SAFETY INFORMATION
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding provides a path of least
resistance for electric current to reduce the risk of electric shock. The
appliance must be connected to a cord having an equipmentgrounding conductor
and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that
is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and
ordinances.
DANGER – Improper connection of the equipment grounding conductor can result
in a risk of electric shock. The conductor with insulation having an outer
surface that is green with or without yellow stripes is the equipment
grounding conductor. If repair or replacement of the cord or plug is
necessary, do not connect the equipmentgrounding conductor to a live terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service person if the grounding
instructions are not completely understood, or if in doubt as to whether the
appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug connected to the
appliance if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a
qualified electrician. FOR GROUNDED, CORD-CONNECTED APPLIANCE RATED LESS THAN
15A AND INTENDED FOR USE ON A NOMINAL 120V SUPPLY CIRCUIT The appliance is for
use on a nominal 120V circuit and should be connected to a grounding outlet
that looks like the one illustrated below. The use of a temporary adaptor is
not recommended.
Page 6
SET UP & USE
POWER SUPPLY CORD
1. Avoid the use of an extension cord because of potential safety hazards
under certain conditions. Have a qualified electrician or serviceman to
install an outlet near the appliance.
2. If it is absolutely necessary to use an extension cord, extreme care must
be exercised. a) Use only a grounding type 3-wire extension cord that has a
3-blade grounding plug and a 3-slot receptacle that will accept the plug on
the appliance. b) The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must
equal to or greater than the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer
cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or
table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over
unintentionally.
NOTE: Neither BLACK+DECKER nor the dealer can accept any liability for damage
to the product or personal injury resulting from failure to observe the
electrical connection procedures.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard – Disconnect electrical power before
installing dishwasher. Failure to do so can result in death or electrical
shock.
CAUTION: The installation of the pipes and electrical equipment should be done
by professionals.
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. 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.
WARNING: DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, CUT OR REMOVE THE GROUND CONNECTION FROM THE

Page 10
SET UP & USE
IMPORTANT! 1. Once you open the water supply line, (even if it is closed
immediately thereafter),
the inlet hose will be pressurized. 2. To relieve water pressure from inside
the inlet hose, (make sure the water line
(faucet) is closed): press and hold the red pressure relief button on the
quick connect until the flow of water stops.
WARNING: FAILURE TO RELIEVE WATER PRESSURE, BEFORE DISCONNECTING THE QUICK-
CONNECT FROM THE FAUCET, WILL RESULT IN BACK-PRESSURE OVER-SPRAY. THE
TEMPERATURE OF INCOMING WATER CAN BE VERY HOT, AND BACK-PRESSURE OVER-SPRAY
COULD CAUSE SEVERE BURNS AND/OR SCALDING.
DANGER: DO NOT LET CHILDREN DISCONNECT THE DISHWASHER; CLOSE SUPERVISION OF
CHILDREN IS ALWAYS IMPORTANT AROUND APPLIANCES.
NOTE: Hard water conditions will adversely affect the washing performance of
your dishwasher. Hard water conditions will also contribute to lime’ (white film substance) deposits and/or
scaling’ on the stainless steel surface of
the dishwasher tub and heater element, located in the sump underneath the
removable filter screen. To assist in minimizing these conditions, it is
recommended to periodically operate/rinse the inside of the dishwasher (empty)
using 1 cup of white vinegar at least once a week.
DISCONNECTING YOUR DISHWASHER
1. Shut off the water supply at the faucet. 2. Disconnect the power supply
cord.

