 tap B.
The water connection of the dishwasher must be done exclusively with the pipe supplied. 
Do
not use an old pipe.
If lime scale deposits or sand are present in the water, it is advisable to obtain the appropriate
filter, art. 9226085, from the Service Centre (fig.3). The filter D must be inserted between the
tap B and the inlet hose A, remembering to fit the washer C.
If the machine is connected to new pipes or to pipes which have not been in use for long
time, run water through for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. In this way no
deposits of sand or rust will clog up the water inflow filter.
WATER DRAINAGE :
Take care not to bend or kink the drain hose when connecting it to the machine so that the
water can drain freely from it (fig.4y).
The drain hose must be at least 40 cm above floor level and it must have an internal diameter
af at least 4 cm. It is advisable to fit an anti-odour air trap (fig.4x).
If necessary, the outlet hose can be extended up to 2,6 m, provided that it is kept at a
maximum height of 85 cm above floor level. For this, contact Customer Service.   
						

							49
The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink (it must not be immersed in water, in
order to prevent water from being siphoned back to the machine when this is in operation).
Check that there are no kinks in the inlet and outlet hoses. To extend, if necessary the intlet
hose, contact the Customer Service.
