Installation and hook-up

Remove the polystyrene basket retainers.
Position the appliance in the desired place of installation. The back or sides of the dishwasher may be placed up against walls or other furniture units. If the dishwasher is installed near a heat source, fit the special insulating panel to prevent overheating and malfunction of the appliance. To ensure stability, install integrated or built-under dishwashers only under continuous worktops, and screw them to the adjacent units. To facilitate the installation procedure, the intake and drain hoses can be positioned in
any direction; make sure that the hoses are not kinked, crushed or pulled too tightly. Make sure to tighten the locking ring-nut once the pipes have been placed in the direction required. A hole at least 8 cm in diameter is required to allow the power supply cable and pipes to pass. Before putting the dishwasher into its definitive position, turn on the water tap and check that there are no leaks from the tap connection, the dishwasher connection or the hose.
Level the appliance on the floor using the appropriate Allen key to regulate the adjustable feet. This operation is essential for ensuring correct operation of the dishwasher.
Some models are equipped with only one adjustable foot at the rear, which can be adjusted by turning the screw on the lower front part of the appliance.

Building-in a dishwasher underneath a hob is absolutely forbidden.
Moreover, dishwashers may not be installed directly touching appliances which are not conventional built-in kitchen appliances (e.g. fireplaces, stoves, etc.).
When installing the dishwasher in a compartment next to one or more other appliances, it is essential to comply with all the recommendations provided by the appliance’s manufacturer (minimum distances, installation procedures, etc.).
For free-standing models only:
– Installing a hob on top of a free-standing dishwasher is absolutely forbidden.
– To build in the dishwasher, the special kit must be purchased from authorised dealers or the After-Sales Service.
– The tops of free-standing dishwashers can be removed to allow them to be installed underneath a worktop. This procedure must be carried out by authorised staff.
2.1 Water supply connection
Preventing the risk of clogging or damage: if the water pipe is new or has not been used for a long time, before connecting to the water supply check that the water is clear and free of impurities, to prevent damage to the appliance. The dishwasher must always be connected to the water system with new hoses; old or used hoses must never be reused.
CONNECTING TO THE WATER SUPPLY
Connect the intake hose to a cold water supply with ¾” gas thread, inserting the filter A supplied with the dishwasher. Take care to screw the hose firmly into place with your hands and then complete by tightening about ¼ of a turn with pliers.
In dishwashers equipped with the ACQUASTOP device, the filters is already fitted inside the threaded ring.
smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - cold water
The dishwasher can also be connected to a hot water supply not exceeding 60°C. Supplying the appliance with hot water cuts down the washing time by approximately 20 minutes, but slightly reduces its effectiveness. Make the connection to the domestic hot water supply using the same procedure described for connecting to the cold water supply.

DRAIN CONNECTION

smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - DRAINInsert the dishwasher’s drain hose into a drain pipe having a diameter of at least 4 cm, or alternatively, place it inside the kitchen sink using the plastic support provided, taking care not to crush or excessively bend the hose. It is important to prevent the hose from coming loose and falling. For this purpose, the plastic support is equipped with a hole for tying it to the wall or water tap.

The free end should be positioned at a height of between 30 and 100 cm, and should never be submerged in water. If a horizontal drain extension hose is used (for a maximum of 3 m) the drain hose can be placed at a maximum height of 85 cm from the ground.
Class of protection against moisture: IPX0
2.2 Electrical connection and precautions

CHECK THAT THE VOLTAGE AND THE FREQUENCY OF THE MAINS MATCH THE RATINGS ON THE NAME PLATE OF THE APPLIANCE  POSITIONED ON THE INNER EDGE OF THE DOOR.
THE PLUG ON THE SUPPLY CORD AND THE CORRESPONDING SOCKET OUTLET MUST BE OF THE SAME TYPE AND MEET THE REGULATIONS IN
FORCE.  THE PLUG MUST BE ACCESSIBLE AFTER INSTALLATION.  NEVER DISCONNECT THE PLUG BY PULLING ON THE POWER SUPPLY LEAD.
smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - CHANGING AFTER CHANGING THE SUPPLY CORD, MAKE SURE THAT THE BRACKET WHICH SECURES THE CORD IS FIXED SECURELY IN PLACE. DO NOT USE ADAPTORS OR SHUNT CONNECTIONS IN ORDER TO AVOID THE POSSIBILITY OF OVERHEATING OR BURNING.

