This is not recommended for delicate items as the high temperature could make their surfaces opaque or their decorative colors lighten after repeated washings. Rapid Button This button (see " Control panel " ) when used with wash cycle 4 (glassware) makes it possible to run the wash cycle at a lower temperature (50 C) and eliminates the drying phase. WATER SOFTENER There are two ways to reduce the water hardness: one way is by using water softener, the other is by using detergent. Safety Instructions The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils. The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water. Loading the Salt into the Softener Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers. The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows: 1 Remove the lower basket and unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container. 2 If you are filling the container for the first time, fill 2/3 of its volume with water. end of the hole and introduce about 2kg 3 PlaceItthenormal the salt filter(supplied) into to come out of the salt container. of salt. is for a small amount of water 4 Carefully screw on the cap. Operating Instructions The salt container must be salt warning light comes NOTE: 1. the indicator light may not refilled when thethe salt fully dissolves. on. Though the salt container is filled, black out before 2. If there are spills of salt, a soak program could be run to clean the spills. Adjusting Salt Consumption The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption. 1 2 Unscrew the cap from the salt container. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see Figure to the side). If necessary, rotate the ring in the counterclockwise direction from the "-" s etting toward the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.It is recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following chart: Troubleshooting Tips WATER HARDNESS Selector Position Clarke Degrees 0~14 14~36 36~71 71 dH 0~10 18~44 45~89 89 mmol/l 0~1.7 1.8~4.4 4.5~8.9 8.9 / MED + Salt consumption (gram/cycle) Auto nomy (cycles/2kgs) 0 20 40 60 / 60 40 25 Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply. 4 DETERGENT DISPENSER The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle according to the instructions provided in the" Wash Cycle Table". Our dishwashers use less detergent and rinse aid than conventional dishwashers. 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 dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly. Safety Instructions Operating Instructions Troubleshooting Tips 5 Amount of Detergent to Use IF THE WATER ISN'T TOO HARD, YOU MAY ALSO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF DEPOSITS BY ADDING DETERGENT. The amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in water hardness. To determine the water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or area water softening company. The harder the water, the more detergent you may need. Remember, you should adjust the amount of detergent you use little by little until you find the correct amount. 2 34 5 6 SCALE 1.000 Removing Hard Water Spots From Dishes To remove hard water spots, try the following: Run dishes through a normal wash program. Remove all metal dishware, such as cutlery, pans, etc., from the dishwasher. Do not add detergent. Pour two cups of vinegar into a bowl and set the bowl face up on the lower rack of the dishwasher. Run the dishes through a normal wash program. If this doesn't work, try the same process with 1 / 4 cup of citric acid crystals instead of vinegar. 1 1 Main Wash Detergent 2 Dispenser Lid lever 3 Prewash Detergent Compartment 4 Rinse Aid Level Indicator 5 Rinse Aid Compartment 6 Detergent Compartment Lid WARNING! Proper Use of Detergent Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash dishes. Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of the reach of children. RINSE AID DISPENSER The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to "sheet" off the dishes. Our dishwashers are 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 dispenser holds about 100 ml of liquid rinse aid. 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 the dishwasher door. If you have soft water, you may not need rinse aid as it may cause a white film to develop on your dishes. SCALE 1.0 0 To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the "close" (right) arrow. Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser 32 54 A measured amount of rinse aid is released during the final rinse. As with detergent, the amount of rinse aid needed for your dishes depends on the hardness of the water in your area. Too much rinse aid can result in lather or foaming and can cause cloudiness or streaks on your dishes. If the water in your area is very soft, you may not need rinse aid. If you do, you can dilute the rinse aid with an equal amount of water. The rinse aid dispenser has six settings. Always start with the dispenser set on " 1 ". If spots and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "2". If the dishes still are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until your dishes are spot-free. We suggest the setting of "4". 6 When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser When the rinse aid dispenser is empty, the rinse aid warning light (on control panel) will illuminate, indicating the dispenser needs to be refilled. The black dot on the rinse aid dispenser indicated the amount of rinse aid in the dispenser. As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1/4 full. Loading the Dishwasher Racks For best performance, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model. How to use the Upper Rack The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cup and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and lightly soiled shallow pans. Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water. The upper rack can be adjusted for height by putting wheels of different height into the rails. 1 Safety Instructions Operating Instructions As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

