  • Page 4: Safety Instructions

    For safety reasons, you should not convert or modify your dishwasher in any way. Before using your dishwasher for the first time Check your dishwasher for any transport damage.
  • Page 5 Always turn off the water tap when your dishwasher is left unattended for any length of time, e.g. when you are away on holiday. Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position. Tipping it upside down during transport could cause salty water to leak into the internal compartment and lead to the formation of rust.
  • Page 6: Disposing Of Packaging And Old Machines

    Disposing of packaging and old machines Disposing of the packaging Our dishwashers require effective protective packaging in transit, though we always confine ourselves to what is absolutely necessary. Warning! Packaging parts (e.g. foils, styrene foam) may be dangerous for children and can cause suffocation. You should therefore keep all packaging well away from children.

    6. Run a "Rinse and Hold" programme. Setting the water hardness range 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.
  • Page 9: Filling With Special Salt

    Filling with special salt Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really is salt.
  • Page 10: The Rinse Aid

    When this has been done, all that is required is to periodically top up the container with salt. The salt cap has a refill indicator window in the centre. A green float is clearly visible when there is salt inside the container and almost disappears when the salt has finished reminding you to add salt.
  • Page 11 Adjusting the dose The correct dosage of the rinse-aid should be regulated on the basis of the shine and drying results. For this purpose, set the quantity of liquid by means of the six-position selector (C) located on the inside of the filler opening (minimum quantity is position 1, maximum quantity is position 6).
  • Page 12: Loading Cutlery And Dishes

    Wooden platters. Items made from synthetic fibres. Attention! When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher safe. Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing the performance. Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets.
  • Page 13: The Cutlery Basket

    The cutlery basket Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives. Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards.
