How to use the dishwasher

Please read the user instructions carefully.

Upper and lower rack

Tips and advice

• Arrange crockery so that items do not

touch each other. Arrange large

crockery in the lower rack and smaller

crockery in the upper rack.

• Load cups at an angle to facilitate

water circulation.

• Generally speaking, place cutlery in the

basket with the handles positioned

downwards, but ensure that any sharp

knives and forks that might cause

injury are placed in the basket with the

handles positioned upwards.

• Make sure the water jet can reach all

loaded items and that the spray arms

turn freely.

Important

• Fill the detergent dispenser and check

the salt and rinse aid level.

• Do not use the appliance for items not

suitable for washing in a dishwasher,

for example: wooden items, aluminium,

plastic utensils, tin, hand-decorated

crockery (unglazed), silver cutlery.

• Do not put liquid fat in the dishwasher

(e.g. oil used for frying) or candle wax.

• If regeneration salt is to be added,

immediately

start a wash programme

in order to eliminate any residual salt

(rinsing alone is not sufficient).

• Sometimes, even though the

regeneration salt container has been

filled, the corresponding indicator light

(if fitted) will light up during the first

wash cycle after filling with salt.

• Before starting a wash programme,

make sure that the spray arms can turn

freely and are not impeded by crockery

or cutlery.

• Switch off the dishwasher after the

selector's knob is back in the start

position. If the dishwasher is turned off

during the washing programme, when

switched on again, the dishwasher

resumes the wash cycle from where it

was interrupted.

If a fault occurs, before contacting our

After-Sales Service, make the following

checks to try and remedy the problem:

The dishwasher is not working:

• Is the plug properly inserted in the wall

socket?

• Is there a power failure?

• Is the dishwasher switched on?

• Is the water supply tap on?

• Is the flow of water obstructed by

impurities? If so, close the water supply

tap, detach the water hose and clean the

filter. Then re-connect the water hose to

the tap and open the water tap once

again.

• Are the filters clogged? (see “Care and

Maintenance” chapter in the user

instructions).

• Is the door closed properly?

Crockery still dirty after washing:

• Was the crockery loaded properly?

• Crockery must be loaded facing

downwards; make sure, especially for

large crockery, that water can run away

immediately without being trapped inside

the crockery.

• The water jets must spray the entire

surface of all items.

• Make sure that crockery and cutlery are

arranged properly.

• Have you selected the correct programme?

• Did you use too much or too little detergent?

(The use of poor quality detergents result in

less effective washing).

• Are the filters clogged or incorrectly

assembled? (See “Care and Maintenance”

chapter in the user instructions).

• Are the spray arms blocked or the nozzles

clogged? (See “Care and Maintenance”

chapter in the user instructions).

• Is the salt container cap (water softening

system) screwed down?

Marked crockery:

• Is the salt dispenser properly adjusted?

(See “Filling the salt container” in the user

instructions).

• Is the salt container empty?

(See “Filling the salt container” in

the user instructions).

• Was too little detergent used?

(See “Filling the detergent dispenser”

in the user instructions).

Marked glasses and cutlery:

• Was too much rinse aid used?

(See “Filling the rinse aid dispenser”

in the user instructions).

If, after carrying out the above checks

the malfunction persists or appears

again, turn the appliance off and turn

off the water supply tap, then call

our After-Sales Service (see guarantee).

Please specify:

• The nature of the fault.

• The appliance type and model.

• The service code (the number

indicated after the word Service

on the adhesive rating plate)

inside the door on the

right-hand side.

•

Your full address and

telephone number.
