Connecting the water outlet hose
Anti-condensation strip*
EN
After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stick the
adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in order to
protect it from any condensation which may form.
Connect the outlet hose (without bending it) to a drain duct
with a minimum diameter of 4 cm. Alternatively, rest it over a
sink or tub; the free end of the hose should not remain
immersed in water.
Advice regarding the first wash cycle
After the appliance has been installed, immediately before
running the first wash cycle, completely fill the salt dispenser
with water and add only then approximately 1 kg of salt (see
chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may
overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. Select
the water hardness value (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and
refined salt). - After the salt has been poured into the
machine, the LOW SALT indicator light* switches off.
The special plastic elbow*
makes it easier to find the

Loading the racks
Adjusting the height of the upper rack
In order to make it easier to arrange the crockery, the upper
rack may be moved to a higher or lower level.
Before loading the racks, remove all food residues from
the crockery and empty liquids from glasses and cups.
After loading the appliance, check that the sprayer arms
can rotate freely.
EN
The height of the upper rack should ideally be adjusted WHEN
THE RACK IS EMPTY.
Lower rack
The lower rack can hold pans, lids, plates, salad bowls,
cutlery, etc. as seen in the Loading examples.
Plates and large covers should be placed at the sides of the
rack, ensuring that they do not block the rotation of the upper
sprayer arm.
Some dishwasher models are fitted with tip-up sections,
which can be used in a vertical position when arranging
plates or in a horizontal position when arranging pans and
salad bowls.
Never lift or lower the rack on one side only.
Open the left and right guide rail stops
and pull out the rack; position it higher or
lower as required, slide it along the guide
rails until the front wheels are in place
and close the stops (see figure).
If the rack is fitted with Dual Space
handles* (see figure), pull out the upper
rack until it reaches its stop point, grip the
handles at the sides of the rack and move
it upwards or downwards, then slowly let it
fall back into place.
Loading examples for the upper rack
Cutlery basket
The type of cutlery basket may vary according to the
dishwasher model: it may be modular, non-modular or a sliding
version. The non-modular basket must only be positioned at the
front of the lower rack.
The modular basket may be separated into two parts, a solution
which is recommended when performing a half load wash (only
in models offering this option), is available in a sliding version
(positioned at any point on the lower rack by sliding it between
the fixed or tip-up inserts.
Loading examples for the lower rack
- Both versions are fitted with a collapsible sliding system which
means the cutlery can be arranged in the best possible way.
Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be
placed in the cutlery basket with the points facing
downwards, or they must be positioned horizontally in the tip-
up compartments on the upper rack.
Items which should not be washed in the
dishwasher
• Wooden items, objects with wooden or horn handles or
glued-on parts.
• Items made from aluminium, copper, brass, pewter or tin.
• Items made from plastic material which is not heat-resistant.

Measuring out the rinse aid
5*
Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water
runs off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave
streaks or marks.
The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:
• When the LOW RINSE AID* indicator light on the control
panel is illuminated;
For values between 0°f and 10°f, we do not
recommend the use of salt.
* this setting may cause a slight increase in the
duration of the cycle.
1. Open the dispenser by turning
the lid (G) in an anticlockwise
direction.
(°dH = hardness measured in German degrees - °f =
hardness measured in French degrees - mmol/l = millimoles
per litre)
2. Pour in the rinse aid, making
sure it does not overflow from the
dispenser. If this happens, clean
the spill immediately with a dry

cloth.
In order to achieve the best possible results using a wash
cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refined
salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding the
formation of deposits on crockery.
3. Screw the lid back on.
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.
Adjusting the amount of rinse aid
The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the
dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled:
• When the green float* cannot be seen by simply looking at
the cap of the salt dispenser.
• When the LOW SALT* indicator light on the control panel is
illuminated;
If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results,
you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a
screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6
pre-set positions (the default position is set to 4):
• If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustment
device to a lower number (1-3).
• If drops of water remain on the crockery or if there are
limescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set
the adjuster to a higher number (4-6).
1. Remove the lower rack and
unscrew the cap of the dispenser (in
an anti-clockwise direction).
2. For the first wash cycle only: fill
the dispenser up to the edges with
water.
3. Position the funnel* correctly (see
figure) and fill the salt dispenser up
Setting the water hardness
Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by
using refined salt designed especially for this type of
appliance, supplies water without limescale which is then used
to wash the crockery.
to the edges (approximately 1 kg); it
is normal for a little water to leak out.
4. Remove the funnel, wipe away any salt residue from the
opening and screw the cap on tightly, so that detergent
does not leak into the dispenser during the wash cycle (this
could damage the water softening system beyond repair).
This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce
pollution and optimises washing performance in accordance
with the water hardness level in your area. This information can
be obtained from the organisation which supplies your
household with water.
- Open the door and switch on the machine by pressing the
ON/OFF button.
- Press the P button and hold for approximately 5 seconds;
two short beeps will sound and the indicator light
corresponding to the set degree of hardness will flash
When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash
cycle so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the
salt dispenser is removed.

Care and maintenance
Shutting off the water and electricity
supplies
Cleaning the filters
EN
The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food
residues from the washing water and then recirculate the
water. They should be cleaned if you wish to achieve the best
results in every wash.
• Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid
leaks.
• Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and
when performing maintenance work.
Clean the filters regularly.
The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or if the
filter is loose.
Cleaning the dishwasher
• The external surfaces of the machine and the control
panel may be cleaned using a non-abrasive cloth
which has been dampened with water. Do not use
solvents or abrasive products.
• After several washes, check the filter assembly and if
necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a
non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:
1. Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise direction
and pull it out (fig. 1).
2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the
side flaps (fig. 2).
3. Slide out the stainless steel plate filter A (fig. 3).
4. Inspect the trap and remove any food residue. NEVER

Precautions and advice
This appliance was designed and manufactured in
compliance with current international safety standards.
The following information has been provided for safety
reasons and should therefore be read carefully.
Saving energy and respecting the
environment
EN
Saving water and energy
• Only begin a wash cycle when the dishwasher is full.
While waiting for the dishwasher to be filled, prevent
unpleasant odours using the Soak cycle (see Wash
cycles).
General safety
• The appliance was designed for domestic use inside
the home and is not intended for commercial or
industrial use.
• Select a wash cycle which is suited to the type of
crockery and to the soil level of the crockery using the
Table of wash cycles:
• The appliance must be used by adults only, to wash
domestic crockery in accordance with the
instructions in this manual.
- For dishes with a normal soil level, use the Eco wash
cycle, which guarantees low energy and water
consumption levels.
• The appliance must not be installed outdoors, even in
covered areas. It is extremely dangerous to leave the
machine exposed to rain and storms.
• Do not touch the appliance when barefoot.
• When unplugging the appliance always pull the plug
from the mains socket, do not pull on the cable.
• The water supply tap must be shut off and the plug
should be removed from the electrical socket before
cleaning the appliance or carrying out any
maintenance work.
- If the load is smaller than usual activate the Half load
option* (see Start-up and use).
• If your electricity supply contract gives details of
electricity saving time bands, run wash cycles during
the periods when a lower tariff is applied. The
Delayed start* button (see Start-up and use) helps you
organise the wash cycles accordingly.
Phosphate-free and chlorine-free detergents
containing enzymes
• If the appliance breaks down, do not under any
circumstances touch the internal parts in an attempt
to perform the repair work yourself.
• We strongly recommend that you use detergents that
