Filter Assembly
The filter efficiently removes food particles from the
wash water, allowing it to be recycled during the cycle.
For best performance and results, the filter must be
cleaned regularly. 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 semicircular filter
and cup under running water.
To remove the filter device, pull the cup handle in the
upward direction.
WARNING!
Ÿ The dishwasher must never be used without the
filters.

Ÿ When following this procedure from step 1 to step
3, the filter system will be removed; when following
it from Step 3 to Step 1, the filter system will be
installed.
Ÿ Inspect the filters for blocking after every time the
dishwasher has been used.
Ÿ By unscrewing the coarse filter, you can remove the
filter system. Remove any food remnants and clean
the filters under running water.
Ÿ The entire filter assembly should be cleaned once a
week.

could cause a fire hazard from overheated. Never
unplug the appliance by pulling the power cord.
Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out
from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately
all power cords that have become frayed or
otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows
cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at
either end. When moving the appliance, be careful
not to damage the power cord.

Ÿ WARNING: DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
OR AN ADAPTER PLUG WITH THIS APPLIANCE.
Grounding Instructions
Ÿ This appliance must be earthed. In the event of a

Installation

Using Your Dishwasher

Cold Water Connection
Ÿ Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded
3/4(inch) connector and make sure that it is
fastened tightly in place.
Ÿ 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. This precaution is
needed to avoid the risk of the water inlet getting
blocked and damaging the appliance.

Levelling
Ÿ Once the appliance is positioned for levelling, the
height of the dishwasher may be altered via
adjustment of the screwing level of the feet. In any
case, the appliance should not be inclined more
than 2 °.

Positioning the Appliance
Position the appliance in the desired location. The
back should rest against the wall behind it, and the
sides, along the adjacent cabinets or walls. The
dishwasher is equipped with water supply and drain
hoses that can be positioned either to the right or the
left sides to facilitate proper installation.

AT THE END OF THE WASH CYCLE

A forgotten dish can be added at any time before the
detergent cup opens.

When the working cycle has finished, the buzzer of
the dishwasher will sound for 8 seconds, then stop.
Turn off the appliance using the ON/OFF button, shut
off the water supply and open the door of the
dishwasher. Wait for 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.

1. Open the door a little to stop the washing.
2. After the spray arms stop working, you can open
the door completely.
3. Load the forgotten dishes.
4. Close the door, the dishwasher will start running
again after 10 seconds.

WARNING!
In order to avoid water staying in the inlet hose,
please close the hydrant after using. (Not applicable
to appliances without aqua-stop.)
Drain Hose Connection
Ÿ 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 . The top of the hose must be at a height
between 40 and 100cm. The free end of the hose
must not be immersed in water to avoid the back
flow of it.

FORGET TO ADD A DISH?

WARNING! It is dangerous to open the door when
washing, because the hot water may scald you.

Switch off the Dishwasher
When the digital display shows ‘-:--’ (remaining
program time), the program has ended.
1. Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the ON/OFF
button.
2. Turn off the water tap!

Water Outlet
Ÿ Connect the water drain hose. The drain hose must
be correctly fitted to avoid water leaks. Ensure that
the water drain hose is not kinked or squashed.
Extension Hose
Ÿ If you need a drain hose extension, make sure to
use a similar drain hose.
Ÿ It must be no longer than 4 metres; otherwise the
cleaning effect of the dishwasher could be
reduced.
Syphon Connection
Ÿ The waste connection must be at a height of
between 40 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum)
from the bottom of the dish. The water drain hose
should be fixed by a hose clip. The free end of the
hose must not be immersed in water.

Open the door carefully
The dishes should be allowed to cool down around
15 minutes before removing from the appliance.
Open the dishwasher's door, leave it ajar and wait a
few minutes before removing the dishes. Dishes will
be cooler and the drying will be improved.
Unloading the Dishwasher
It is normal that the dishwasher is wet inside.
Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one.
This will avoid water dripping from the upper Basket
onto the dishes in the lower one.

TURNING ON THE APPLIANCE

CHANGE THE PROGRAM

Starting a wash cycle:

Premise:

1. Draw out the lower and upper basket, load the
dishes and push them back. It is recommended to
load the lower basket first, then the upper one (see
the section entitled “Loading the Dishwasher”).

1. A cycle that is underway can only be modified if it
has only been running for a short time. Otherwise,
the detergent may have already been released, and
the appliance may have already drained the wash
water.

