WATER SUPPLY AND DRAIN

Cold water connection

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (inch) connector

and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period

of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear and free of

impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk that the water inlet

can get blocked and damage the appliance.

Provided water supply hose has the aqua-safe system. Ensure that

water supply hose’s aqua-safe pipe is connected to the faucet.

Hot water connection

The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house hot water line (centralized

system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60 °C. In this case, the

wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes and the wash efﬁ ciency slightly reduced.

The connection must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as those for

the connection to the cold water line.

Positioning the appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should rest against the wall behind

it, and the sides, along the adjacent cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with

water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to facilitate

proper installation.

How to drain excess water from hoses

If the sink is 1000mm higher from the ﬂ oor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly

into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable

container that is held outside and lower than the sink.

Water outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly ﬁ tted to avoid water leaks.

Ensure that the water inlet hose is not kinked or squashed.

Extension hose

If you need a drain hose extension, observe to use a similar drain hose.

It must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be

reduced.

Syphon connection

The waste connection must be at a height of between 40 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum)

from the bottom of the dishwasher. The water drain hose should be ﬁ xed by a hose clip.

Aqua-safe

The Aqua-safe System is a safety valve system, preventing you from water leaks. If the water

inlet hose starts to leak anytime, the safety valve cuts off the running water. If water inlet hose or

the safety valve is damaged, remove & replace it.

Do not enlarge or shorten the inlet hose.

WATER SOFTENER

The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial.

The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would have a detrimental

or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the

harder your water is. The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area.

Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.

Adjusting salt consumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on

the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt

consumption so that the salt consumption could be set proceed as follows:

1. Unscrew the cap from the salt container.

2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see ﬁ gure

to the side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the anticlockwise

direction from the “-” Setting toward the “+”sign, based on the

hardness of the water being used. It i s recommended that

adjustments should be made in accordance with the following

WATER SOFTENER

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the

dishwasher, deposits will from on the dishes and utensils. The appliance is equipped with

a special softener that uses a salt speciﬁ cally designed to eliminate lime and minerals from

the water.

using the detergent and water softener _15

LOADING THE SALT INTO THE SOFTENER

Always use salt intended for use with dishwasher.

The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be ﬁ lled as follows:

ATTENTION

• Only use s alt speciﬁ cally designed for use in dishwashers! All other types of salt not speciﬁ cally

designed for use in a dishwasher, e specially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of

damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is

liable for any caused damages.

• Only ﬁ ll with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent

any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been split, remaining of the bottom of the

machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

• After the ﬁ rst wash cycle the control panel light expires.

1. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from

the salt container.

2. If you are ﬁ lling the container for the ﬁ rst time, ﬁ ll 2/3 of its volume with water (around 500 ml).

3. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce

about 1,2 kg of salt. It is Normal for a small amount of water to come

out of the salt container.

4. Carefully screw the cap back on.

5. Usually, the salt warning light will be off in 2-6 after the salt container days be ﬁ lled with salt.

• The salt container must be reﬁ lled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.

Though the salt container is ﬁ lled enough, the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully

dissolve.

If there is no salt warning light in the control panel, you can judge when to load the salt into the

softener by the cycles that the dishwasher had run (see the following schema ).

• If there are spills of the salt, a pre-wash option should be run to wipe them out.

FILL THE RINSE AID DISPENSER

Function of rinse aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and

streak free drying.

ATTENTION : Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never ﬁ ll the rinse aid dispenser

with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would

damage the appliance.

When to reﬁ ll the rinse aid dispenser

If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by

the color of the optical level indicator “D” located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container

is full, the whole indicator will be dark. As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot

decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1/4 full.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot

on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated

below.

RINSE AID DISPENSER

1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the “open” (left)

arrow and lift it out.

2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to

overﬁ ll.

3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with “open” arrow

and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

The rinse aid is released during the ﬁ nal rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your

dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to sheet off

the dishes.

Your dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside

the door next to the detergent dispenser. To ﬁ ll the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse

aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid

container is about 130 ml.

Be careful not to overﬁ ll the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any

spills with a damp cloth. Don’t forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.

ATTENTION : Clean up any rinse aid split during ﬁ lling with an absorbent cloth to avoid

excess foaming during the next wash.

Adjusting rinse aid dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser has four settings. Always start with the

dispenser set on “3”. If spots and poor drying are problems, increase

the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and

rotating the dial to “4”. We suggest you to set on “3” (Factory value is

“3”).

Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on

the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a

bluish ﬁ lm on glassware or knife blades.

put powder detergent into the dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes.

Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergent can be split in two basic types:

• conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components

• low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes

The use of “normal” washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces

pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the

dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason “normal”

wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that

can otherwise only be achieved using “intensive” programmes.

Detergent tablets

Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent

tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programmes.

Therefore please use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to unsure the complete

removal of detergent residuals.

Detergent dispenser

The dispenser must be reﬁ lled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions

provided in the Wash Cycle Table. Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid then

conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal

wash load. Also, more heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just

before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Detergents

There are 3 sorts of detergents.

1. With phosphate and with chlorine.

2. With phosphate and without chlorine.

3. Without phosphate and without chloride.

Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. The water softener function of

phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to ﬁ ll salt in the salt container even when the

hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate were used in case of hard water

often white spots appear at dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach

better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will

not removed completely. In this case please choose a programme with higher temperature.

HOW TO USE THE 3 IN 1 OPTION

Your dishwasher has a 3 in 1 option which needs not salt and rinse aid but a 3 In1 tablet. And this

dishwasher comes with a 3 in 1 tablet container as an accessory. This option can select on auto, intensive,

normal or eco program only.

Only 3 in 1 option uses 3 in 1 tablet. If using 3 in 1 tablet without this option, the appliance will not get

it’s best performance.

1. Referring to the below sketch map, hang the 3 in

1 tablet container on the upper basket.

2. Referring to the below sketch map, rotate the upper sprayer

and of the container if need to make sure the upper sprayer

does not be cumbered by the 3 in 1 tablet container.

3. Put the 3 in 1 tablet into the container then start the 3 in 1 option.

When use “3 in 1 Combination / Compact Detergents, please pay attention to make sure that the size

of the Combination Detergents is ﬁ tted to the dispenser, so that Combination Detergents can be ease

to put in the dispenser, and dispenser would not be broken.

ATTENTION : Keep all detergents in a safe place out of children’s reach.

Always add the detergent in the dispenser just before starting the dishwasher.
