Prior to using for the first time
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the
installation instructions
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with
dishwasher salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
The water softener
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove
minerals and salts from the water supply, 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.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees,
French degrees and mmol/l (millimol per litre).
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.
The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water
hardness dial and electronically, using the option selection button:
option WATER HARDNESS.

Filling with dishwasher salt
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a
dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener.
Only fill 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 spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period
of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap of
the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only
before filling with salt for the first time).
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the
salt until the container is full.
4. Replace the cap making sure that
there is no trace of salt on the screw
thread or on the gasket.
5. Replace on the cap tightly turning it
clockwise until it stops with a click.
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
The salt refilling is indicated by a flashing message in the display
REFILL SALT.
This occurs only during the setting mode and at the end of the
washing programme, during the progress of the washing programme
the indication for salt refilling is not active.
The salt refilling indication can remain active from 2 to 6 hours
after the salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher
remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to
dissolve then this can take longer. The function of the machine is
not affected.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt,
this is quite normal.

Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring
thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. The dispenser, which
is positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is
sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing programmes, depending upon the
dosage setting.
Filling with rinse aid
1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The
maximum level for filling is indicated by “max”.
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth
to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the rinse aid
dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning
agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

• Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwasher.
• Fill with dishwasher detergent.
• Select a wash programme suitable for the cutlery and dishes.
• Start the wash programme.
Loading cutlery and dishes
Sponges, household cloths and any object that can absorb water
may not be washed in the dishwasher.
Before loading the dishes, you should:
- Remove large left-overs.
- Soften remnants of burnt food in pans.
When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note:
- Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms.
- Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc, with the opening
downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a
deep base.
- Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or
cover each other.
- To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch.
- Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.
Plastic items and pans with teflon have a tendency to retain
water drops; these items will not dry as well as porcelain and steel
items.

mother-of-pearl handles
Plastic items that are not heat
resistant
Older cutlery with glued parts that is
not temperature resistant
Bonded cutlery items or dishes
Pewter or copper items

safe by the manufacturer.
Glazed patterns may fade if machine

Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency
to discolour during washing. Residues, e.g.
egg white, egg yolk and mustard often
cause discolouring and staining on silver.
Therefore always clean left-overs from silver
immediately, if it is not to be washed
straight after use.
Some types of glass can become dull after a
large number of washes.
