Using your dishwasher Before first use o Install the appliance as per the installation instructions contained within this booklet. o Fill the water softener with 1 litre of tap water and then fill with specialist dishwasher salt. After this you should set the water softener level. o Fill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid dosage. Filling with dishwasher salt IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially designed for use in a dishwasher.
o It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of the water softener, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does not mean that the water softener is filled with the correct amount of salt. o Refit and fully tighten the water softener cap. o The salt required warning light will go out approximately 2-6 hours after you have filled the water softener with salt.
Filling with rinse aid The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes. These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on items after the wash program has completed. o Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid. o The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door, next to the detergent dispenser. To access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole (1).
Setting the rinse aid level The amount of rinse aid that the dishwasher requires also depends on the hardness of your water. You should experiment with the rinse aid setting, until you find a level that gives the best results. o On the first wash cycle, we would recommend that the rinse aid level is set to number 4. o If you get water spots and poor drying performance, then you should turn the arrow anticlockwise and increase the setting to the next number.
o The left section displayed in the diagram (A) is for the main wash cycle detergent. Only one detergent tablet should be placed in the dispenser at any one time. If you are using detergent powder or liquid, you should follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations. o The right section displayed in the diagram (B) can have separate detergent placed in it for any wash cycle that has a pre-wash element to it, however this is optional.
Adjusting the upper basket Your dishwasher has an adjustable upper basket which you can alter to the most suitable position for the items you are going to wash in the upper basket. o The height of the upper basket can be adjusted by removing the upper basket from the guide runners. o NOTE: you must remove the end caps from the runners before removing the basket. o IMPORTANT: The upper basket must be empty when you are removing it from the guide runners.
Upper position o If the lower wheels are placed in the guide runners, then the basket is in the upper position. o For accommodating items such as glass tumblers and wine glasses. Wine glasses should be placed upside down, so that the stem of the glass rests in one of the grooves on the side flap. o Please note that when the basket is in the upper position, you cannot have the side flaps in a raised position. Otherwise the basket will not slide back into the interior of the dishwasher.
o The bottom rack has prongs at the rear of the basket that can be folded down to allow for easier loading of larger saucepans and serving bowls. The cutlery basket Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket. The cutlery basket should then be placed in the appropriate position in the lower basket. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8.
Loading dishes and cutlery Household cloths, sponges or any other object that may absorb water SHOULD NOT be washed in a dishwasher. o Remove leftovers and soften the remnants of burnt food in pans, prior to loading dishes in the appliance. o Once the dishwasher has been loaded, check that the spray arms can move freely. If the spray arm comes into contact with any item, then you should rearrange the wash load.
The following items are not always suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:o Stoneware should only be washed if the manufacturer of the item has marked it as dishwasher safe. o Plastic items (such as lunchboxes) should only be washed if the manufacturer has marked it as dishwasher safe. o Glazed crockery may fade with repeated washing inside of a dishwasher. o Items made of silverware or aluminium can discolour when washed inside a dishwasher.

The filter system Your appliance is fitted with three levels of filtering; these are located in the base of the dishwasher for ease of access. 1) Main filter 2) Coarse filter 3) Fine filter Main filter- Food and soil particles are trapped by this filter and pulverised by a special jet on the lower spray arm. This debris is then washed down the drain.
Cleaning the filters For best performance and results, the entire filter assembly should be thoroughly cleaned regularly (ideally after each wash cycle). 1. Turn the coarse filter anticlockwise and then lift it upwards. Rinse out this section under a tap to remove any food debris that remains in it. 2. Pull out the main filter and rinse this under the tap to remove any food debris that is trapped in it. 3. Pull out the fine filter and rinse this under the tap to remove any food debris that is trapped in it.
Cleaning the spray arms The spray arms should be cleaned regularly, to prevent hard water deposits from clogging the spray arm jets and bearings. o To remove the spray arm, unscrew the nut and take out the washer that sits on top of the spray arm. o Gently pull upwards to remove the spray arm. o Wash the spray arm in warm, soapy water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. o Rinse the spray arm thoroughly and then reassemble the spray arm back in its original position.

Connecting to the water outlet o Secure the drain hose to the wall as indicated in the drawing above (A, B, C), so that it cannot move whilst the dishwasher is in use. The top of the hose should be between 40cm and 100cm from the ground. o Place the end of the drain hose on your drain pipe.
