Installation Instructions

Prior to Installing Appliance

WARNING: ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD

Disconnect electrical power before installing dishwasher. Failure to do so could result in death or electrical shock.

IMPORTANT: The installation of the pipes and electrical equipments should be done by professionals.

Power Connection

WARNING: FOR YOUR PERSONAL SAFETY

• Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug with this appliance.
• Do not, under any circumstances, cut or remove the earthing connection from the power cord.

Electrical requirements

Please look at the rating label to know the rating voltage and connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power supply. Use the required fuse 10A/13A/16A, time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended and provide separate circuit serving only this appliance.

Electrical connection

Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power being corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly. If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected is not appropriate for the plug, replace the socket, rather than using a adapters or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.

WARNING: Ensure that proper earthing exists before use.

Water Supply And Drain

Cold water connection

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.

WARNING: A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole plugged.

Levelling the appliance

Once the appliance is positioned for levelling, the height of the dishwasher may be altered via adjustable levelling feet. Do not be incline the appliance by more than 2°.

Diagram Description: Shows a dishwasher with adjustable feet at the bottom corners, illustrating how to adjust height for levelling.

Installation Instructions (Continued)

Connection of Drain Hoses

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or crimping it. The height of drain pipe must be less than 1000mm. The free end of the hose must not be immersed in water to avoid the back flow of it.

WARNING: Ensure that the drain hose is securely fixed in either position A or position B.

How to drain excess water from hoses

If the sink is 1000 higher from the floor, the excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink.

Water outlet

Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that the water drain hose is not kinked or squashed.

Extension hose

If you need a drain hose extension, make sure to use a similar drain hose. It must be no longer than 4 meters; otherwise the cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be reduced.

Siphon connection

The waste connection must be at a height less than 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dish. The water drain hose should be fixed.

Diagram Description: Illustrates the dishwasher rear connection to mains cable, water inlet, and drain pipe. The drain hose is shown connected to a drain pipe or siphon under the sink, with a maximum height of 1000mm indicated. Position A and B are shown for securing the drain hose.

Installation Instructions (Continued)

Positioning the Appliance

When positioning the appliance in your desired location, the back should rest against the wall behind it, and the sides should be along the adjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned either to the right or the left sides to facilitate proper installation.

The installation position of dishwasher should be near the existing inlet and drain hoses and power cord.

Freestanding Installation

Fitting between existing cabinets

The height of the dishwasher, 845 mm, has been designed in order to allow the machine to be fitted between existing cabinets of the same height in modern fitted kitchens. The feet can be adjusted so that correct height is reached.

The laminated top of the machine does not require any particular care since it is heatproof, scratch proof and stain proof.

Diagram Description: Shows a dishwasher being fitted between cabinets, with dimensions indicating required clearances. It also shows electrical, drain, and water supply line entrances.

Built-in Installation

Fitting underneath a benchtop

In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single bench top under which cabinets and electrical appliances are fitted. In this case remove the work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top (a).

ATTENTION: After removing the work top, the screws must be screwed again under the rear edge of the top (b).

The height will then be reduced to 815 mm, as scheduled by the International Regulations (ISO) and the dishwasher will fit perfectly under the kitchen working top.

Diagram Description: Illustrates the process of removing the dishwasher's worktop for built-in installation, showing screw locations (a, b) and the resulting reduced height.

Diagram Description: Shows a dishwasher door and cabinetry, indicating a minimum space of 50mm.

Preparing & Loading Dishes

Washing Considerations

• Consider buying utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof.
• For delicate items, select a program with the lowest possible temperature.
• To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher immediately after the program has ended.

Removing the dishes

To prevent water dripping from the upper basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the lower basket first, followed by the upper basket.

WARNING: Items will be hot! To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher for around 15 minutes after the program has ended.

Cutlery & Dishware Suitability

The following are not suitable

• Cutlery with wooden, horn china or mother-of-pearl handles
• Plastic items that are not heat resistant
• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant
• Bonded cutlery items or dishes
• Pewter or cooper items
• Crystal glass
• Steel items subject to rusting
• Wooden platters
• Items made from synthetic fibers

The following are of limited suitability

• Some types of glasses can become dull after a large number of washes
• Silver and aluminum parts have a tendency to discolour during washing
• Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently

Loading Recommendations

Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water.

For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines:

• Items such as cups, glasses, pots/pans, etc. are faced downwards.
• Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so that water can run off.
• All utensils are stacked securely and can not tip over.
• All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
• Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. With the opening facing downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
• Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
• To avoid damage, glasses should not touch one another.
• The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups.
• Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard!
• Long and sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
• Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results and for reasonable consumption of energy.