In the event of damage to the supply cord, have it replaced by the manufacturer or an Authorized Technical Service Centre in order to avoid any risk.
Some components are live even with the ON/OFF button in the OFF position. Before maintenance work on the appliance, remove the plug or turn off the
power supply at the wall switch.

(1) The cycle duration and power consumption may vary according to the water and  room temperatures, and the type and amount of dishes.
The washing cycle will not take place if the dishwasher door is left open or not properly closed.

3.2 Washing programs
Before starting a washing program make sure that:

  •  The water supply tap is open.
  • The softener container contains regenerating salt.
  • The correct amount of detergent has been added to the dispenser.
  • The baskets have been correctly loaded.
  • The spray arms are able to rotate freely and without obstruction.
  • The dishwasher door is securely closed.

Warning:
during the initial phase of the washing program, the operation of sprayers is not perceived because they start rotating about 5 minutes after the start. This is the normal operation of the washing cycle. smeg DWAFI6315T3
Dishwashers - washingQUICK TIME OPTION
Select this option together with any washing program (except the soak program) to SHORTEN the cycle. To activate this option, press button (light comes on) after selecting the program required. The option is automatically deactivated at the end of the program.
OPTION SELECTION
Options are selected by pressing the relative button by the symbol of the option required; the light comes on to confirm that the option has been activated.

  • It is not possible to select any options when the soak program is being used.
  • All options except “Flexi Tabs” are disabled at the end of the wash cycle. To disable the “Flexi Tabs” option, press the relative button (the light goes out).
  • All options, including “Flexi Tabs” are disabled when a program is CANCELLED after it has begun.

ENERSAVE
This option allows the further reduction of energy consumption, thanks to the assisted drying when the door opens at the end of the cycle. At the end of the wash, a device automatically releases the door, which slowly opens a few centimeters. This allows the best drying possible, even at low rinse temperature, permitting an important energy saving. When the door is completely open, a brief sound signal indicates that the wash cycle has ended.
Enersave is automatically activated in all programs that include a final drying phase (see program table). It is possible to disable it before starting the program.
If this function is active, never prevent the door from opening by any means, clear the space necessary to allow the opening of the door. Do not force the closure of the door before the end of cycle signal, because this would damage the mechanism.
1/2 LOAD FLEXI ZONE
Ideal if just a few dishes need to be washed, allowing energy savings. The dishes should be placed in both baskets and less detergent should be placed in the detergent dispenser compared to the amount used for a full load.
DELAY
Allows you to program the dishwasher cycle to start during the required time period (e.g. night). Press the DELAY button to activate the option. A delay of 1 hour is shown on the display. Pressing the button repeatedly will allow you to select the required delay of up to 9, 12 or 24 hours depending on the model. To cancel the setting, press the button several times until no numbers appear on the display. The option cannot be selected once the cycle is running. After the door has been closed, the dishwasher will carry
out a pre-wash cycle, after which the set “cycle delay” option will be activated.
“Flexi Tabs”
Ideal for multi-function detergents, this option allows washing to be optimised, with full benefits from the combined-action tablets. When this option is activated, any salt and rinse aid in the relative containers will not be used.
With short programs, because there is less time for them to dissolve, tablets may fail to wash effectively and undissolved residues may be left. Powder detergents are more suitable for these programs.
N.B.:
When the salt and rinse aid containers are empty, the relative lights will remain on even if the “Flexi Tabs” option is selected.
IMPORTANT:
when no longer required, the option must be deactivated by pressing the relative buttons (the light goes out).
If the water hardness has been set on a value above H3, and the “Flexi Tabs” option is activated, the relative light flashes, warning of a setting error. Multi-function products are not suitable for use with very “hard” water; this does not prevent the use of the option, but the washing results might not be of the best.

CANCELLING THE CURRENT PROGRAM

  • To cancel the currently selected program open the door and hold down the PROGRAM SELECTION (3) button for a few seconds until the indicator lights for programs 4 and 5 illuminate simultaneously (marked “end”).

