Detergent and Rinse Aidꢀ  
Detergent  
Rinse Aid  
Detergent specifically intended for use with dishwashers must  
be used. The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each  
wash cycle following the instructions provided in the "Wash Cycle  
Table". The detergent dispenser is located on the inside panel of  
the door.  
This product makes dishes sparkle and helps them to dry with-  
out spotting. The dispenser is located on the inside panel of the  
door and should be filled after every 80 wash cycles.  
Loading the Rinse Aid  
Regardless of the type detergent dispenser installed on your  
appliance, you must proceed as indicator below when loading  
the rinse aid.  
Loading the detergent  
To open the "A" cover on the dispenser, press the "B" button.  
The detergent for the wash cycle should be poured into the "C"  
compartment.  
To open the dispenser, turn the "C" cap in the anti-clockwise  
direction and then pour in the rinse aid, making sure not to overfill.  
The amount of rinse aid used for each cycle can be regulated by  
turning the "F" dose adjustor, located beneath the "C" cap, with  
a screwdriver. There are 6 different settings; the normal dosage  
setting is 3.  
After the detergent has been placed in the dispenser, close the  
cover and press down until it clicks in place.  
B
Important:  
Proper dosage of the rinse aid improves drying.  
If drops of water remain on the dishes or spotting occurs, the  
dosage adjustor should be turned to a higher setting.  
If the dishes have white streaks, turn the dosage adjustor to a  
lower setting.

Notice:To facilitate closing the cover, remove any excess  
detergent on the edges of the dispenser.  
Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can  
be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact  
with the skin and eyes and keep children away from the  
dishwasher when the door is open. Check that the de-  
tergent receptacle is empty after completion of the wash  
cycle.

Loading the Dishwasher  
Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove the large food  
particle to prevent the filter from becoming clogged, which results  
in reduced performance.  
Lower Rack  
Upper Rack  
If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to  
remove, we recommend that they be allowed to soak before they  
are washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycle.  
Pull out the rack to facilitate loading the dishwasher.  
How to Use the Lower Rack  
We recommend that you place the items which are the most diffi-  
cult to clean items on the lower rack: pots, lids, serving dishes and  
bowls, as shown in the figure to the right.  
Load for 9 Standard Settings  
It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the  
racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.  
- Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed face down.  
- Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.  
- The lower rack features fold down tine rows (see fig.A) so that  
larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.  
- The silverware basket can not be doubled (see fig.B) .  
- Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket with the  
handles at the bottom; if the rack has side baskets, the spoons  
should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Espe-  
cially long utensils should be placed in the horizontal position at  
the front of the upper rack.

Starting the Appliance  
Starting a wash cycle  
At the end of the wash cycle  
- Make sure that the plug for the appliance is inserted into the wall  
socket.  
When the knob stops turning and is aligned with a STOP mark  
(see figure), the cycle has finished. Turn off the appliance using  
the ON-OFF button, turn off the water supply and open the door  
of the dishwasher.  
- Make sure that the water supply is turned on to full pressure.  
- Load the dishwasher (see the section entitled, "Loading the  
Dishwasher").  
Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid  
handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more  
susceptible to breakage. They will also dry better.  
- Pour in the detergent (see the section entitled, "Detergent  
and Rinse Aid").  
- Turn the knob located on the right of the control panel in the  
clockwise direction until the number or symbol for the cycle sec-  
tion entitled, "Wash Cycle Table").  
- Press the ON-OFF button, and the ON-OFF light will turn on. At  
this point, the wash cycle will begin.  
Important:  
In general, it is not advisable to open the door while the machine  
is working. Care must be taken if the door is opened during the  
hot phase or immediately after a programm has finished as steam  
may escape.  
Cancelling or modifying a wash cycle setting  
Press the ON-OFF button and the ON Light will turn off. Rotate  
the knob in the clockwise direction to the desired cycle setting  
(see the section entitled, "Starting a wash cycle..."). Then, turn  
the dishwasher back on using the ON-OFF button.

