Not suitable for the dishwasher
What you should not put into the dishwasher
Cutlery and tableware manufactured in whole or part from wood.They become faded and unsightly in
appearance.Furthermore,the adhesives that are used are not suitable for the temperature that occur
inside the dishwasher.Delicate decorative glassware and vases,special antique or irreplaceable china.
The decorative patterns on such items will not be dishwasher-proof.
Plastic objects that are not resistant to hot water, copper and pewter utensils are also not suitable.
Decorative patterns printed or painted onto the surface of crockery, glasses, etc.,aluminium and silver
items tend to become discoloured or faded if washed in the diswasher. Some types of glass can become
opaque in appearance after they have been washed many times in a dishwasher. Highly absorbent
materials, such as sponges and towels,should never be placed in the dishwasher.
Our recommendation
In future, only purchase table or kitchenware that has been confirmed as being dishwasher-proof.
Important
Dishes or cutlery that have been soiled by tobacco ash, wax,
Iubricating grease or paint, should not be put in the dishwasher.
Damage to glassware and other dishes
Possible causes
type of glass or manufacturing process
chemical composition of detergent
water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.
Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been marked ‘dishwasher-proof’ by the manufacture.
Use a mild detergent that is described as ‘kind to dishes’. If necessary, seek further information from
detergent manufacturers.
Select a programme with a low  temperature and a short  duration as possible.
To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the
programme has ended.

Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove larger food particles to prevent the filter from be-
coming clogged, which results in reduced performance.
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they are
soaked before washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles.
Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.
How to use the lower rack
We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items
on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls,
as shown in the figure to the right.
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of
the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray
arm.
Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down
(see fig.D) .
fig.D Normal daily  load
fig.E
Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.
The silverware basket can be doubled (see fig.E) so that
only one section may be used when the silverware load is
light. This also makes space for additional pots and pans
and it can also be placed in the upper rack.
Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with
the handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the
spoons should be located individually into the appropriate
slots. Especially long utensils should be placed in the hori-
zontal position at the front of the upper rack.
Warning
knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the
basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.
 
						

							12
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter
dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small
bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).
How to use the upper rack
fig.G fig.F
Shelf
Lean tall glasses and those with long stems against the shelf-
not against other items to be washed.
Place glasses, cups and small bowls on the additional cup rack.
The additional cup rack can be swivelled in or out as required
(see fig.G).
Adjust the upper basket to the higher level and you have
more space to accommodate those taller pans and trays in
the bottom basket.Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get
moved by the spray of water.
The upper rack can be adjusted for height by using the knobs
located on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.F).
Knife rack
The knife rack clips onto the side of the top basket, giving you
the freedom to wash your large sharp knives separately and
out of harm’s way (see fig.H).

Washing dishes
Programme selection
The most appropriate programme can be identified by comparing the type of crockery, cutlery, etc., as
well as the amount and condition of food remains, with the details contained in the wash cycle table.The
corresponding programme sequence, duration and consumption details are shown in the right half of the
overview. For example:
Use the« normal»       programme for dishes and utensils which have plenty of food remains stuck on
hard.
Earn savings
If only a small number of dishes have been loaded into the dishwasher,selecting a programme that
operates at the next lowest temperature will usually be sufficient.
Programme data
The stated programme data are based on standard operating conditions. The values can vary consider-
ably according to:
different amounts of dishes
temperature of mains water supply
pressure of mains water supply
ambient temperature
fluctuations in mains voltage
machine-related factors (e.g. temperature, water volume,...)
Energy and water consumption is reduced by up to  1/4 when dishes are washed in the upper basket
only.The water consumption values are related to  water hardness level 1.
Switching the dishwasher ON

Set ON-OFF button “ A ”  to ON. All the programme
indicators “J1,J2,J3,J4,J5,J6 ” light .
Press programme button “I1” ,  programme indicator

How to keep your dishwasher in shape
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture
and odors are not trapped inside.
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.
No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning
products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little
while vinegar, or cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in a vertical position. If absolutely necessary, it can be
positioned on its back.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.
Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.
When You Go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and
then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance
slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.

Care and maintenance
Dishwasher salt
Check the LOW SALT indicator “ G” .Top up with salt, if
required. Regular inspection and maintenance of your appliance helps to prevent problems from occurring.This
saves time and aggravation.You should therefore carefully  inspect the inside of your dishwasher from
time to time.
Overall condition of appliance
Check that no grease or scale has accumulated on the inside of the dishwasher.
If you discover any deposits:
Clean the interior of the dishwasher thorughly with a detergent solution.
Rinse-aid
Check the LOW  RINSE AID indicator “ H ”, on the front
panel. Top up with rinse-aid,if required.
Filters
The filters “ 8”,“ 9” prevent larger particles of food in the
water from reaching the pump.These particles may occa-
sionally block the filters.
When the appliance has  finished washing, check the fil-
ters for particles of food and, if required, clean.
After undoing the coarse micro-filter “ 8 ” , the filter unit
“ 10” can be removed. Remove any particles of food and
rinse the filters under running water.
Insert the filter unit “ 9 ” and tighten the coarse micro-
filter.8
