WATER CONNECTION

The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused.

  • The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to the left or right.
  • The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than 60°C.
  • Water pressure must be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa.
  • The inlet hose must be connected to a tap so that the water supply can be cut off when the machine is not in use (fig. 1 B).
  • The dishwasher is fitted with a 3/4″ threaded connector (fig. 2).
  • Connect inlet hose “A” to water tap “B” with a 3/4″ attachment making sure that it has been properly tightened.
  • If it is necessary, the inlet pipe can be lengthened up to 2,5 m. The extension pipe is available from the After Sales Service Centre.
  • If the dishwasher is connected to new pipes or to pipes that have not been in use for a long time run water through for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. In this way, no deposits of sand or rust will clog up the water inflow filter.

    Hydraulic safety devices

    All the dishwashers are equipped with an overflow safety device which, if water exceeds normal levels due to malfunctions, automatically blocks water flow and/or drains excess
    quantities.
    SOME MODELS may include one or more of the following features: water block (fig. 3) The water block system has been designed to improve the safety of your appliance. The system prevents flooding which might be caused by a  machine malfunction or as a result of a fracture on the rubber pipes and in particular on the water supply pipe.
    How it works
    A sump located on the base of the appliance collects any possible water leakage and operates a sensor that activates a valve placed under the water tap and blocks any water, even with the tap fully opened. If box “A” containing the electrical parts is damaged, remove the plug from the socket immediately. To ensure perfect operation of the safety system, the hose with box “A” should be connected to the tap as shown in the figure. The water supply hose should not be cut, as it contains live parts. If the hose is not long enough for the correct connection, it must be replaced with a longer one. The hose can be obtained from the Technical Assistance Centre.

    AQUASTOP (fig. 4):
    A device located on the supply tube that stops water flow if the tube deteriorates; in this case, a red mark will appear in the window “A” and the tube must be replaced. To unscrew the nut, press the one-way lock device “B”.

    AQUA PROTECT – SUPPLY TUBE WITH GUARD (fig. 5):
    Should water leak from the primary internal tube “A”, the transparent containment sheath “B” will contain water to permit the washing cycle to complete. At the end of the cycle, contact the Customer Service Centre to replace the supply tube. Connecting the outlet hose

    • The outlet hose should disharge into a standpipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 6).
    • The standpipe must be at least 40 cm above floor level and it must have an internal diameter of at least 4 cm.
    • It is advisable to fit an anti-odor air trap (fig. 6X). If necessary the outlet hose can be extended up to 2,5 m, provided that it is kept at a maximum height of 85 cm above floor level. The extension pipe is available from the After Sales Service Centre.
    • The hose can be hooked over the side of the sink, but it must not be immersed in water, in order to prevent water from being siphoned back to the machine when this is in operation (fig. 6Y).
    • When installing the appliance under a worktop the hose pipe clamp must be attached to the wall in the highest possible position under the worktop (fig. 6Z).
    • Check that there are no kinks in the inlet and outlet hoses.

    3. LOADING THE SALT (Fig. A “1”)

    • The appearance of white stains on dishes is generally a warning sign that the salt container needs filling.
    • On the bottom of the machine, there is a container for the salt for regenerating the softener.
    • It is important to use only a salt that is specifically designed for dishwashers. Other types of salt contain small quantities of insoluble particles which over a long period of time may affect and deteriorate the softener performance.
    • To add salt, unscrew the cap of the container on the bottom and then refill the container.
    • During this operation, a little water will overflow, but keep adding salt until the container is full. When the container is full, clean the thread of salt residue and retighten the tap.
    • After loading the salt, it is recommended to run a complete washing cycle or COLD RINSE program. After loading the salt, YOU MUST run a complete washing cycle or the PRE-WASH/COLD RINSE/REFRESH program.
    • The salt dispenser has a capacity of between 1.5 and 1.8 kg and, for efficient use of the appliance, it should be refilled from time to time .