Energy Saving Tips  
- Use the right amount of detergent: if you use too much detergent,  
the result will not be cleaner dishes, but, rather, a greater nega-  
tive impact on the environment.  
- It is important to try and run the dishwasher when it is fully  
loaded to save on energy. In order to prevent odors from form-  
ing and food from caking onto the dishes, you can run the soak  
cycle.  
- There is no utility in rinsing dishes, cookware and untensils  
before placing them in the dishwasher.  
- Choose the right wash cycle: the choice of cycle depends on  
the type of dishware, cookware and utensils being washed and  
how dirty they are.  
How to Keep Your Dishwasher in Shape  
After Every Wash  
When You Go on Holiday  
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and  
leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not  
trapped inside.  
When you go on holiday, it is recommended 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 ajar. This will help the seals last longer and pre-  
vent odors from forming within the appliance.  
Remove the Plug  
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the  
plug from the socket. Do not run risks.  
Moving the Appliance  
If the appliance must be moved, try to keep it in the vertical position.  
If absolutely necessary, it can be positioned on its back.  
No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products  
To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not  
use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, use only a  
cloth and warm soap water.  
Seals  
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is  
food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a  
sponge will prevent this from occurring.  
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a  
cloth dampened with water and white vinegar, or a cleaning  
products made specifically for dishwasher.

Cleaning and Special Maintenance  
Filter Assembly  
Cleaning the Spray Arms  
For the best performance and results, the filter assembly must  
be cleaned.  
It may happen that food particle become encrusted on the sprayer  
arms and block the hole. Check the sprayer arms periodically  
and clean them when needed. (See "Close up view [interior]" ,  
letters C-E ).  
The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water,  
allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it  
is a good idea to remove the larger food particles trapped in the  
filter after each wash cycle by rinsing the "A" semi-circular filter  
and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull  
on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter as-  
sembly (made up of the "A" semicircular filter and the "B" fine  
filter) should be cleaned at least once a month. To clean the filter  
and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the  
filter parts as shown in the figures below and reinsert the entire  
assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and pressing  
downward.  
A
B
The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper  
replacement of the filters may reduce level of the appliance and  
damage dishes and utensils.  
Cleaning the Water Inlet Filter  
Periodically clean the water inlet filter located on the outlet of the  
water supply tap.  
After turning off the water tap, unscrew the end of the water sup-  
ply hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running  
water. Then, return the filter to its place and tighten the water  
supply hose back into position.  
Troubleshooting  
It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does not  
function properly. Before calling for assistance, let us see what  
can be done first: have you forgotten to press one of the buttons  
or to perform an essential operation?  
- the water supply to the house on and has  
sufficient pressure;  
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;  
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.  
The Dishwasher Does Not Drain  
Have you checked whether:  
The Dishwasher Does Not Start  
Have you checked whether:  
- the drain hose is crimped or bent.  
- the plug is pushed into the socket correctly;

- the door is closed properly;  
Lime Deposits or a White Film Form on the Dishes  
Have you checked whether:  
- the ON-OFF switch is on "ON";  
- the water supply is turned on.  
- the lid to the salt container is closed properly;  
- the rinse aid dosage is correct.  
The Dishwasher Does Not Load Water  
Have you checked whether:  
If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not function  
and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorised ser-  
vice centre and provide them with the following information:  
- the nature of the problem;  
- the water is turned on and the hose is  
connected properly;  
- the water supply to the house on and has  
sufficient pressure;  
- the model type number (Mod...) And the serial number (S/N...),  
which are indicated on the plate located on the side of the inner  
part of the door.  
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;  
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.  
Never call on unauthorised technicians and refuse to  
allow parts to be installed that are not original spare  
parts.

Installation  
Positioning the Appliance  
Drain Hose Connection  
Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should  
rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent  
cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply  
and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to  
facilitate proper installation.  
Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of  
4cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending or  
crimping it. Use the special plastic support that comes with the  
appliance (see fig.2). The free end of the hose must be at a height  
between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water.  
Levelling the Appliance  
Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screwing them  
in or out) to adjust the dishwasher, making it level. In any case,  
the appliance should not be inclined more than 2. If the appli-  
ance is level, it will help ensure proper performance.  
Cold Water Connection  
Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 (gas) connec-  
tor and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see fig.1).  
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  
and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there is a risk  
that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the appliance.  
fig.2  
Attention:  
The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to  
the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing  
water to spill outside the drain.  
Hot Water Connection  
The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the  
house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as  
long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60.  
Use the new hose and the old hose should not be reused.  
In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15  
minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.  
Electrical Connection  
The connection must be made to the hot water line following the same  
procedures as those for the connection to the cold water line.  
After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the  
current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate  
(located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and  
that the electrical system is sized for the maximum voltage on  
the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which  
is earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety  
requirement mandated by law).  
If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected  
is not appropriate for the plug, replace the plug, rather than using  
adaptors or the like as they could cause overheating and burns.
