9EN Cleaning and Special Maintenance Troubleshooting It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does not function properly. Before calling for assistance, let us see what can be done first: have you forgot 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 put the right amount of detergent into the dispenser? Is the wash cycle suitable for the dishes you have placed inside the appliance? Are the filter and microfilter clean? Can the sprayer arms turn freely? 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. Your dishwasher is equipped with a safety system which is able to detect any operating anomalies. These anomalies are reported by one or two wash cycle indicator lights G flashing rapidly.Take a note of which lights are flashing, turn the appliance off and call for technical assistance. Tap off alarm If you have forgotten to turn the water tap on, your appliance will remind you of this with the rapid flashing of the indicator lights 2 and 3 (wash and rinses). Turn the appliance off at the ON-OFF button, turn on the water tap and wait approximately 20 seconds before turning the appliance back on; repeat the programming operations and the selected wash cycle will start up again. Clogged filter alarm If the appliance is blocked and indicator lights 1 (pre-wash) and 3 (rinses) flash rapidly, this means the filter is clogged by large particles of food residue. Turn the appliance off, clean the filter thoroughly and reposition it in its seat as illustrated on this page. Then turn it back on. Repeat the programming operations and the wash cycle will start up again. Water load solenoid valve malfunction alarm. If indicator light 2 (wash) flashes rapidly, TURN the dishwasher OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN after one minute. If the alarm persists, first turn off the water tap to avoid any flooding and then cut off the electricity supply and call for technical assistance. If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not function and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorised service 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. The filter assembly If you want consistent good results from your dishwasher, you need to clean the filter assembly. The food particles are removed from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle, filtered perfectly. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped inside the cup “C” and the semi-circular filter A after each wash; pull the cup handle upwards to remove them. Just rinse them under running water. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned thoroughly once a month: cup C + semi-circular filter A + cylindrical filter B. Rotate filter “B” anticlockwise to remove it. For cleaning, use a non metallic brush. Reassemble the filter parts (as shown in the figure) and reinsert the whole assembly into the dishwasher. Position it into its housing and press downwards. The dishwasher is not to be used without filters. Improper replacement of the filters may reduce the efficiency of the wash and even damage your dishwasher . Cleaning the Sprayer Arms It may happen that food particle become encrusted on the sprayer arms and block the holes (see Close up view (interior), letters F-I). Check the sprayer arms periodically and clean them when needed. 1 2 AB C
10EN Installation A 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. Levelling the Appliance Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them in or out) to adjust the height of 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 perfor- mance. This dishwasher model can be built under a single worktop (please read the relevant instruction sheet). Anti-flooding protection Your dishwasher is provided with a special system which blocks the water supply in the event of leaks inside the appliance. Cold Water Connection This electric household appliance should be connected to the water mains using the cold water supply hose provided with the appliance only. Do not use a different hose. In the event of replacements, use original spare parts only. Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connector, and making 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 houses hot water line (centralised 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.Drain Hose Connection Fit the drain pipe into a drain line with a minimum diameter of 4 cm or place it over the sink. Avoid restricting or bending it. Use the special plastic elbow provided (see fi- gure) to position it in the best possible way. The part of the pipe marked with the letter A should be between 40 and 100 cm above the ground. The pipe should 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 current 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 sized 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 adpators or the like as they could cause overheating and burns. Should the electricity supply cable be damaged, we recommend that you only contact authorised Technical Service Centres for the replacement. Caution: the dishwasher plug must be accessible so that maintenance can be done safely.
11EN Electrical Connection Electrical Connection If your appliance is supplied with a 13 amp. fused plug it can be plugged into a 13 amp socket for immediate use. Before using the appliance please read the instruction below. WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED. THE FOLLOWING OPERATIONS SHOULD BE CARRIED OUT BY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN. Replacing the fuse: When replacing a faulty fuse, a 13 amp ASTA approved fuse to BS 1362 should always be used, and the fuse cover re-fitted. If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement is obtained. Replacemente fuse covers: If a replacement fuse cover is fitted, it must be of the correct colours as indicated by the coloured marking or the colour that is embossed in words on the base of the plug. Replacements can be obtained directly from your nearest Service Depot. Removing the plug: Ifyour appliance has a non-rewireable moulded plug and you should wish to remove it to re-route the mains cable through partitions, units etc., please esure that either: - the plug is replaced by a fused 13 amp re-wireable plug bearing the BSI mark of approval - or: - the mains cable is wired directly into a 13 amp cable outlet, controlled by a switch, (in compliance with BS 5733) which is accessible without moving the appliance. Disposing of the plug: Ensure that before disposing of the plug itself, you make the pins unusable so that it cannot be accidentally inserted into a socket. Instruction for connecting cable to an altenative plug: Important: the wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Green & Yellow - Earth Blue - Neutral Brown - Live CAUTION: The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appliance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintenance can be done safely.As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminal in your plug, proceed as follows: connect Green & Yellow wire to terminal market “E” or coloured Green or Green & Yellow. Connect Brown wire to terminal marked “L” or coloured Red. Connect Blue wire to terminal marked “N” or coloured Black. If a 13 amp plug (BS 1363) is used it must be fitted with a 13 amp fuse. A15 amp plug must be protected by a 15 amp fuse, either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board. If you are in any doubt about the electrical supply to your machine, consult a qualified electrician before use. How to connect an alternative plug: The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: BLUE“NEUTRAL” (“N”) BROWN“LIVE” (“L”) GREEN AND YELLOW“EARTH” (“E”) Disposing of the appliance: When disposing of the appliance please remove the plug by cutting the mains cable as close as possible to the plug body and dispose of it as described above GREEN & YELLOW BROWN BLUE13 amp fuse CROSS-BAR CORD GRIP