    (Only for the first startup) When the appliance is used for the first time, after completely filling the salt container, it is necessary to add water until the container overflows. 

    4. ADJUSTING THE UPPER BASKET (ONLY ON SOME MODELS)
    If 29 cm to 32.5 cm plates is regularly used, load them onto the lower basket after the upper basket has been placed in its upper position, as detailed below(according to the model):  Type “A”:

    1. Turn front blocks “A” outwards;
    2. Remove the basket and remount it in the upper position;
    3. Replace blocks “A” in the original position.

    Dishes that are greater than 20 cm in diameter can no longer be loaded onto the upper basket, and the mobile supports can not be used when the basket is in the upper position.

    Type “B”: (ONLY MODELS WITH EASY CLICK):

    1. Remove the upper basket;
    2.  Hold the basket on both sides and lift it upwards (fig. 1).

    Dishes that are greater than 20 cm* in diameter can no longer be loaded onto the upper basket, and the mobile supports cannot be used when the basket is in the upper position. * In models fitted with a third basket, dishes measuring more than 14 cm in diameter can no longer be loaded onto the upper basket.
    ADJUSTING THE BASKET  O THE LOWER POSITION:

    1. Hold the basket on both sides and lift it gently upwards (fig. 1);
    2. Then slowly release into the correct position (fig. 2).

    N.B.: NEVER LIFT OR LOWER THE BASKET FROM ONE SIDE ONLY (fig. 3).
    WARNING: We recommend adjusting the basket before loading the dishes.

    LOADING DISHES

    Using the upper basket

    • The upper basket is provided with mobile racks hooked to the sides of the basket, which can be regulated into 4 positions.
    • In the lowered position (A-A1) the racks may be used for such items as tea and coffee cups, kitchen knives, and ladles. Also, glasses with stems may be safely hung on the ends of the racks.
    • In the upright position (B-B1) the racks allow you to load dinner plates and soup plates up to a maximum diameter of 19 cm. Plates should be loaded vertically with the underside of the plate towards the back of the dishwasher with a space between each plate to allow water to pass freely.
    • It is advisable to load large plates (approx.26 or more cm) slightly tilted towards the rear to facilitate the introduction of the basket into the machine.
    • Salad bowls and plastic bowls may also be loaded on the upper basket. It is advisable to block these in place so that the jets of water do not make them overturn.
    • The upper basket has been designed to offer maximum flexibility in use and can be loaded with up to 24 plates on two rows, up to 30 glasses on five rows or a mixed load.

    A standard daily load is represented in figs. 1 and 2.
    Upper basket (fig. 1)

    Upper basket (fig. 2)

    Using the lower basket

    • Saucepans, oven dishes, tureens, salad bowls, lids, serving dishes, dinner plates, and soup plates can be loaded into the lower basket
    • Place the cutlery in the plastic cutlery holder with the handles pointing upwards and place the cutlery holder on the lower basket (fig. 6) making sure that the cutlery does not get in the way of the rotating arms.
    • The lower basket is fitted with a special adjustable central rack (fig. 3 and 4). This permits stable and optimum loading, even when the size and/or shape of the dishes is non-standard.

    – POSITION “A”: for a standard load, or one that excludes pans, salad bowls, and the like.
    – POSITION “B”: for dishes which, although standard size, have a particular shape (very deep bowls, square dishes or ones without borders etc.).
    – POSITION “C”: for larger than average flat plates and/or ones with non-standard shapes (square, hexagonal, oval, pizza dishes etc.).

    Smaller plates (used for dessert plates for example), can also be placed into the lower basket as shown in figure 5, with the support flap placed outwards (“E”). For normal or large plates the flap must be in the position (“D”).
    Upper basket (fig. 5)

    WARNING
    If the small plates are placed in the basket with the support flap in the incorrect position, the plates will interfere with the lower spraying arm preventing it to rotate.  A standard daily load is represented in fig. 6.
    Lower basket (fig. 6)

    Please load the dishwasher sensibly to ensure the best wash results.
    The lower basket has a safety-stop device, for its safe extraction, also especially useful with a full load. For loading salt, cleaning the filter, and for ordinary maintenance, the complete. extraction of the basket is necessary.
    The top of the cutlery basket can be removed, to enable various loading options (fig.7).
    CUTLERY BASKET (only on some models) WARNING
    Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.

