hose firmly into place with your

hands and then complete by

tightening about ¼ of a turn with

pliers.

In dishwas

hers equipped with the

AQUASTOP device, the filters is

already fitted inside the threaded

ring.

Installation

The dishwasher can also be connected to a hot

water supply not exceeding 60°C

. Supplying

the appliance with hot water cuts down the

washing time be approximately 20 minutes, but

slightly reduces its effectiveness. Make the

connection to the domestic hot water supply

using the same procedure described for

connecting to the cold wate

r supply.

Supplementary note regarding the water

connection, for the German market:

Before connecting the product to the water supply,

make sure that that the water system has been fitted

with a safety device to protect drinking water against

contamination due to backflow (according to DIN EN

User instructions

TO SAVE ON ENERGY! … AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT

 If the manufacturer's instructions and recommendations are

followed, washing the same number of similarly soiled dishes in a

dishwasher consumes less water and energy than if they were

washed by hand.

 Always use the dishwasher . with a full load

 Load the dishwasher as indicated in the instructions manual. If the

dishwasher is loaded incorrectly, it may lead to poor results as well

as waste water, energy and detergent.

 Do not wash dishes under running water before placing them in the

dishwasher. It would just waste water and energy.

 Use the washing program that is for each type of most appropriate

load.

 If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water supply up to 60°C.

 If the manufacturer's instructions and recommendations are followed,

washing the same number of similarly soiled dishes in a dishwasher

consumes less water and energy than if they were washed by hand.

TO CUT DOWN ON DETERGENT CONSUMPTION! … AND PROTECT

THE ENVIRONMENT

The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the

environment. To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save

on electricity, observe the following:

 separate the more delicate items from dishes that are more

resistant to aggressive detergents and high temperatures;

 do not pour detergent directly onto the dishes.

User instructions

If the door has to be opened while washing is in progress, the program will

be interrupted. The relative light will keep flashing and a beeper will signal

that the cycle has not been completed. You must wait about 1 minute

before closing the door to restart the program. When the door is closed

the program will continue from where it was interrupted. This operation

should only be carried out , because it might cause if strictly necessary

problems in execution of the program.

ENERGY MANAGEMENT

After (washing cycle completed, stopped or set but 5 minutes of waiting

not started) the dishwasher switches off.

REMOVING THE DISHES

At the end of the washing program, wait at least before 20 minutes

4.2 Adding the salt

The amount of scale contained in the water

(water hardness index) can cause whitish

staining on the dry dishes, which tend to

become dull over time. The dishwasher is

equipped with an automatic softening

system which uses a special regenerating

salt to reduce the hardness of the water.

When using water of medium hardness, the regenerating salt container

should be refilled after approximately . The salt 20 washing cycles

container can hold approximately of salt in grains. Some models are 1 kg

equipped with an optical no-salt indicator. In these models, the cap of the

salt container contains a green float which descends as the salt

concentration in the water drops. When the green float can no longer be

seen through the transparent cap, the container must be topped up with

regenerating salt. The container is situated at the bottom of the

dishwasher.

The salt prevents the formation of scale

deposits.

 Remove the lower basket.

 Unscrew the cap of the salt container by

turning it anticlockwise.

 When using the dishwasher for the first time, fill the container with a

litre of water.

 Pour salt (approx. 1 kg) into the container using the funnel provided

with the dishwasher.

 When finished, remove any salt residues before screwing the cap

back on.

User instructions

In order for the water softening system to give fault-free service, the appliance

performs a regeneration cycle of the system at regular intervals.

The regeneration process consists of several stages. It starts at the end of the last

rinse cycle, after the amount of water indicated in the mains water hardness setting

has been reached during the wash cycle, and finishes at the beginning of the

following wash cycle.

The regeneration process increases the cycle time and consumption of water and

electricity.

Below is an overview of consumption of regeneration the softening system using the

Eco program with a water hardness setting of H2.

 Each time the salt container is refilled, make sure that the cap is

securely closed. The mixture of water and detergent must never

penetrate the salt container, as this would compromise the operation

of the regeneration system. In this case warranty cover will be

forfeited.

 Only use regeneration salt specifically for domestic

dishwashers. Do not use table salt, since it contains insoluble

substances that could damage the water softener system.

 After having added salt, run a wash cycle to remove any excess salt.

In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed

by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may

lead to . corrosion

Be careful not to confuse the salt and detergent packages; adding

detergent to the salt container will the water softening system. damage
