■ The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a potential hazard ( es. tripping ). SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS There are certain basic safety rules which are valid for any domestic appliance. ■ Leaning or sitting on the open door of the dishwasher could cause it to tip over. WARNING ! Knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.
■ Cutlery is washed best if it is placed in the basket with the handles downwards. Disposal ■ If the appliance breaks down or stops working properly, switch it off, turn off the water supply and do not tamper with it. Repair work should only be carried out by an approved service agent and only genuine spare parts should be fitted. Any failure to follow the above advice may have serious consequences for the safety of the appliance.
Water connection IMPORTANT The appliance must be connected to the water mains using new hose-sets. The old hose-sets should not be reused. 1 ■ The inlet and drain hoses can be directed to left or right. IMPORTANT The dishwasher can be connected to either cold or hot water, as long as it is no hotter than 60 °C. 2 ■ Water pressure must be between 0,08 MPa and 0,8 MPa. If the pressure is below the minimum consult our service department for advice.
■ 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 syphoned back to the machine when this is in operation (fig. 4Y). Connecting the outlet hose ■ The outlet hose should disharge into a standpipe, making sure that there are no kinks (fig. 4). ■ 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. 4Z).
INSTALLATION IN FITTED KITCHENS Underneath existing work top (when fitting beneath a work top) Fitting between existing cabinets ■ In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single work 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 (fig. 6a).
WATER SOFTENER UNIT * The water softener unit is set in the factory at level 3, as this is suitable for the majority of users. Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks. The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is.
LOADING THE SALT IMPORTANT (Only for first start up) 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. ■ 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 dishwasher.

Turn the front stops “A” outwards; 2. Take out the basket and remount it in the upper position; 3. Replace the blocks “A” in their original position.

INFORMATION FOR THE TEST LABORATORIES Please ask information required for comparison testing and measuring noise levels, according to EN normative, to the following address: testinfo-dishwasher@candy.
LOADING THE DETERGENT The detergent IMPORTANT It is essential to use a detergent that is specifically designed for dishwashers either in powder, liquid or tablet form. 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. “FINISH” gives very good results and can be easily obtained.
■ 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. TYPES OF DETERGENT Detergent tablets Detergent tablets of different manufacturers dissolve at different speeds, for this reason, during short programmes, some detergent tablets may be not fully effective, because they are not completely dissolved.
LOADING THE RINSE AID 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 forming. Filling the rinse aid container C 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 rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwasher.
CLEANING THE FILTERS The filter system (fig.A “4”) consists of: 1 a central container that traps the larger particles; a flat gauze that continuously filters the wash water; a micro filter, located beneath the gauze, that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a perfect rinse. ■ 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).
PRATICAL HINTS How to make savings ■ 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 of dishes. When the dishwasher is full start the complete wash cycle programme.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE 1 1b ■ To clean the dishwasher outside, do not use solvents (degreasing action) neither abrasives, but only a cloth soaked with water. ■ 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.