    INFORMATION FOR TEST LABORATORIES

    Please ask for information required for comparison testing and measuring noise levels, according to EN normative, to the following address:
    In the request, please specify the model name and number of the dishwasher (see rating plate).
    LOADING THE DETERGENT (Fig. A “2”)
    The detergent It is essential to use a detergent that is specifically designed for dishwashers either in powder, liquid, gel or tablet form.
    Unsuitable detergents (like those for washing up by hand) do not contain the proper ingredients for use in a dishwasher and stop the dishwasher from working correctly.
    Filling the detergent container
    The detergent container is inside the door(fig. A “2”). If the lid of the container is closed, press the button (A) to open. At the end of every wash cycle, the lid is always open and ready for the next time the dishwasher is used.

    WARNING
    When loading the lower basket, please ensure that the plates or others do not obstruct the detergent dispenser.
    The amount of detergent to be used varies according to how dirty the dishes are and on the type of dishes to be washed. We advise using 20:30 g of detergent in thewash section of the detergent compartment (B).

    After pouring the detergent into the container, close the lid, firstly pushing (1) and then pressing on it (2) until you hear the click.

    Since not all detergents are the same the instructions on the boxes of detergent can vary. We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much detergent will not produce better results and is also a waste.
    Do not use an excessive amount of detergent and help limit damage to the environment at the same time.

    TYPES OF DETERGENT

    Detergent tablets
    Detergent tablets of different manufacturers dissolve at different speeds, for this reason, during short programs, some detergent tablets maybe not fully effective, because they are not completely dissolved. If these products are used, is recommended to choose longer programs to guarantee the complete use of the detergent. To get satisfactory washing results, the tablets MUST be placed in the wash section of the detergent container and NOT directly in the tub.
    Concentrated detergents
    The concentrated detergents, with reduced alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in conjunction with 50°C wash programs, have a smaller impact on the environment and they protect the dishes and the dishwasher. The 50°C wash programs purposely exploit the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes, allowing, therefore, with the use of the concentrated detergents, to achieve the same results as the 65°C programs but at a lower temperature.
    Combined detergents
    The detergents that also contain the rinse aid must be placed in the wash section of the detergent container. The rinse aid container must be empty (if it is not empty, set the rinse aid regulator to the lowest position before using combined detergents).
    “TABS” combined detergents
    If you are planning to use “TABS” (“3 in 1 “/ “4 in 1”/ “5 in 1”, etc.) combined detergents i.e. those with built-in salt and/or rinse agents, we would advise the following:

    • read carefully and follow the manufacturer’s instructions given on the packaging;
    • the effectiveness of detergents containing the built-in water softener/salt depends on the hardness of your water supply. Check that the hardness of your water supply is within the effective range given on the detergent packaging.

    If when using this type of product, you don’t get satisfactory washing results, please contact the detergent manufacturer.  In certain circumstances the use of combined detergents can cause:

    • limescale deposits on dishes or in the dishwasher;
    • a reduction in washing and drying performance.

    Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty. 
    Please note that using the “TABS” combined detergents, the rinse aid and salt indicator lights (only used on selected models) are superfluous, so you must ignore the lights. 
    If washing and/or drying problems occur, we recommend you return to use traditional separate products (salt, detergent and rinse agent). This will ensure that the water softener in the dishwasher operates correctly. In this case, we recommend that you:

    • refill both the salt and rinse aid container;
    • run one normal washing cycle without a load.

