PRODUCT OVERVIEW

IMPORTANT
To get the best performance from your dishwasher, read all the instructions carefully before using it for the first time. NOTE
Images are for reference only and may differ depending on the model purchased. Please evaluate them on a generic level.

USING THE DISHWASHER

Before using the dishwasher:

1. Setting the water softener
2. Salt insertion
3. Loading the rack
4. Filling the dispenser

Salt insertion
NOTE
If your model doesn’t have water softeners, you can skip this section. Always use dishwasher salt.
IMPORTANT
Use only dishwasher-specific salt!
Any other type of salt not specifically designed for use in dishwashers, particularly kitchen salt, will damage the water softener. In case of damage caused by the use of unsuitable salt, the manufacturer does not provide any warranty and is not liable for any damage caused.
Fill the salt container first and perform a short washing cycle. This will prevent any grain of salt or salt water, which may have been spilled, from remaining at the bottom of the machine for an extended period of time causing corrosion.
The salt container is located under the lower basket and must be filled as explained below:

1. Remove the lower basket and unscrew the tank cap.
2. Insert the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and pour about 1.5 kg of dishwasher salt.
3. Fill the salt container up to the maximum limit with water, it is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
4. After filling the container, tighten the cap firmly.
5. The salt light will go out after the salt container is filled.
6. Immediately after filling the salt container, a washing program should be started (we recommend using a short cycle). Otherwise, the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salt residues. In this case, the damage caused is not covered by the warranty.

NOTE

• The salt container must only be filled when the salt control light ( ) is lit on the control panel. Depending on how the salt dissolves, the light may still be on even if the salt container is full. If there is no salt control light on the control panel (for some models), you can estimate when to fill the salt in the softener based on the cycles the dishwasher has made.
• If some salt escapes from the container, perform soaking or a quick program to remove it.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

External cleaning
Door and door seal
Clean the door seals regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove food deposits.
When loading the dishwasher, food and drink residues can drip on the outside of the dishwasher door and should be removed before closing the door.
Control panel
If cleaning is necessary, use only a soft, damp cloth to clean the control panel.
IMPORTANT
To prevent water from penetrating the door lock and electrical control panel, do not use spray cleaners of any kind.
Never use abrasive cleaners or abrasive pads on external surfaces because they can scratch; even some paper towels can scratch or leave marks on the surface.
Internal cleaning
Filtering system
The filter system at the base of the sink retains coarse debris from the washing cycle. Coarse debris collected may cause filter clogging. Check the condition of the filters regularly and clean them under running water if necessary.
Follow the steps below to clean the filters.
NOTE
The images are for reference only, depending on the model purchased the filtering system and the lower wash arm may be different. The images are intended only as an example.

1. Hold filter 1 and turn it counterclockwise to unlock. Lift
the filter up and pull it out of the dishwasher.| 2. Filter 3 can be removed from the bottom of the filter assembly. Filter 1 can be removed from filter 2 gently
by pressing and turning it counterclockwise and
pulling it upwards

3. Larger food residues can be cleaned by rinsing the filter under running water. For more thorough cleaning, use a soft brush suitable for cleaning.| 4. Refit the filters on the back in disassembly order, replace and insert the filter and turn clockwise as shown by the arrow.

IMPORTANT
Don’t overtighten the filters. Put the filters back in sequence safely, otherwise coarse debris could enter the system and cause a blockage.
NEVER use the dishwasher without filters. Improper filter replacement can reduce the performance level of the appliance and create damage to dishes and tools that will not be covered under warranty.
Washing arms
The washing arms must be cleaned regularly to prevent hard water chemicals from clogging the washing arm jets and bearings. To clean the spray arms, follow the instructions below:

1. To remove the upper washing arm, hold the nut in the centre and turn the washing arm counter- lockwise to remove it.| 2. To remove the lower washing arm, pull it upwards.