AT THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE
When the working cycle has finished, the buzzer of dishwasher will sound 8 seconds, then stop. Turn off the appliance using the ON/OFF button, shut off the water supply and open the door of the dishwasher. Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better. Since the appliance is standing by, it will power off automatically after 30 minutes without any operation.
Switch Off the Dishwasher All the phase lights are off, only in this case, the
program has ended. 1. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF button.
2. Turn off the water tap! 3. Allow time for your dishes to dry before opening
the door.
Condensing Drying Method Your dishwasher uses a non-vented drying method.
After the final rinse the water is pumped out and the unit shuts off. The
remaining water on the hot dishes will eventually evaporate, condense and run
off into the bottom of the unit. To ensure that your dishes dry well, it is
highly recommended that a rinse aid be used. Be advised that items such as
cups and glasses, which have a concave bottom, may retain droplets of water.
Open the door carefully Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The dishes should
therefore be allowed to cool down around 15 minutes before removing from the
appliance. Open the dishwasher’s door, leave it ajar and wait a few minutes
before removing the dishes. In this way they will be cooler and the drying
will be improved.
Unloading the dishwasher It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.
WARNING: It is dangerous to open the door when washing, because the hot
water may scald you.

CLEANING & CARE
FILTERING SYSTEM
The filter prevents larger remnants of food or other objects from getting
inside the pump. The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat (Main
filter) and a micro filter (fine filter). Coarse Filter – Larger items, such
as pieces of bone or glass, that could block the drain are trapped in the
coarse filter. To remove the items caught by the filter, gently squeeze the
tap on the top of this filter and lift out. Main Filter – Food and soil
particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the spray
arm and washed down to drain. Fine Filter – This filter holds soil and food
residue in the sump area and prevents it from being deposited on the dishes
during wash cycle. Note: Images are for illustration purposes only and may
differ slightly depending on
model purchased.
FILTER ASSEMBLY
The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water. For best
performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned regularly. It is
recommended to remove the larger food particles trapping in the filter after
each wash cycle by rinsing the filter and cup under running water. Lift out
the filter assembly to remove it.
Page 22
CLEANING & CARE
WARNING: Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. The dishwasher
must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may
reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.
Rotate the filter assembly counter clockwise to unlock it and lift out.
Remove the fine filter from the bottom of the filter assembly. Detach the
coarse filter from the main filter by gently squeezing the tabs at the top and
lifting it off.
Remove any food particles and clean filters by rinsing under running water. A
soft brush can be used if needed. Replace the filter assembly in reverse order
as the removal. Re-insert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning
in its seat, rotating clockwise until it locks into the closed position as
shown. Check the filters for clogs and debris after each use of the
dishwasher.
WARNING: Handle filters carefully when cleaning. If the filters become damaged
or dented it could effect the performance of the dishwasher.
NOTE: The entire filter assembly should be cleaned once a week. NOTE: Images
are for illustration purposes only and may differ slightly depending on
model purchased.

CLEANING & CARE
CARING FOR THE DISHWASHER
The control panel can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth and dry
thoroughly. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any
part of the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE DOOR
To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp
cloth. To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical
components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.
WARNING: Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel as it may damage
the door lock and electrical components. Abrasive agent or some paper towel
should not be used because of the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the
stainless steel surface.
PROTECT AGAINST FREEZING
Please take frost protection measures on dishwasher in winter. Each time after
washing cycles, please operate as follows: 1. Cut off electrical power to the
dishwasher. 2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe
from the water valve. 3. Drain water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use
a pan to catch the water) 4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water
valve. 5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to use
up water in
sump. NOTE: If your dishwasher cannot work because of the ice, please contact
professional
service persons. NOTE: If your dishwasher is not operating because of ice or
frost accumulation please
call for service.

CLEANING & CARE
CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS
The spray arms can be easily removed for periodic cleaning of the nozzles, to
prevent possible clogging. Wash them under running water and carefully replace
them in their seats, checking that their rotary movement is in no way impeded.
Grasp the middle of the spray arm, pull it upwards to remove it. Wash the arms
under a jet of running water and return them carefully to their seat. After
reassembly, check that the spray arms have been installed correctly and turn
freely.
MAINTAINING THE DISHWASHER
· 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.
· Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the
socket.
· 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.
· 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 odors from forming within 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.
· 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.