    Please note that on return to the use of conventional salt, a number of cycles will be required before the system becomes fully efficient again.
    9. LOADING THE RINSE AID (Fig. A “3”)
    The rinse aid
    The rinse aid, which is automatically released during the last rinsing cycle, helps the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots and stains from forming. Filling the rinse aid container.
    The rinse aid container can be found to the left of the detergent container (fig. A “3”). To open the lid, push the reference mark and, in the same time, pull the tab of opening. It is always advisable to use a rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwashers. Check the rinse aid level through the indicator eye (C) which is located on the dispenser.

    Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6
    The regulator (D) is placed under the lid and can be turned using a coin. The recommended position is 4. The limestone content of the water considerably affects the formation of limescale and the drying performance. It is therefore important to regulate the quantity of rinse aid to achieve good washing results.
    If, after the wash, streaks occur on the dishes, decrease the amount by one position. If whitish spots occur, increase the amount by one position10. CLEANING THE FILTERS (Fig. A “4”)
    The filter system consists of:
    A. A central container that traps the larger particles;
    B. A microfilter, located beneath the gauze, that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a perfect rinse;
    C. A flat gauze that continuously filters the wash water.

    • To achieve excellent results every time, the filters should be checked and cleaned after each wash.
    • To remove the filter unit, simply turn the handle anticlockwise (fig. 1).
    • For ease of cleaning, the central container is removable (fig. 2).
    • Remove the gauze filter (fig.3) and wash the whole unit under a jet of water. If necessary a small brush can be used.
    • With the Self-cleaning Microfilter, maintenance is reduced and the filter unit needs only be checked every two weeks.

    Nevertheless, after each wash, it is advisable to check that the central container and the gauze filter are not clogged.

    WARNING
    After cleaning the filters, make sure that they are correctly reassembled and that the gauze filter is properly positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher. Make sure that the filter is screwed back, clockwise, into the gauze, as poor seating of the filter unit could have an adverse effect on the efficiency of the appliance. 
    Never use the dishwasher without the filters.

    PRACTICAL HINTS

    How to get really good wash results.

    • Before placing the dishes in the dishwasher, remove any remaining food (bones, shells, pieces of meat or vegetables, coffee grounds, the skin of the fruit, cigarette ash, toothpicks, etc. to avoid blocking the filters, water outlet, and washing arm nozzles.
    • Try not to rinse the dishes before loading them into the dishwasher.
    • If saucepans and oven dishes are encrusted with the remains of burnt or roast food, it is advisable to leave them to soak before washing.
    • Place the dishes face downwards.
    • Try to place the dishes in such a way that they are not touching one another. If they are loaded properly you will get better results.
    • After loading the dishes check that the washing arms can rotate freely.
    • Pans and other dishes that have particularly stubborn food particles or remnants of burnt food should be left to soak in water with dishwasher detergent.
    • To wash silver properly:

    a) rinse the silver immediately after use, especially if it has been used for mayonnaise, eggs, fish etc.;
    b) do not sprinkle detergent onto it;
    c) keep it separate from other metals.

    How to make savings.
    Tips on how to save money and not damage the environment when using your appliance.

    • Achieve the best use of energy, water, detergent and time by using the recommended maximum load size. Save up to 50% energy by washing a full load instead of 2 half loads.
    • If you want the dishwasher to give a complete wash, place the dishes in the dishwasher at the end of each meal and if necessary turn on the COLD RINSE cycle to soften the food remains and remove bigger particles of food from the new load he of dishes.

    When the dishwasher is full start the complete wash cycle program.

    • If the dishes are not very dirty or if the baskets are not very full select an ECONOMY program, following the instructions in the program list.
    • The most efficient programs in terms of combined use of water and energy are usually the longer-lasting ones with lower temperatures. What not to wash.
    • It should be remembered that not all dishes are suitable for washing in a dishwasher. We advise against using the dishwasher to wash items in thermoplastic, cutlery with wooden or plastic handles, saucepans with wooden handles, items in aluminum, crystal leaded glass unless otherwise stated.
    • Certain decorations may fade. It is therefore a good idea before loading the whole batch to wash just one of the items first so as to be sure that others like it will not fade.
    • It is a good idea not to put silver cutlery with non-stainless steel handles into the dishwasher as there could be a chemical reaction between them. When buying new crockery or cutlery always make sure that they are suitable for washing in a dishwasher.