  • Close the door.

  • After approximately 1 minute the dishwasher will advance to the end of cycle.

TO SAVE ON ENERGY! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT

  • Always use the dishwasher with a full load.
  • Do not wash the dishes in running water.
  • Use the washing program that is most appropriate for each type of load.
  • Do not carry out any preliminary rinsing.
  • If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply up to 60°C.

TO CUT DOWN ON DETERGENT CONSUMPTION! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save on electricity, observe the following:

  • separate the more delicate items from dishes that are more resistant to aggressive detergents and high temperatures;
  • do not pour the detergent directly on the dishes.

If the door has to be opened while washing is in progress, the program will be interrupted. The relative light will keep flashing and a beeper will signal that the cycle has not been completed. You must wait about 1 minute before closing the door to restart the program. When the door is closed the program will continue from where it was interrupted. This operation should only be carried out if strictly necessary, because it might cause problems in execution of the program.

SWITCHING OFF
At the end of the program the beeper sounds briefly and the lights of programs no. 4 and 5 (marked “end”) flash.
To switch off the dishwasher, open the door and press the ON/OFF button (1).

ENERGY MANAGEMENT
After 5 minutes of waiting (washing cycle completed, stopped or set but not started) the dishwasher switches to a standby state to reduce energy consumption.
In this state, the dishwasher indicator panel (lights or display depending on model) functions more slowly (switch-on once every 5 seconds).
REMOVING THE DISHES
At the end of the washing program, wait at least 20 minutes before removing the dishes, to allow them to cool. To ensure that any drops of water left in the top basket cannot drip onto the dishes still in the bottom basket, you are advised always to empty the bottom basket first.

Operating instructions

Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows:

  • Adjust the water softening system;
  • Add the regenerating salt;
  • Add the rinse aid and detergent.

smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - scale4.1 Using the water softening system
The amount of scale contained in the water (water hardness index) can cause whitish staining on the dry dishes, which tend to become dull over time. The dishwasher is equipped with an automatic softening system that uses a special regenerating salt to reduce the hardness of the water. smeg DWAFI6315T3
Dishwashers - softening

When using water of medium hardness, the regenerating salt container should be refilled after approximately 20 washing cycles. The salt container can hold approximately 1 Kg of salt in grains. The container is situated at the bottom of the dishwasher. After removing the lower basket, unscrew the salt container cap by turning it anticlockwise and pour in the salt using the funnel supplied with the dishwasher. Before replacing the cap, remove any salt residues from around the opening.

  •  When using the dishwasher for the first time, in addition to the salt it is also necessary to add one litre of water to the container.
  • Each time the salt container is refilled, make sure that the cap is securely closed. The mixture of water and detergent must never penetrate the salt container, as this would compromise the operation of the regeneration system. In the event of this occurring, the warranty will be invalidated.
  • Only use regenerating salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers. If using salt tablets, do not fill the container completely.
  • Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time, may damage the water softening system.
  •  When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.

Be careful not to confuse the salt and detergent packages; adding detergent to the salt container will damage the water softening system.

ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENER
The setting can be adjusted using the PROGRAM SELECTION BUTTON (3). Keep the button pressed until the WATER HARDNESS ADJUSTMENT INDICATOR LIGHT (4) flashes. The SELECTED PROGRAM INDICATOR LIGHTS (2) indicate the current setting. Each press of the button modifies the setting according to the sequence in the following table:

smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - button 1After carrying out the adjustment or displaying the current setting, if you do not touch the button for a few seconds the dishwasher will automatically exit from adjustment mode and return to the standard operating mode.

4.2 Using the rinse aid and detergent dispensers
The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are situated on the inner part of the door: the detergent dispenser is on the left, and the rinse aid dispenser is on the right. smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - situated

With the exception of the SOAK program, before every washing cycle it is necessary to add the required amount of detergent to the detergent dispenser. The rinse aid, on the other hand, should only be added as required.

ADDING THE RINSE AID
The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the formation of scale deposits and staining; it is automatically added to the water during the final rinse cycle, from the container situated on the inner side of the door.

