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 1.5 kg of salt into the water softener. o It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of the water softener, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does not mean that the water softener is filled with the correct amount of salt.
Setting the water softener level It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to the table below). ° dH WATER HARDNESS ° fH ° Clarke Mmol/L 0-5 0-9 0-6 0-0.94 6-11 10-20 7-14 1.0-2.0 12-17 21-30 15-21 2.1-3.0 18-22 31-40 22-28 3.1-4.0 23-34 41-60 29-42 4.1-6.0 35-55 61-98 43-69 6.1-9.
Filling with rinse aid The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes. These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on items after the wash program has completed. o Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid. o The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door, next to the detergent dispenser. o To access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole.
Setting the rinse aid level The amount of rinse aid that the dishwasher requires also depends on the hardness of your water. You should experiment with the rinse aid setting, until you find a level that gives the best results. o On the first wash cycle, we would recommend that the rinse aid level is set to number 4. o If you get water spots and poor drying performance, then you should turn the arrow anticlockwise and increase the setting to the next number.
o Open the lid that closes over the detergent dispenser by pushing the release button. The lid will spring open. Place the detergent inside of the dispenser. o The section marked A 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.
Concentrated detergent o The use of the NORMAL program with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes. o This wash program is specifically suited to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of concentrated detergent. For this reason, the NORMAL program, in which concentrated detergent is used, can achieve the same results achieved in the INTENSIVE program. Detergent tablets o Different brands of detergent tablets dissolve at different speeds.
o Use the diagram above as a guide to the most appropriate way to load the upper basket. IMPORTANT: Care should be taken when placing long stemmed glassware, such as champagne glasses in the upper basket. If they are not positioned correctly, then there is a risk that they may topple over when the upper basket is pushed in or pulled out.
IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to make sure that the spray arms can move freely when items have been loaded into the baskets. Loading the lower basket The lower basket is most suited to washing larger and more heavily soiled items, such as saucepans, saucepan lids and serving dishes. You can also load bowls and a variety of plates into the lower basket. 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. 5. 6.
7. 8. 9. 10. Dessert dishes Dinner plates Soup plates Oval platter Folding spikes of lower basket o The bottom rack has prongs 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, separately from each other. You should take care to ensure that cutlery items do not touch as this may result in a poor wash performance. 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 always suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:o Stoneware should only be washed if the manufacturer of the item has marked it as dishwasher safe. o Plastic items (such as lunchboxes) should only be washed if the manufacturer has marked it as dishwasher safe. o Glazed crockery may fade with repeated washing inside of a dishwasher. o Items made of silverware or aluminium can discolour when washed inside a dishwasher.
ECONOMY** GLASS 1 HOUR RAPID For lightly soiled loads, such as plates, glasses, bowls and lightly soiled pans. For lightly soiled loads such as glasses, crystal and fine china. A daily wash program in only 1 hour. For lightly and normally soiled plates and pans. A shorter wash for lightly soiled loads that do not need drying.
o IMPORTANT: Wait for 5 seconds before pressing the program selection button, otherwise the appliance may not function correctly. o Press the program button (7) to choose an appropriate wash program for the load that you are washing. The relevant program indicator (6) will light to show which program you have selected. o Close the door firmly, so that you hear the door lock click shut. o After a few seconds, you will hear the appliance begin to fill with water and the wash program will have started.
o Close the dishwasher door. After about 10 seconds the wash program will continue automatically. At the end of a wash program o The time display will flash for 8 seconds and a buzzer will sound. o Open the door of the appliance. o Use the ON/OFF button (1) to switch the dishwasher off. o Wait for about 15 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.
o Use the delay start button (2) to choose a delay start time of 3, 6, 9 or 12 hours in the future. The relevant delay start indicator (4) will light on the display. o Close the door firmly, so that you hear the door lock click shut. o When the programmed delay start time has elapsed, the dishwasher will automatically begin the chosen wash program.
o Use the shorter and lower temperature cycles for everything but the dirtiest dishes. Shorter cycles use less energy and work just as well. Modern detergents also work just as well at lower temperatures. 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.
Cleaning the filters For best performance and results, the entire filter assembly should be thoroughly cleaned regularly (ideally after each wash cycle). 1. 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 To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut and rotate the arm clockwise to remove it. o To remove the lower spray arm, gently pull it upwards. o Wash the spray arms in warm, soapy water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. o Rinse the spray arms thoroughly and then reassemble the spray arms back in their original positions.
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. Error code failure system If your appliance senses that it is not operating correctly, then a program indicator light may flash.
9 The drain pipe may be placed in too high a position or incorrectly. Check the installation instructions and ensure that the installation is correct. o Once you have taken action to rectify the problem that has caused the fault code to appear, plug the machine back into your mains power supply. o Turn the machine on using the ON/OFF button and wait for 5 seconds, before attempting to set a wash program, using the program selection button.
