INSTALLING THE MACHINE

Positioning the machine

• When considering the location of the dishwasher, ensure that there is adequate space to enable the loading and unloading of the dishes.
• Do not put your machine in any location where the ambient temperature can fall below 5°C.
• Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by following the warnings located on the package.
• Position the machine close to a water tap and drain. You need to position your machine, taking into consideration that its connections will not be altered once they are made.
• Do not grip the machine by its door or panel to move it.
• Take care to leave a certain clearance from all sides of the machine so that you can comfortably move it back and forth during cleaning.
• Make sure that the water inlet and outlet hoses do not get squeezed while positioning the machine. Also, make sure that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable. Adjust the machine’s feet so that it is level and stable.
• Proper positioning of the machine ensures problem-free opening and closing of its door.
• If the door of your machine does not close properly, check if the machine is stable on the floor; if not, adjust the feet and ensure it is level and stable.

Water connection

• Ensure that the indoor plumbing is suitable for installing a dishwasher and complies with AS/NZS 3500.1.
• Also, we recommend that you fit a filter at the entrance of your place or apartment to avoid any damage to your machine because of any contamination (sand, clay, rust, etc) that might be occasionally carried in through the main’s water supply or the indoor plumbing, and to avoid problems of staining and formation of deposits after washing.

Water inlet hose

• Do not use the water inlet hose of your old machine, you must use the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine.
• Before connecting the water inlet hose to the water tap, ensure clean water is flowing from the tap before making the connection.
• Connect the water inlet hose directly to the water inlet tap. The pressure supplied by the tap should be at a minimum of 0.03 MPa and a maximum of 1 MPa. If the water pressure is above 1 MPa, a pressure relief valve should be installed.
• WARNING Only turn the locking nut to secure the hose – do not turn the hose.
• The first time you use the appliance, make sure that there is no leakage.
• The water inlet hose has a safety valve and a sheath with an inner mains cable.
• After the connections are made, the tap should be turned on fully and checked for water tightness.
• For the safety of your machine, make sure to always turn off the water inlet tap after each wash program is finished.

WARNING

• NOTE: Aquastop inlet hose has components using 240V. Do not cut the Aquastop inlet hose. Do not let it get folded, twisted, kinked, or crushed.
• NOTE: A water tempering valve is required if the water temperature is over 60°C.
• CAUTION Always use new hoses when you connect the appliance to the water mains. Old hoses must not be used. The water inlet hose must be examined at an interval of twelve months for deterioration and replaced if necessary.
• In order to pass the safety valve through the kitchen cabinets, an opening of at least 45mm x 90mm is needed.

Water drain hose

• If you connect the water drain hose to a trap spigot under the sink, remove the plastic membrane. If you do not remove the entire membrane, the remaining food can cause a blockage in the drain hose spigot.
• Ensure a hose clamp is used to secure the hose to the spigot.

Water drain hose

• The water drain hose can be connected either directly to the water drain hole or to the sink outlet spigot. Using a hose hook (if available), the water can be drained directly into the sink by positioning the hose hook over the edge of the sink.
• This connection should be at a minimum of 50 cm and a maximum of 110 cm above the base of the dishwasher.
• WARNING Maximum drain hose length is 4m. Longer hose length will prevent correct draining and result in poor wash performance.

Electrical Connection

• The plug of your machine should be connected to an earthed outlet that supplies suitable voltage and current. If there is no earthing installation, have a competent electrician carry out an earthing installation.
• In case of usage without earthing installed, our company will not be responsible for any loss of usage that might occur.
• The indoor fuse current value should be 10-16 A.
• Your machine is designed for 220-240 V. The machine should not be plugged in during installation.
• Always use the molded plug supplied with your machine.
• Running at low voltage will cause a decline in washing quality.
• The machine’s electrical cable should be replaced by an authorized service or an authorized electrician only. Failure to do so may lead to accidents.
• For safety purposes, always make sure to disconnect the plug when a wash program is finished.
• In order not to cause an electric shock, do not unplug when your hands are wet.
• When disconnecting your machine from the mains supply, always pull from the plug. Never pull the cord itself.

1. Adjust the machine feet according to the slope of the floor.
2. Fit your machine by pushing it undercounted without letting the hoses get crushed or bent.

PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE

Prior to using the machine for the first time

• Check whether the electricity and water supply specifications match the values indicated by the installation instructions for the machine.
• Remove all packaging materials inside the machine.
• Fill the rinse aid compartment.

Detergent usage

• Use a detergent specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers. You can find powder, gel, and tablet detergents in the market that have been designed for household dishwashers.
• Detergent should be put into the compartment before starting the machine.
• Keep your detergents in cool, dry places out of reach of your children. Do not fill detergent into the detergent compartment more than required; otherwise, it may etch your glasses as well as leave undissolved detergent in the dishwasher.
• Should you need more information concerning the detergent to use, contact detergent manufacturers directly.

Filling the detergent compartment

• Push the latch to open the detergent container as shown in the image.
• The Detergent pod has level lines inside. It is possible to measure the right detergent amount using these lines.
• The detergent pod can take a maximum of 40cm3 detergent.
• Open the dishwasher detergent pod and pour 25cm3 if your dishes are heavily soiled or 15cm3 if they are less soiled.
• You may have to add more detergent to your machine, depending on the degree of soil and the water hardness in your area.
• If your dishes are from the previous day and there is dried food waste on them, or if you have fully loaded the dishwasher, pour 5cm3 detergent onto the base of the door and start your machine.

Combined detergent

• Detergent manufacturers also produce combined detergents called “2 in 1”, “3 in 1” or “5 in 1” etc.
• “2 in 1” detergents contain detergent or rinse aid.
• When using “2 in 1” detergent make sure to check the specifications of the tablet.
• Other tablet detergents contain detergent + rinse aid + various extra functions/additives.
• Generally, combined detergents produce acceptable results under certain usage conditions only. These detergents contain rinse aids in preset amounts.

Points to consider when using these types of products:

• Always make sure to check the specifications of the product you will use or whether or not it is a combined product.
• 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 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 you stop using combined detergents, make sure that the rinse aid setting is set to the correct level.
• Recommended usage: If you want to obtain better results while using combined detergents, add a rinse aid to your machine and adjust the rinse aid setting to the lowest position.
• The solubility of the tablet detergents produced by different companies can vary depending on the temperature and time.
• Therefore, it is not recommended to use these detergents in short programs. It is more suitable to use powder detergents and rinse aid in short programs.
• WARNING Should any problem occur that you have not encountered before, with the use of these types of detergents, contact the detergent manufacturers directly.

When you STOP using combined detergents

• Fill the rinse aid compartments.
• Select a suitable rinse aid setting.

Filling with rinse aid and setting

• Release the program button when “RA” is shown. Next, the last setting level is displayed.
• Set the level by pushing 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 rinse-aid level. If blue stains form on your dishes, decrease the rinse-aid level.

TIPS AND INFORMATION

• Only use a rinse aid suitable for automatic dishwashers.
• As rinse aid residues left as a result of overflowing will create extremely high amounts of foam and reduce the washing performance, remove the excess amount of rinse aid by wiping it with a cloth.
• Remove all excess rinse aid if spilled while filling.

LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER

• For best results, follow these loading guidelines.
• Loading the household dishwasher up to the capacity indicated by the manufacturer will contribute to energy and water savings.