To add rinse aid:

  • Open the dispenser by pressing and lifting the tab on the cover.
  • Fill the dispenser with rinse aid. Top up again when the rinse aid indicator light turns on.
  • Close the cover, a click indicates when it is closed.
  • Use a cloth to remove any spillage of rinse aid that might lead to the formation of excess foam.

  • The amount of rinse aid must be increased if the washed dishes appear dull or feature circular stains.
  • If, on the other hand, the dishes are sticky or have white streaks, it is necessary to reduce the rinse aid setting.

ADDING THE DETERGENT
To open the detergent dispenser cover, lightly press button P. Add the detergent or tablet and close the cover by sliding it until it stops, indicated by a click.
The dispenser will open automatically during the wash cycle.
Only add the detergent (also in tablet form) if the dispenser is dry smeg
DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - dispenser

  • When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on models).
  •  Use only detergents specially formulated for dishwashers.
  • The detergent packs must be sealed and stored in a dry place to prevent the formation of lumps which may negatively affect washing results. Once opened the detergent packs should not be kept for too long, otherwise the detergent loses its effectiveness.
  • Do not use detergents for washing dishes by hand because they may affect the operation of the dishwasher.
  • Add the correct amount of detergent. An insufficient amount of detergent will result in a partial removal of dirt from the dishes, whereas an excessive amount is wasteful and does not improve the washing results.
  • For the safeguarding of the environment, we recommend the use of phosphate- and chlorine-free detergents.

The introduction of detergent into the rinse aid dispenser, even in liquid form, will damage the dishwasher.
4.3 General warnings and recommendations
Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the following recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and their loading.
There are generally no constraints on the washing of domestic dishes, but in certain cases it is necessary to take their characteristics into account.
Before loading the dishes into the baskets it is necessary to:

  • remove coarse food remains: e.g. bones, fish-bones, etc. which may clog the filter or damage the wash pump.
  • soak any pots or pans with burnt-on food remains on the bottom to facilitate removal, then load them into the LOWER BASKET.
    There is no need to pre-wash the dishes under running water before loading them into the baskets since this only wastes water. Correct loading of the dishes helps ensure optimal washing results.

WARNING!

  •  Make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that they cannot tip over or obstruct the rotation of the spray arms during the washingcycle.
  • Do not place very small objects in the baskets as these could fall and obstruct the spray arms or the wash pump.
  • Containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots should always be loaded with the opening facing downwards and with any cavities atan angle, to allow the water to drain out.
  •  Do not stack dishes or place them in such a way that they cover one other.
  • Do not place glasses too close together because they may knockagainst each other and break, or there might be staining at the point where they touch.

MAKE SURE that the items being washed are dishwasher-safe.
Items that are not dishwasher-safe:

  • Wooden dishes, pots or pans: these may be damaged by the high washing temperatures.
  • Handcrafted items: these are rarely suitable for washing in a dishwasher. The relatively high water temperatures and the detergents used may damage them.
  • Plastic dishes: heat resistant plastic dishes must be washed in the upper basket.
  • Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass: these tend to stain.
  • Aluminium dishes: items made from anodised aluminium may lose their colour.
  • Silverware: silver items may stain.
  • Glass and crystal: in general, glass and crystal objects can be washed in the dishwasher. However, certain types of glass and crystal may become dull and lose their clearness after many washings. Therefore, for these items we recommend using the least aggressive program available.
  •  Decorated items: the decorated objects available on the market are generally able to withstand washing in the dishwasher, although the colours may fade after a great many washes. If in doubt as to the fastness of the colours, it is advisable to wash just a few items at a time for approximately one month.

4.4 Using the baskets
The dishwasher has a capacity of 15 place-settings, including serving dishes.
LOWER BASKET
The lower basket receives the full force of the lower spray arm, and should therefore be used for the “toughest” items with a heavier degree of soiling. All types and combinations of loads are permitted, provided that the dishes, pots and pans are arranged with all the soiled surfaces exposed to the water jets coming from the bottom.

Depending on the models, the basket may be equipped with some or all of the following accessories:
Plate racks, which can be laid flat when not in use (e.g. to accommodate pans, bowls, etc.). To stow the racks flat, pull them upward and turn them towards the inside of the basket.smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers -
towards

Anti-drip inserts which improve thedrying of dishes. They may be supplied fitted on the basket or in the accessories bag; in this case, to use them, simply fit them into place
as shown.