NOTE: Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket.

Preparing & Loading Dishes (Continued)

Folding Back the Lower Basket Pronges

The pronges on the lower basket are used for holding plates and platters. They can be lowered to make more room for large items such as pots and pans.

Folding the Cup Shelves Back

To make room for taller items in the upper basket, raise the cup rack upwards. You can then lean the tall glasses against it. You can also remove it when it is not required for use.

Diagram Description: Shows pronges on the lower basket being folded down. Also shows cup shelves on the upper basket being raised upwards or folded backwards.

Adjusting the Upper Basket Height

The height of the upper basket can be easily adjusted to accommodate taller dishes in either the upper or lower basket by following these steps:

1. Pull out the upper basket.
2. Remove the upper basket.
3. Re-attach the upper basket to upper or lower rollers.
4. Push in the upper basket.

Diagram Description: Illustrates the three positions for adjusting the upper basket height using rollers, showing the basket in a lower position and an upper position.

Preparing & Loading Dishes (Continued)

Loading the Lower Basket

We suggest that you place large and difficult to clean items into the lower basket: such as pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure below. It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

The maximum diameter advised for plates in front of the detergent dispenser is of 19 cm, this not to hamper the opening of it.

Loading the Upper Basket

The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty). Position the dishes and cookware so that they will not get moved by the spray of water.

It also illustrates three options for the cutlery drawer: lifting one side to make it flat, overlapping the right side to the left, and removing the right basket to allow space for taller items in the upper basket.

Rinse Aid & Detergent

Function of the Rinse Aid & Detergent

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids.

WARNING: 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.

When to refill the rinse aid

The regularity of the dispenser needing to be refilled depends on how often dishes are washed and the rinse aid setting used.

• The Low Rinse Aid indicator (*) will appear in the display when more rinse aid is needed.
• Do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser.

Filling The Rinse Aid Compartment

1. Remove the rinse aid compartment cap by lifting up the handle.
2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.
3. Close the cap when done.

Diagram Description: Shows the rinse aid compartment with steps for filling it.

Function of detergent

The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

WARNING: Proper Use of Detergent

• Use only detergent specifically made for dishwashers use. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
• Don't put powdered detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash dishes.
• Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Keep dishwasher detergent out of the reach of children.

Cleaning & Maintenance

External Care

The door and the door seal

Clean the door seals regularly with a soft damp cloth to remove food deposits. When the dishwasher is being loaded, food and drink residues may drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door. These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray arms. Any deposits should be wiped off before the door is closed.

The control panel

If cleaning is required, the control panel should be wiped with a soft damp cloth only.

WARNING:

• To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.
• Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they may scratch the finish. Some paper towels may also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

Internal Care

Filtering System

The filtering system in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse debris from the washing cycle. The collected coarse debris may cause the filters to clog. Check the condition of the filters regularly and clean them if necessary under running water. Refer to the following steps to clean the filters in the wash cabinet.

NOTE: Diagrams and pictures in this manual are only for reference, the filtering system and spray arms may appear differently.

WARNING:

• Do not over tighten the filters. Put the filters back in sequence securely, otherwise coarse debris could get into the system and cause a blockage.
• Never use the dishwasher without filters in place. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage dishes and utensils.

Diagram Description: Shows the steps for removing and cleaning the dishwasher filter assembly. Step 1: Hold and rotate the coarse filter anticlockwise to unlock and lift it out. Step 2: Pull off the fine filter and detach the coarse filter from the main filter. Step 3: Rinse filters under running water, using a brush for stubborn dirt. Step 4: Reassemble the filters in reverse order.

Cleaning & Maintenance (Continued)

Spray arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings. To clean the spray arms, follow the instructions below:

1. To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut in the center still and rotate the spray arm counterclockwise to remove it.
2. To remove the lower spray arm, pull out the spray arm upward.
3. Wash the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them throughly.

Caring For The Dishwasher

Frost precaution

Please take frost protection measures on the dishwasher in winter. Every time after washing cycles, please operate as follows:

1. Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source.
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3. Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to gather the water)
4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.

After every wash

After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly open so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Remove the plug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket.

No solvents or abrasive cleaning

To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Only use a cloth with warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water an a little vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

After prolonged inactivity

It is recommend that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly open. This will help the door seals to last longer and prevent odours from forming within the appliance.

Moving the appliance

If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it vertical. If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

Food can remained trapped in the seals which can cause odours. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
