Preparing Your Dishwasher For First Use

  • Make sure the electricity and supply water specifications match the values indicated in the installation instructions for the machine.
  • Remove all packaging material inside the machine.
  • Set the water softener level, after filling with salt.
  • Set the rinse-aid level, after filling the rinse-aid compartment.

Salt Usage
For a good washing function, the dishwasher needs soft, i.e. less calcareous water. Otherwise, White lime residues will remain on the dishes and the interior equipment. This will negatively affect your machine’s washing, drying, and shining performance. When water flows through the softener system, the ions forming the hardness are removed from the water and the water reaches the softness required to obtain the best washing result. Depending on the level of hardness of the inflowing water, these ions that harden the water accumulate rapidly inside the softener system. Therefore, the softener system has to be refreshed so that it operates with the same performance during every wash. For this purpose, dishwasher salt is used. The dishwasher can only use special dishwasher salt to soften the water. Do not use any small-grained or powdered type of salts that are easily soluble (for example table salt). Using any other type of salt can damage your machine and will invalidate your guarantee.

  • Only add water to the salt compartment before first use.
  • Use softener salt specifically produced for use in dishwashers.
  • When you start your dishwasher, the salt compartment is filled with water, therefore put the softener salt in before starting your machine (see below for filling instructions).
  • If the softener salt has overflowed and you do not start the machine immediately, run a short washing program to protect your machine against corrosion.

Fill The Salt
To add softener salt,

  1. Open the salt compartment cap by turning it counterclockwise.
  2. Remove the salt cap.
  3. Before first use, fill the compartment with 1 kg salt. If available, using a funnel will make filling easier.
  4. Fill the container with water until it is almost overflowing. Replace the cap making sure it is secure and tight.

After every 20-30 Cycles, or when the re-fill light indicates, add salt into your machine until it fills up the container (approx. 1Kg).

Test Strip

6| 32-50| 56- 90| 40 -63| P1- 6h- 9h LED’s are on

Water Softener System
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which reduces the hardness of the mains water supply. To find out the hardness level of your tap water, contact your water company or use the test strip supplied.

Setting
To change the salt level, follow the below steps:

  • Open the door of the machine.
  • Turn on the machine, and press the Programme button as soon as the machine is turned on.
  • Hold down the Programme button until all LEDs blink once.
  • The machine will display the last setting.
  • Set the level by pressing the Programme button.
  • Switch off the machine to save the setting.

Detergent Usage

  • Only use detergents specifically designed for domestic dishwashers. Keep your detergents in cool, dry places out of reach of children. Add the proper detergent for the selected program to ensure the best performance. The amount of detergent needed depends on the cycle, load size, and soil level of the dishes.
  • Do not fill detergent into the detergent compartment more than required; otherwise, you can see whitish streaks or bluish layers on glass and dishes which may cause glass corrosion. Continued use of too much detergent may cause machine damage. Using little detergent can result in poor cleaning and you can see whitish streaks in hard water areas.
    • See the detergent manufacturer’s instructions for further information.

Filling The Detergent

  • Push the latch which will cause the dispenser lid to slide upwards. Once fully open pour in the required amount of detergent.
  • Close the lid by sliding it back over the detergent and press it until it locks in place.
  • The dispenser should be refilled just before the start of each program.

Using Combined Detergents

  • These products should be used according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Never put combined detergents into the interior section or the cutlery basket. Combined detergents contain not only the detergent but also rinse-aid, salt replacement substances, and additional components depending on the combination. We recommend you do not use combined detergents in short programs. Please use powder detergents instead.
  • If you encounter problems when using combined detergents, please contact the detergent manufacturer.
  • When using combined detergents, make sure that water hardness and rinse-aid settings are set to the correct level.
  • If you stop using combined detergents make sure that the levels are adjusted accordingly.

Rinse-aid Usage

  • The rinse-aid helps to dry the dishes without streaks and stains.
  • Rinse-aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses.
  • The rinse aid is automatically released during the hot rinse phase.
  • If the rinse-aid dosage setting is set too low, whitish stains may remain on dishes, and dishes do not dry or wash properly.
  • If the rinse-aid dosage setting is set too high you can see bluish layers on glass, dishes, and the interior of the dishwasher.

Filling The Rinse And Setting
To fill the rinse-aid compartment, open the rinse-aid compartment cap. Fill the compartment with rinse-aid to the MAX level and then close the cap. Be careful not to overfill the rinse-aid compartment and wipe up any spills. If excessive amounts spill it is advisable to immediately run the Prewash cycle

To change the rinse-aid level, follow the below steps before turning on the machine:

  • Open the door of the machine.
  • Turn on the machine, and press the Programme button as soon as the machine is turned on.
  • Hold down the Programme button until all LEDs blink twice. The rinse-aid setting follows the water hardness setting
  • The machine will display the last setting.
  • Change the level by pressing the program button.
  • Switch off the machine to save the setting.

The factory setting is ’4’. If the dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, increase the level. If blue stains form on your dishes, decrease the level.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Cleaning your dishwasher is important to maintain the machine’s service life Make sure that the water softening setting is done correctly and the correct amount of detergent is used to prevent limescale accumulation. Refill the salt compartment when the salt sensor light comes on. Oil and limescale may build up in your Dishwasher over time. If this occurs:

  • Fill the detergent compartment but do not load any dishes.
  • Select a program that runs at high temperature and run the Dishwasher empty.
  • If this does not clean your Dishwasher sufficiently, use a cleaning agent designed for use with dishwashers.
  • To extend the life of your dishwasher, clean the appliance regularly, preferably each month.
  • Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated residue or foreign objects.

Filters
Clean the filters and spray arms at least once a week. If any food waste remains or foreign objects on the coarse and fine filters, remove them and clean them thoroughly with water.

  • a) Micro Filter
  • b) Coarse Filter
  • c) Metal Filter
  • To remove and clean the filter combination, turn it counterclockwise and remove it by lifting it upwards (1).
  • Pull the coarse filter out of the microfilter (2).
  • Then pull and remove the metal filter (3).
  • Rinse the filter with lots of water until it is free of residue. Reassemble the filters. Replace the filter insert, and rotate it clockwise (4).
  • Never use your dishwasher without a filter.
  • Incorrect fitting of the filter will reduce the washing effectiveness.
  • Clean filters are necessary for the proper running of the machine.

Spray Arms

  • Make sure that the spray holes are not clogged and that no food waste or foreign objects are stuck to the spray arms.
  • If there is any clogging, remove the spray arms and clean them under water.
  • To remove the upper spray arm, undo the nut holding it in position by turning it clockwise and pulling it downwards.
  • Make sure that the nut is properly tightened when refitting the upper spray arm.
  • To remove the lower spray arm pull the arm upwards from the centre.

Drain Pump
Large food residues or foreign objects that were not captured by the filters may block the waste water pump. The rinsing water will then be above the filter.

Warning Risk of cuts!
When cleaning the wastewater pump, ensure that you do not injure yourself on pieces of broken glass or pointed implements.

In this case:

  1. First always disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
  2. Take out the baskets.
  3. Remove the filters.
  4. Scoop out water, use a sponge if required.
  5. Check the area and remove any foreign objects.
  6. Install filters.
  7. Re-insert baskets.
