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.
IMPORTANT: It is only necessary to do this when you fill the container with salt for the first time. o Pour salt into the water softener, using the funnel that is supplied with the appliance. You should add approximately 1.2 kg of salt into the water softener container. o It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of the water softener container, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does not mean that the container is filled with the correct amount of salt.
To alter the amount of salt that is released by the water softener, you should:o Remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap from the water softener container. o Locate the ring with an arrow on it that is located on the water softener container. (See figure opposite). o When you first receive your appliance, the arrow will be pointing to the minus symbol. Using the water hardness chart, you should turn the arrow to the setting that is appropriate for your water hardness. 4.
o Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, as this could cause oversudsing when a wash program is selected. Wipe away any rinse aid excess or spillages with a damp cloth. o Replace the cap and turn it clockwise until it locks into position. o You should refill the rinse aid dispenser when the rinse aid required warning light comes on. o IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets then you should still fill the rinse aid dispenser.
Filling with dishwasher detergent The detergent dispenser must be refilled at the start of each wash cycle (apart from the Rinse wash program). o Open the lid that closes over the detergent dispenser and place the detergent inside of the dispenser. o The section marked 1 in the diagram 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 You should position the dishes and cookware in such a way that they are not moved by the spray of water during the wash cycle. o Use the diagram above as a guide to the most appropriate way to load the upper basket. 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 supports.
Upper position o If the lower wheels are placed in the guide supports, 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 Saucepans and serving bowls must always be placed with their bases upwards. o Deep saucepans should be slanted, to allow water to run off. o The bottom rack has prongs at the rear of the basket that can be folded downwards, 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 suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:o Cutlery with a handle of mother-of-pearl, wood, horn or china. o Plastic items that are not resistant to heat. o Cutlery that consists of glued parts that are not resistant to heat. o Cutlery items or crockery that are bonded. o Copper or pewter items. o Lead crystal glass. o Wooden platters o Synthetic fibre items.

Cleaning and maintenance IMPORTANT: The appliance should be disconnected from your mains supply before commencing any cleaning process. 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.

Turn the coarse filter anti-clockwise 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.
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 IMPORTANT: Remove the lower basket before attempting to remove the lower spray arm. o To remove the spray arms, unscrew the nut and take out the washer that sits on top of the spray arms. o Gently pull upwards to remove the lower spray arm. o Gently pull downwards to remove the upper spray arm.
Cleaning the door o To clean the edge around the outside of the door, you should use a soft, damp cloth only. o To prevent water from penetrating the door lock or electrical components, DO NOT use a spray cleaner of any kind. o DO NOT use any abrasive cleaner or scouring pads on the inner or outer surfaces, as they may cause damage to them.