    Useful hints

    • In order to avoid any dripping from the top rack, remove the lower rack first.
    • If the dishes are to be left in the machine for some time, leave the door ajar, to let some air circulate and to improve the drying performance.

    CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

    Looking after your appliance correctly can extend its lifespan.
    Cleaning the appliance’s exterior 

    • Disconnect the machine from the power supply.
    • To clean the dishwasher outside, do not use solvents (degreasing action) or abrasives, but only a cloth soaked with water.

    Cleaning the appliance’s interior

    • The dishwasher does not require special maintenance, because the tank is self-cleaning.
    • Regularly wipe the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove any food remains or rinse aid.
    • Dishwasher cleaning is recommended, in order to remove limestone deposits or dirt. We suggest you run a washing cycle periodically with specialist dishwasher cleaning products. For all cleaning operations, the dishwasher must be empty.
    • If, in spite of the routine cleaning of the filters, you notice that the dishes or pans are not properly washed or rinsed, check that all the spray heads on the rotor arms (fig. A “5”) are clear.

    If they are blocked, clean them in the following way:
    1) to remove the upper rotor arm, turn it until it lines up with the stop marked by the arrow (fig. 1b). Push it upwards (fig. 1) and, keeping it pushed in, unscrew it in a clockwise direction (to reassemble it repeat the same operation, but turn it anticlockwise). The lower rotor arm can be removed simply by pulling it upwards (fig. 2);
    2) wash the rotor arms under a jet of water to clear any blockage in the spray heads.
    Do not use tools that can deform the spray heads.
    3) when you have finished, refit the rotor arms in the same position, remembering to re-align the arrow and screw into position.

    • Both the door lining and the tank lining are in stainless steel; however, should spots caused by oxidation occur, this is probably due to a high level of iron salts presents in the water.
    • The spots can be removed with a mild abrasive agent; never use chlorine-based materials, steel wool, etc.

    WHEN THE CYCLE IS FINISHED.
    After every wash, it is essential to turn off the water supply and to switch off the machine by pressing the On/Off button to the off position.
    If the machine is not going to be used for sometimes, it is advisable to follow these rules:

    1. do an empty wash with a detergent in order to clean the machine of any deposits;
    2. pull out the electric plug;
    3. turn off the water tap;
    4.  fill the rinse aid container;
    5. Leave the door ajar;
    6.  keep the inside of the machine clean;
    7. If the machine is left in places where the temperature is below 0°C any water left inside the pipes may freeze. Wait until the temperature rises above zero and then wait for about 24 hours before.

    AUTOMATIC” programs (only on some models)
    Models with Smart Loading Sensor
    The “AUTO WASH” program, thanks to an algorithm that analyses the degree of the dirtiness of the dishes in real-time, automatically sets the ideal temperature and washing time, optimizing water and electricity consumption
    Models with a dirt sensor (Only on some models).
    The dishwasher is equipped with a dirt sensor, capable of analyzing water murkiness during all “AUTOMATIC” program phases (see program legend). Thanks to this device, the wash cycle parameters are automatically adapted to the real quantity of dirt on dishes. This is because water murkiness is linked to the quantity of dirt on dishes. Thus, excellent washing results are guaranteed while optimizing water and energy consumption. “IMPULSE” programs (only on some models) The “IMPULSE”  programs use impulse washing technology, which reduces consumption and noise and improves zerformance.
    The “intermittent” working of the washing pump is NOT to be considered a malfunction; it is a characteristic of impulse washing, and therefore should be considered a normal feature of the program.
    ADDIS (possibility of adding dishes after the program has started)
    When the program starts, you should only open the door and add more dishes when the KADDISH indicator light is switched on. The appliance will stop automatically and
    the time remaining to the end of the cycle will flash on the display. Close the door, without pressing any buttons.
    Open the door slowly and carefully, to avoid getting wet with splashes of washing water.
    Adding dishes after the KADDISH indicator light has switched off is strongly discouraged as this could affect the wash performance.
    WARNING
    If you open the door during the drying cycle, an intermittent audio signal advises you that the drying cycle has not yet finished.
    Program interruption
    Opening the door when a program is running is not recommended especially during the main wash and final hot rinse phases. However, if the door is opened while a program is running (for example, to add dishes) the machine stops automatically. Close the door, without pressing any buttons. The cycle will start from where it left off.
    WARNING:
    If you open the door during the drying cycle, an intermittent audio signal advises you that the drying cycle has not yet finished.
    Changing a running program.