Supports for cups and long objects (ladles, spoons, etc.), in the rear; can be tipped to the vertical position when not in use.

Glass holder. Support for longstem glasses. When lifted out  of the stowed position (0) it snaps intothree different positions (1-2-3).

smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - glasses.

2-position fold-down supports (1-2). In position 1 (vertical) they can be used to take plates, while in position 2 (slanted) they provide support for long- stem glasses which will be held in place by the glass holder. Adjustment: raise point P as shown until the support turns into position 2.smeg

LOADING THE LOWER BASKET
Carefully load flat plates, soup plates, dessert and serving dishes, positioning them vertically. Pots, pans and their covers must be loaded upside down. When loading soup plates and dessert bowls, be sure to leave a gap between them.smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - pans

UPPER BASKET

The upper basket should be loaded with small or medium-sized items such as glasses, small plates and saucers, tea or coffee cups, shallow bowls and light objects. If the upper basket is used in the lowermost position, it can also be loaded with serving dishes, provided they are only lightly soiled.
LOADING THE UPPER BASKET
Load plates facing forward; cups, bowls etc. must always be facing downwards. The left side of the basket can be loaded with cups and glasses on two levels. In the centre section, plates and saucers can be loaded vertically into the supports provided.smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers -
vertically

CUTLERY BASKET

The basket is suitable for all types of cutlery, except long items that may interfere with the upper spray arm. The cutlery should be arranged in the spaces in the upper racks to allow the water to pass effectively between the items.
Forks and spoons should be positioned with the handle facing downwards, taking care not to injure yourself with the prongs of the forks.
Knives should be placed in the tray on the upper rack or in the cutlery drawer, if present (depending on the model), otherwise position them with the handles facing upwards.
Ladles, wooden spoons and kitchen knives can be placed on the upper rack, making sure that the blades of the knives do not protrude from the basket. The upper racks can be opened in order to insert, for example, small items. The cutlery basket slides across the dishwasher and can be placed in any position to allow optimal use of the space in the bottom basket. smeg DWAFI6315T3
Dishwashers - dishwasher

TOP CUTLERY BASKET (on some models only)
The basket is designed to take cutlery, placed in the spaces provided, long utensils, positioned lengthwise and small items. The “drawer” extraction system makes the basket easier to load, but it can also be taken completely off its runners by removing the retainers (as shown here). Take great care to replace the retainers to ensure that the basket does not come off the runners accidentally.smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - retainers

For small objects, mugs and cups.
They can be used either closed or open (pull the upper, sliding part). To close them, press the release device (S) and slide them downwards. The ends are designed to hold long stemmed glasses (even when closed). When not used they can be moved to a vertical position (until a click is heard).smeg
DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - expandable

Fold-down tines
These can be secured in a vertical position, resting on the bottom of the basket if unused, or placed in an intermediate position, as required. The single tine on the right is ideal for supporting long stemmed glasses.smeg
DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - intermediate

ADJUSTING THE UPPER BASKET
The height of the top basket can be adjusted to allow large dishes or pans to be placed in the bottom basket.
The sides of the basket must always be set at the same height.

  • Raise the basket by pulling on the top edge (1), to the first or second catch depending on the height required.
  • To lower the basket, first release it by pulling the release lever (2).
    Adjustment is also possible with the basket loaded, but in this case when lowering the basket it should be held steady with one hand to avoid knocking the dishes.

Cleaning and maintenance

Before carrying out any work, always unplug the appliance from the electrical supply or switch off the all-pole disconnection device.

5.1 General warnings and recommendations
Avoid the use of acidic or abrasive detergents.
Clean the outer surfaces and door-lining of the dishwasher regularly using a soft cloth moistened with water or with a normal detergent suitable for painted surfaces. Clean the door gaskets with a damp sponge. Periodically (once or twice a year) it is advisable to clean the tank and gaskets, using a soft cloth and water to remove any deposits.
CLEANING THE WATER INTAKE FILTER
The water intake filter A located at the outlet of the water supply tap needs to be cleaned periodically.
After having closed the water supply tap, unscrew the end of the water intake hose, remove the filter A and clean it delicately under running water. Reassemble filter A in its seat and carefully screw the water intake hose back into position.

