prevents it from being redeposit on the dishes during wash 
cycle  The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat (Main filter) 
and a micro filter (fine filter).

Cleaning the Spray Arms 
The spray arms can be easily removed for periodic cleaning of

How to Keep Your Dishwasher in Shape 
„  After Every Wash 
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the 
appliance and leave the door slightly open so that 
moisture and odors are not trapped inside. 
„  Remove the Plug 
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always 
remove the plug from the socket. 
„  No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning 
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the 
dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning 
products. 
Only use a cloth with warm soapy water. 
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the 
interior, use a cloth dampened with water with a little 
vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for 
dishwashers. 
„  When it is not in need for a long time 
It is recommend 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 open. This will help the door 
seals to last longer and prevent odours from forming 
within the appliance. 
„  Moving the Appliance 
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the 
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 remain strapped in the seals. 
Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this 
from occurring. 
 
8. Installation Instruction 
 
 
 
Installation preparation 
 
The installation position of dishwasher should be near the existing inlet and drain hoses and 
power cord. 
One side of the cabinet sink should be chosen to facilitate the connection of drain hoses of the 
dishwasher. 
 
Warning 
Attention 
The installation of the pipes and 
electrical equipments should be done 
by professionals. Electrical Shock Hazard Disconnect 
electrical power before installing 
dishwasher. 
Failure to do so can result in death or 
electrical shock. 
 
						

							 
 
  
 16 
Positioning the Appliance 
 
Position 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. 
 
About Power Connection 
 
 WARNING! For personal safety: 
„ DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE.  
„ DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE EARTHING CONNECTION FROM THE POWER CORD. 
Electrical Requirements 
Please look at the rating label to know the rating voltage and connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power supply.  
Use the required fuse 10amp, time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate circuit serving only this 
appliance. 
Electrical Connection 
Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power being corresponds to those on the 
rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If 
the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for 
the plug, replace the socket, rather than using adaptors or the like as they could cause 
over heating and burns. 
 
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS 
 „ This appliance must be earthed. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, earthing will reduce the risk 
of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for the electric current. This appliance is equipped 
with a cord having an equipment-earthing conductor and an earthing plug. The plug must be plugged into 
an appropriate outlet that is installed and earthed in accordance with all local standards and requirements.
 
 WARNING! „ Improper connection of the equipment earthing conductor can result in the risk of an electric shock. 
„ Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly earthed. 
„ Do not modify the plug provided with the appliance. If the plug does not fit properly to the outlet, please have a qualified electrician to install a proper outlet. 
 
Water Connection 
Cold Water Connection 
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (inch) connector and make sure that it is 
fastened tightly in place. 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 hot water line 
(centralized system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60°C. In 
this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes 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. 
 
 WARNING! In order to avoid that there is more water staying in the inlet hose, please close the hydrant after 
using. (Not applicable to appliances without aqua-stop.) 
Insure proper ground 
exists before use

Connection of drain hoses 
 
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 
appliance. The free end of the hose must be at a height lower than75cm and must not be 
immersed in water to avoid the back flow of it. 
 
 
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.

How to Drain Excess Water From Hoses 
If the sink is 1000 mm higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be 
necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink. 
Water Outlet 
Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that the water drain hose is 
not kinked or squashed. 
Extension Hose 
If you need a drain hose extension, observe to use a similar drain hose. 
It must be no longer than 4 meters; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be reduced.

„  The dishwasher is level and fixed properly  
„  The inlet valve is open 
„  There is a leakage at the connections of the conducts  
„  The wires are tightly connected  
„  The power is switched on