3. Wash your arms with soap and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Dry them after rinsing them thoroughly.
Folding the shelves
To make room for taller objects in the dishwasher basket, lift the grill upwards. It will then be possible to place the tall glasses against it. You can even remove it when you don’t need to use it. Folding the racks
Racks are used to hold trays and dishes. They can be lowered to create more space for large objects.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Water supply and drainage
CONNECTION TO THE DRINKING WATER SYSTEM
NOTE
If the appliance is replaced, a new water filling hose must be used.
Connect the appliance to a drinking water system using the components provided.
Make sure that the drinking water connection is not bent, crushed or wrapped around itself.
Connect the cold water supply hose to a 3/4 (inch) threaded connector and make sure it is tightened correctly.
If the water pipes are new or have not been used for a long period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear. This precaution is necessary to avoid the risk of water blocking or damaging the appliance.
Information on the safety supply pipe
The safety water supply pipe consists of double walls. The hose system guarantees a preventive intervention by blocking the water flow in case of breakage and when the air space between the water supply hose itself and the external corrugated hose is full of water.
IMPORTANT
A hose attached to a sink can burst if installed on the same water line as the dishwasher.
How to connect the safety water supply pipe

1. Pull the safety supply pipes completely out of the storage compartment located behind the dishwasher.
2. Tighten the screws of the safety supply pipe to the tap with the 3/4-inch thread.
3. Run the water completely before starting the dishwasher.

How to disconnect the safety water supply pipe

1. Turn off the water.
2. Unscrew the safety supply pipe from the tap.

DRAINING CONNECTION
Connect the appliance to a water draining connection so that dirty water from the washing cycle can drain off.
Connect the draining pipe with a diameter of 4 cm to the siphon drain sleeve.
Make sure that the draining pipe is not bent, crushed or wrapped around itself.
Make sure that there is no plug in the drain that prevents water from draining.
The height of the draining pipe must be less than 1000 mm. The end of the pipe must not be immersed in water to prevent backflow.
Fasten the draining pipe firmly in either position A or B How to drain excess water from pipes
If the sink is higher than 1000 mm from the floor, excess water in the pipes cannot be discharged directly into the sink. You will need to drain excess water from the pipes into a suitable bowl or container that is held outside and lower than the sink.
Water outlet
Connect the water draining pipe. The draining pipe must be installed correctly to prevent water leaks. Make sure that the water draining pipe is not bent or crushed.
Extension tube
If a draining pipe extension is required, be sure to use a similar draining pipe.
It must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher may be reduced.
Siphon connection
The connection to the siphon trap must be 100 cm below the bottom of the dish. The water draining pipe must be secured.
CORRECT POSITIONING OF THE DISHWASHER
Place the appliance in the desired position. The rear should rest on the wall, and on the sides, along adjacent furniture or walls. The dishwasher is equipped with a water supply and the drainpipes can be positioned on the right or left side to facilitate correct installation.
Levelling the appliance
Once the appliance has been positioned for levelling, the height of the dishwasher can be changed by adjusting the level of screwing in the feet. NOTE
Apply only on free-standing dishwasher.
Free-standing machine installation
The height of the dishwasher, 845 mm, has been designed to allow the machine to be installed between existing furniture in modern and modular kitchens. The feet can be adjusted so that the correct height is reached.
The laminate top of the machine does not require special attention as it is heat resistant, scratch-proof and stain-resistant. Under the existing countertop
(in case of installation under a countertop) In most modern modular kitchens there is only a single countertop under which cabinets and electrical appliances are mounted. In this case, remove the dishwasher countertop by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the dishwasher top (a). Built- in machine installation
Step 1. Selecting the best installation position for the dishwasher
The installation position of the dishwasher must be close to the existing inlet and outlet pipes and the power cord.

Contact your local water company for information on the hardness of the water supplied. See also the section “Salt loading” in the first part.
NOTE
If your model doesn’t have water softeners, you can skip this section.
Water hardness varies from one place to another. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on dishes and tools.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt container specifically designed to remove limescale and minerals from the water.
PREPARATION AND LOADING OF DISHES
It is important to only wash objects in the dishwasher when washing in the dishwasher is expressly indicated. In the case of special tools, use a program in which the temperature is lower.
To avoid burns and damage to the dishes, do not remove the glass and cutlery from the dishwasher immediately after the washing program has finished.
Below is a list of products that cannot be washed in the dishwasher,