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.

  •  To remove the upper spray arm, unscrew locking ring R.
  •  To remove the orbital spray arm assembly, take hold of the longer arm and pull the orbital unit upward. Wash the arms under a jet of running water and return them carefully to their seat. After reassembly, check that the spray arms turn freely. Otherwise, check that they have been installed correctly.

smeg DWAFI6315T3 Dishwashers - ORBITAL

CLEANING THE FILTER UNIT

  • It is advisable to periodically inspect the centre filter C and, if necessary, to clean it. To remove the filter, grip the tabs, turn them anticlockwise and lift upwards;
  •  push the centre filter D from the underside to remove it from the microfilter:
  • separate the two parts which make up the plastic filter by pressing the body of the filter in the zone shown by the arrows
  • remove the centre filter by lifting it upwards.

GENERAL WARNINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR CORRECT MAINTENANCE:

  • The filters should be cleaned under running water using a stiff brush.
  • When removing the filter, take care that there are no food residues on it. If any residues fall into the washing pit they might block hydrauliccomponents, or foul the spray arm nozzles.
  • It is essential to thoroughly clean the filters according to the above instructions: the dishwasher cannot function if the filters are clogged.
  • Carefully replace the filters in their seats, to avoid damaging the wash pump.

PROLONGED DISUSE:

  •  Run the soak program twice in succession.
  • Unplug the power cord from the socket.
  • Leave the door slightly open, in order to prevent the formation of unpleasant odours inside the washing tank.
  •  Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
  • Shut off the water supply tap.

BEFORE STARTING THE DISHWASHER AFTER PROLONGED DISUSE:

  • Check that there are no deposits of sludge or rust inside the waterpipe: if there are, allow the water to run from the water supply tap fora few minutes.
  • Plug the power cord back into the socket.
  • Reconnect the water intake hose and open the tap again.

TROUBLESHOOTING MINOR PROBLEMS

In some cases it is possible to remedy minor problems by referring to the following instructions:

If the program fails to start, check that:

  • the dishwasher is connected to the electrical power supply;
  • there is no power failure;
  •  the water tap is open;
  • the dishwasher door is properly closed.
  • the door won’t close > the door latch was released > use greater strength to close the door.

If water remains inside the dishwasher, check that:

  • the drain hose is not kinked;

  • the drain siphon is not obstructed;

  •  the dishwasher filters are not clogged.
    If the dishes are not being cleaned properly, check that:

  • the correct amount of detergent has been added;

  • there is regenerating salt inside the special container;

  •  the dishes are being loaded correctly;

  •  the selected program is suitable for the dish types and their degree of soiling;

  •  all the filters are clean and positioned correctly;

  •  the spray arm nozzles are not obstructed;

  •  there is no object obstructing the rotation of the spray arms.

If the dishes fail to dry or remain dull, check that:

  • there is rinse aid inside the special container;

  • the rinse aid dispenser setting is correct;

  •  the detergent used is of good quality and has not lost its effectiveness (for example, through incorrect storage, with the box left open).

  •  Non-dry synthetic dishes. Synthetic material has a lower heat storage capacity and is therefore harder to dry.
    If the dishes show signs of streaking, staining, etc., check that:

  • the rinse aid dispenser setting is not too high.
    If there are visible traces of rust inside the tank:

  • the tank is made of steel, and therefore any rust marks are due to external elements (fragments of rust from the water pipes, pots, cutlery, etc.). Special products are commercially available to remove such marks;

  • check that the amount of detergent being used is correct. Certain detergents can be more corrosive than others.

  •  check that the cap of the salt container is securely closed, and that the water softening setting is correct.

If the door does not close:

  1. – Check the position of the door lock catch (D)
  2. – If necessary, raise it by adjusting the plastic screw (V) next to the catch.
  3. – Check the condition of the lock hook; if it has not triggered (reference N), the door opens and closes normally. If it has triggered (reference S), close the door with force until it resets; open and close the door.