    Proceed as follows to change or cancel a running program:

    • Open the door.
    • Keep the START/RESET button pressed for at least 3 seconds. “RESET” will appear on the display and acoustic signals will be emitted.
    • The running program will be canceled.
    • At this point, a new program can be set using the “PROGRAMME SELECTION”

    WARNING:
    A 5-second buzzer will sound (if not muted)3 times at 30-second intervals to signal that Before starting a new program, you should check that there is still detergent in the dispenser. If necessary, top up the detergent.
    Program end the program has ended.
    Only for models with the “SMART DOOR” option, during the drying phase, the door will open automatically and you will have to wait until for the end-of-cycle signal before
    removing the dishes.
    “PERFECT RAPID ZONE” (only on some models)
    The “Perfect Rapid zone” is identified by the left side of the tub, in which two extracting arms will be activated during Rapiprograms (ZOOM 39’ and Rapid 24′) and programs (UNIVERSAL, SANITISING UNIVERSAL PLUS, and ECO PLUS) provide an extra washing force, more water in that zone.

    Option buttons
    The option buttons provide you with further wash options, allowing you to customize the wash programs (see the table in chapter 17 for a list of programs on which each option can be enabled).
    Options are enabled (or disabled) before starting the program, using the appropriate buttons.
    The relevant indicator lights will appear (or disappear) on the display.
    The options button should be enabled after you have chosen the wash program.
    If an option is selected that is not compatible with the selected program then the option indicator light first flashes and then goes off.
    “EXPRESS” button (only on some models).
    This button enables average energy and time savings of 25% (according to the cycle selected), reducing the wash water temperature and the drying time during the final rinse. This option is recommended for evening washing when perfectly dry dishes are not needed immediately. For better drying, leave the dishwasher door slightly ajar to promote natural air circulation in the dishwasher.
    “SMART DOOR” (Automatic door opening) (Only in models where present)
    This option enables a special device that opens the door by a few centimeters at the end of the “ECO” program. The opening of the door in the final drying phase allows the air to circulate, eliminating the risk of unpleasant odors. When the door opens, the message “SMART DOOR” will appear on the display.
    WARNING This function will only be automatically activated with the “ECO” program. Should you choose to use the “EXPRESS” option, the SMART DOOR function will be disabled. For the operation of these OPTIONS, please refer to the “PROGRAM LEGEND”.
    WARNING With this option selected, you must not in any way prevent the door from opening or force it shut, as this would damage the mechanism. Ensure that there is free space in front of the door and, before closing, wait for the opening device to complete its activity.

    This option is recommended when using the RAPID 24′ program, the duration of which will be extended for about 15 minutes, allowing the detergent tablets to achieve better performance.
    “NO SALT” warning light
    If your dishwasher requires salt, “SALT” will be displayed when selecting the program. The appearance of whitish stains on dishes is generally a warning sign that the salt container needs filling.
    In order to guarantee the correct functioning of the salt indicator light, YOU MUST ALWAYS FULLY REPLENISH THE SALT CONTAINER.
