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.

Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.
If your model does not have any water softener, you may skip this section.
WATER SOFTENER
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will
form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt container specifically designed to eliminate
lime and minerals from the water.
Attention!
Only use salt specif ically de signed for the use in dishwashers! Every othe r type of
salt not specifically designed for the use in a dishwasher, espe cially t able sa lt, will
damage the water softe ner. I n cas e of da ma ges caused by the use of unsuitable
salt the manufacture r does not giv e any warranty nor is liable for any damages caused.
Only fill with salt jus t before starting one of the com plete washing progra ms .
This will prevent a ny grai ns of salt or salty water, which m ay have been spil led,
rem aining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause
corros ion.
A Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
B Before the first wash, fill 1lt. of water in the salt container of your machine.
C Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1kg of salt.
It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
D Carefully screw the cap tightly back clockwise.
E Usually, the salt warning light will stop being illuminated within 2-6 days after the salt container has been filled with
salt.
F Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started
Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged
by salty water. This is out of warranty.
1. The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.
Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still b e on even though the
salt container is filled.
If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some Models),you can estimate when to fill
the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.
2. If there are spills of the salt, a rapid program should be run to remove the excessive salt.
Attention!
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances
(e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
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 overfill.
3 Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.
Be careful not to overfill 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 filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming
during the next wash.
NOTE:
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glassware or
knife blades.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, detergents 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 programs in combination with concentrated det ergents
reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programs are specifically matched
to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason
“normal”wash programs in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same
results that can otherwise only be achieved using “intensive” programs.
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
programs. Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to
ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions
provided in the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than
Conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for
a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the
detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not
dissolve properly.
If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid will spring open.
Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle.
Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.
WARNING! Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.
If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent dose in the pre-wash detergent
chamber. This detergent will take effect during the pre-wash phase.
NOTE:
You find information about the amount of detergent for the single programm es on the
last page. Please aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of
water differences are possible.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of
phosphate is not given. In this case w e recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when
the hardness of water is only 6 °dH. If detergents without phosphate are use d in the case of hard water
often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach
better results. Detergents without chl orine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not
be removed completely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature.
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.
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the baskets.
Folding spikes
For better stacking of pots and pans, the spikes can be folded down as
show in the picture right.

NOTE:
Do not put in items that are dirty of cigarette ash, candle wax, lacquer or paint.
If you buy new dishes please make sure that they are suitable for dishwashers.
NOTE:
Please do not overload your dishwasher. Do not use dish that is not suitable for
dishwashers. This is important for good results and for reasonable energy
consume.
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
11
Attention!
Long bladed knives stored in an upri ght position are a potential hazard!
Long and/or sharp items of cutl ery such as carving knives must be positioned
horizontally in the upper basket.
Possible causes:
Type of glass or manufacturing process. Chemical composition of detergent.
Water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.
Suggested remedy:
Use glassware or porcelain dishes that have been marked di shwasher-proof by the
manufacturer
Use a mild detergent that is described as kind of dishes If necessary, seek further
information from detergent manufacturers.
Select a programme with as low a temperature.
To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the di shwasher as soon as possible
after the programme has ended.

The filter prevents larger remnants of food or other objects from getting inside the pump.
The residues may block the filter, in this case they must be removed.
The filter system consists of a coarse filter, a flat (Main filter)
And a microfilter (Fine filter).
Main filter 1
Food and soil particles trapped in this filter are pulverized by a
2 special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down the
drain.
Coarse filter 2
1 Larger items, such as pieces of bones or glass, that could clog
the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item
caught in this filter, gently squeeze the taps on the top of this
3 filter and lift it out.
Fine filter 3
This filter holds soil and food residues in the sump area and
prevents it from being redeposit on the dishes during a cycle.
- Inspect the filters for blocking after every time the dishwasher has been used.
- By unscrewing the coarse filter. you can remove the filter system. Remove any food remnants and clean the
filters under running water.
NOTE: When following this procedure from step1 to step 3, the filter system will be removed;
when following it from Step 3 to Step 1, the filter system will be installed.

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. This precaution is needed to avoid the
risk of the water inlet to be blocked and damage the appliance.
The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the household hot water
line (such as, central 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 efficiency slightly reduced.
The connection must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as
described in the section for the connection to the cold water line.