• Cutlery with wooden, porcelain or mother-of-pearl handles
• Plastic objects that are not heat-resistant
• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant
• Dented cutlery or dishes
• Objects made of pewter or cooper
• Crystal
• Steel objects subject to rust
• Wooden dishes
• Objects made with synthetic fibres

Please, also consider that,

• some types of glasses can become dull after a large number of washes
• silver and aluminium parts tend to discolour during washing
• enamelled patterns may fade if washed frequently

Recommendations for loading the dishwasher
It is important to scrape off large amounts of food residues. Soften the residues of encrusted food in the pans.
For best dishwasher performance, follow these loading guidelines.
(The features and appearance of baskets and cutlery may differ from your model.)
Put the objects in the dishwasher as follows:

• Objects such as cups, glasses, pots / pans, etc. facing downwards.
• Curved objects, or those with recesses, must be diagonally loaded so that water can flow regularly.
• All tools must be stacked securely and must not tip over.
• All tools must be positioned so that the washing arms can rotate freely during washing.
• Loading empty objects such as cups, glasses, pans etc. with the opening side down so that water doesn’t accumulate inside the container.
• Dishes and cutlery must not lie inside each other or cover each other.
• To avoid damage, the glasses must not touch each other.
• The upper basket is designed to hold lighter and more delicate tableware such as glasses, coffee and teacups.
• Long blade knives positioned vertically represent a potential danger!
• Place long and/or pointed objects such as cutlery horizontally in the upper basket.
• Please do not overload the dishwasher. This is important for good washing results and reasonable energy consumption.

NOTE

• Very small objects should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket.
• To prevent water from dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend emptying the lower basket first, followed by the upper basket.
• To avoid damage, wait at least 15 minutes after the end of the washing program before taking glassware and cutlery out of the dishwasher.

Loading the upper basket
The upper basket is designed to hold delicate and lighter tableware such as glasses, coffee and teacups and saucers, as well as dishes, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty). Place the dishes and pans so that they are not touched by the washing arm.

Loading the lower basket
We recommend placing large objects that are difficult to clean at the bottom of the basket:
position pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure below. It is preferable to place dishes and covers on the side of the racks to avoid blocking the rotation of the upper washing arm.
The maximum recommended diameter for dishes in front of the detergent dispenser is 19 cm, so as not to hinder the opening of the dispenser.

Loading the cutlery basket
Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery holder separately from each other in the appropriate positions, ensuring that they do not overlap on top of each other to avoid unsatisfactory results.
Make sure the cutlery doesn’t go beyond the basket.
Always load sharp objects with the tip pointing downwards.
DETERGENT AND RINSE AID

Use only a specific detergent for dishwashers. Keep the detergent in a cool, dry place.
Only fill the dispenser when the dishwasher has already been loaded and is ready for operation.
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep the detergent out of the reach of children.
At the end of washing, rinse aid is released during the rinse function to prevent the water from forming droplets that can stain and leave streaks on the dishes. The rinse aid also improves the drying function. Please note that the dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aid.
NOTE
Use only brand-name rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substance (e.g. dishwasher detergent, liquid detergent).
This would damage the appliance.
The rinse aid dispenser should be refilled according to the frequency of dish washing and the adjustment of the dispenser according to use. When the rinse is about to run out, the light will come on Do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser.
Filling the rinse aid tank Rinse aid adjustment
To obtain a better drying performance using little rinse aid, it is possible to adjust the quantity used for each washing cycle. Please proceed as follows.

1. Open the door and switch the appliance on.

2. Within 60 seconds of Step 1, press the Program button for more than 5 seconds, then press the Delay button to access the set model, the rinse aid indication flashes with a frequency of 1Hz.

3.  Press the Program button to select the correct series according to your usage habits, the series will change in the following sequence: D1 > D2 > D3 > D4 > D5 > D1.
   The greater the number, the bigger will be the quantity of rinse aid used by the dishwasher.

4.  To exit the configuration mode, press the power button or do not take any action for 5 seconds.

FillIing the detergent tank Depending on the model purchased, please choose between the following opening modes:

1. Open the cap by sliding the release latch.
2. Open the cap by pressing the release latch.

Add the detergent in the largest part of the container (A) for washing.