2. Pour in the detergent (see Page 10).
3. Insert the plug into the socket. The power supply is
220-240 VAC /50 HZ, the specification of the
socket is 10A 250VAC. Make sure that the water
supply is turned on to full pressure.
4. Open the door, press the ON/OFF button, and the
ON/OFF light will turn on.
5. Press the program button to select your desired
wash cycle, then close the door, the dishwasher
will start after 10 seconds.
The display window shows the state of the
dishwasher:
a) LED shows '-:--' -- Stand by
b) LED shows 'H:MM' and not blinking--Being paused
c) LED shows 'H:MM' and blinking--Running

Page 16

If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be
refilled (see the section entitled "Adding
Detergent").
2. Open the door, press the PROG. button more than
three seconds to cancel the program, then you can
change the program to the desired cycle setting.
Then, close the door.
NOTE:
If you open the door during a wash cycle, the machine
will pause. The LED Display Window will stop blinking
and the buzzer will sound every minute unless you
close the door. After you close the door, the
dishwasher will continue working after 10 seconds.
If display window shows error codes after a warning
sound (see page 21 for “ERROR CODES"), that
indicates the machine is out of order, please turn off
the main power and water supply before calling for
service.

PRIOR TO USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to
prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes,
which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves
drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your
dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. The
rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to
the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the
cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the
level indicator turns completely black. The volume of
the rinse aid container is about 140ml.

How to fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open"
(left) arrow and lift it out.
2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful
not to overfill.
3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with
"open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right)
arrow.

1

2

Function of the Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse,
ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free
drying.
WARNING!

3

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill
the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances
(e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent).
This would damage the appliance.
When to refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control
panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the
color of the optical level indicator "C” located next to
the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole
indicator will be dark. As the rinse-aid diminishes, the
size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let
the rinse aid get below 1/4 full.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this
could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills with a
damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before
you close dishwasher door.
ATTENTION! Clean up any rinse aid split during filling
with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming
during the next wash.

Using Your Dishwasher
Adjusting the Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has four scales. Always start
with the dispenser set on "3". If spots and poor drying
are a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid
dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating
the dial to "4". The recommended setting is "3".
(Factory value is "3".)
NOTE: Increase the dose if there are drops of water or
lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if
there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a
bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
Adjust lever
(Rinse)

Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents:
1. With phosphate and with chlorine
2. With phosphate and without chlorine
3. Without phosphate and without chlorine
Normally new pulverised detergent is without
phosphate. Thus the water softener function of
phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to
fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of
water is only 6 °dH. If detergents without phosphate
are used in the case of hard water often white spots
appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add
more detergent to reach better results. Detergents
without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and
coloured spots will not be removed completely. In this
case please choose a program with a higher
temperature.

Wash Cycle Table

Detergent Tablets

NOTE: Star (

Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at
different speeds. For this reason some detergent
tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning
power during short programs. Therefore please use
long programs when using detergent tablets, to
ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.

Ÿ Conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic
components
Ÿ Low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural
enzymes

) means the need to fill rinse into the Rinse Aid Dispenser.

Program

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each
wash cycle following the instructions provided in the
wash cycle table. Your dishwasher uses less
detergent and rinse aid than Conventional
dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of
detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More
heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add
the detergent just before starting the dishwasher,
otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve
properly.

Adjusting the Upper Basket
The upper rack is for more delicate and lighter
dishware such as glasses, coffee & tea cups, saucers,
plates, bowls, and shallow pans (provided these are
not too dirty).
Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not
get moved by the spray of water. Always place
glasses, cups & bowls upside down.
Shelf

Using Your Dishwasher
The upper basket height is adjustable. There is a
higher and lower position for the upper basket which
is used to wash dishes with different heights. You can
lift the basket or press the adjustor to the upper and
lower position.
Long items, serving cutlery, salad servers or knives
should be placed on the shelf so that they do not
obstruct the rotation of the spray arms. The shelf can
be rotated and lifted according to dishes. When not
required, the shelf can be folded back at the lower
height.
To adjust the height, grip the shelf on the side edges
and lift it to the higher position, then rotate to the
desired position.

Loading the Lower Basket

Cutlery Basket

We recommend that you place large items which are
most difficult to clean into the lower basket: pots,
pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the
figure below.

Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery basket with the
handles at the bottom. If the rack has side baskets, the
spoons should be loaded separately into the appropriate
slots, especially long utensils should be placed in the
horizontal position at the front of the upper basket as
shown in the picture.

It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the
side of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation
of the top spray arm.
Ÿ Pots, serving bowls, etc. must always be placed
top down.
Ÿ Deep pots should be slanted to allow water to flow
out.
Ÿ The bottom basket features folding spikes so that
larger or more pots and pans can be loaded.