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. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the paragraph entitled " Loading the Detergent " ). Press the ON/OFF button, and the ON light will turn off. Rotate the dial in the clockwise direction to the desired cycle setting (see the section entitled " Starting a wash cycle. . . " ). Then, turn the dishwasher back on using the ON/OFF button. Safety Instructions At the End of the Wash Cycle STOP STOP When the dial stops turning and is aligned with the STOP mark(see figure), the cycle has finished . Turn off the appliance using the ON/OFF button, shut off the water supply and open the door of the dishwasher. Wait a few minutes before unloading the dishwasher to avoid handling the dishes and utensils while they are still hot and more susceptible to breakage. STOP Forget to Add a Dish? A forgotten dish can be added any time before the detergent cup opens. 1 Pull the door handle. 2 Do not open the door until the water spray action stops. Steam may rise out of the dishwasher. 3 Add forgotten dishes. 4 Push the door to close . When the door is properly closed, a click will sound. Operating Instructions FILTERING SYSTEM For your convenience, we have placed the drain pump and filtering system within easy reach inside the tub. There are three components of the filtering system: the main filter, the coarse filter, and the fine filter. 1 Main filter Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down the drain. 1 2 3 2 Coarse filter Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze the tabs on top of this filter and lift it out. 3 Fine filter This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a cycle. CARING FOR THE DISHWASHER Troubleshooting Tips T clean the control panel use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior use a good o appliance polish wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher. Protect Against Freezing If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technician to: off electrical 1 Cut remove fusespower to the dishwasher and or trip circuit breaker. water supply and disconnect 2 Turn off thepipe from the water valve. the water inlet 4 Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve. the plastic sump cover 5 Removebottom and use a spongeintothe tub the soak up the water in rubber boot. 3 Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.) 8 Cleaning the Spray Arms It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly as hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings. To remove the spray arm, screw off the nut to take out the washer on top of the spray arm and remove the arm. Wash the arms in soapy, warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace after rinsing them thoroughly. Cleaning the Filters Filter assembly For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned. The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle. 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 assembly, pull on the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned at least once a month. To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the figure at left and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning in its seat and pressing downward. The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and may damage dishes and utensils. WARNING! Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. Cleaning the Door To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind. Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will scratch the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface. Cleaning the Drain Pump Something will occasionally move into the filters and the drain pump. If this occurs, the drain pumps employed in our dishwashers are designed to automatically reverse, ejecting the item back into the sump area or down the drain. If you have to remove an obstacle from the drain pump, before you remove the filters, you should turn off the power; Then remove the small black insert from the sump area. (You might want to remove any standing water first). Scoop out the item that is probably in the sump area and causing the obstruction. Remember to replace the black insert before replacing the filters. How to Keep Your Dishwasher Running Properly After Every Wash After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside. When You Go on Holiday When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then remove the plug from the socket, turn off the water supply and leave the door of the appliance slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming in the appliance. No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products To clean the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Use only a cloth and warm, soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with warm water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers. Seals One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring. 9 OVERFLOW CONDITIONS: Safety Instructions Troubleshooting Tips 10 The dishwasher is designed to detect/monitor water overflow conditions. The overflow tube is located in the lower (well) section of the inner door liner. This tube must be kept free and clear of obstructions and debris. In the event of an overflow condition, the water level rises above the height of the overflow tube and is directed into the overflow container. (located behind lower kick-plate) When the water level reaches a predetermined height, the float switch is activated closing power to the water inlet valve and automatically turns on the pump to evacuate the water inside the tub only. The accumulated water inside the float container must be discharged manually before the dishwasher can be re-started. To empty the float container, follow the instructions below. PORTABLE DISHWASHER (MODEL): · Disconnect the dishwasher from the electrical power supply. · Disconnect the hose assembly from the faucet (water) supply. · Keep the dishwasher upright at all times. · The overflow container (water plug) is located behind the lower kick-plate. (See Fig. 1) · Remove 4 screws from the underside of the kick-plate. · Pull the kick-plate toward you. This will require applying a little force. · Remove the black rubber "plug" located at the front bottom of the metal plate. (See Fig. 2) · Allow the water to drain into a cup/container. · Replace the rubber "plug", making sure it is secure. · Replace the lower kick-plate. (snap into position) · It is not necessary to replace the 4 kick-plate screws removed earlier. The dishwasher is now ready to be restarted. Fig.1 Plug Fig.2 Installation Instructions Operating Instructions How to Drain Excess Water If the sink is 34 inches or higher from the floor, the excess water in Unicouple hoses cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink.

INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES - VEUILLEZ LIRE TOUTES LES INSTRUCTIONS AVANT D'UTILISER VOTRE LAVE-VAISSELLE AVERTISSEMENT ! Vous devez respecter les précautions de base suivantes lorsque vous utilisez votre lave-vaisselle. Instructions de sécurité Instructions d'utilisation Conseils pour le dépannage 1 AVERTISSEMENT ! L'HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF Dans certaines conditions, de l'hydrogène peut se développer dans un circuit d'eau chaude qui n'est pas utilisé pendant deux semaines ou plus. L'HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF. Lorsque le circuit d'eau chaude n'a pas été utilisé depuis un certain temps, ouvrez tous les robinets d'eau chaude et laissez couler l'eau pendant plusieurs minutes avant de mettre le lave-vaisselle en marche. Toute accumulation d'hydrogène pourra ainsi être évacuée. Le gaz étant une matière inflammable, vous ne devez pas fumer ou utiliser une flamme nue au cours de cette opération. INSTRUCTIONS RELATIVES À LA MISE À LA TERRE Modèles à cordon d'alimentation Cet appareil doit être mis à la terre. En cas de mauvais fonctionnement ou de panne, la mise à la terre réduit les risques de choc électrique en fournissant un trajet de moindre résistance au courant électrique. Cet appareil est équipé d'un cordon d'alimentation avec conducteur de mise à la terre de l'équipement et une fiche de mise à la terre. Cette fiche doit être branchée dans une prise appropriée, installée conformément aux codes et règlements locaux. AVERTISSEMENT ! Un mauvais raccordement du cordon d'alimentation présente des risques de choc électrique. En cas de doute, vérifiez avec un électricien ou un technicien de service qualifié si l'appareil est bien mis à la terre. Ne pas modifier la fiche fournie avec le lavevaisselle. Si elle n'entre pas dans la prise, faites installer une nouvelle prise par un électricien qualifié. Câblage direct Cet appareil doit être branché à un système de câblage permanent en métal mis à la terre, ou un conducteur de mise à la terre de l'équipement doit être acheminé avec les conducteurs du circuit et branché à la borne de mise à la terre de l'équipement ou au conducteur de l'appareil. AVERTISSEMENT ! UTILISATION APPROPRIÉE Ne pas s'asseoir ou se tenir debout sur la porte ou les paniers du lave-vaisselle, et ne pas les manipuler brusquement. Ne pas toucher l'élément chauffant pendant ou immédiatement après son fonctionnement. Ne pas laver d'articles en plastique sauf s'ils portent la mention « Lavable au lave-vaisselle » ou une mention équivalente. S'il n'y a rien d'indiqué sur les articles en plastique, vérifiez les recommandations du fabricant. Utilisez uniquement des détergents et produits de rinçage conçus pour les lave-vaisselle automatiques. Ne pas utiliser des savons, des détergents à lessive ou des détergents pour le lavage des mains dans votre lave-vaisselle. Conservez ces produits hors de la portée des enfants. Conservez les détergents et les produits de rinçage hors de la portée des enfants. Conservez également les enfants à l'écart de la porte ouverte du lave-vaisselle car il se peut qu'il y ait toujours du détergent à l'intérieur. La porte ne doit pas être laissée en position ouverte car il y a danger de trébucher sur celle-ci. Lors de l'installation, veillez à ce que le câble d'alimentation ne soit pas excessivement tordu ou aplati, de façon à éviter tout danger. Pour éviter le risque de blessures, ne laissez aucun enfant jouer dans ou sur un lave-vaisselle. Ne pas faire fonctionner le lave-vaisselle lorsque tous les panneaux ne sont correctement mis en place. Si le lavevaisselle est en opération, usez de prudence pour ouvrir la porte. Il y a risque d'être aspergé par l'eau chaude. Ne pas placer des objets lourds sur le lave-vaisselle ou grimper sur la porte du lave-vaisselle lorsque celle-ci est ouverte. L'appareil peut basculer vers l'avant. Lorsque vous mettez des articles dans le lave-vaisselle : 1) Placez les articles tranchants de façon à ce qu'ils n'endommagent pas le joint d'étanchéité de la porte ; 2) Placez les couteaux pointe vers le bas pour éviter les blessures par coupure. Lorsque vous utilisez le lave-vaisselle, les articles en plastique ne doivent pas être en contact avec l'élément chauffant. Si le cordon d'alimentation est endommagé, il doit être remplacé par le fabricant ou un technicien de service ou une personne possédant des qualifications similaires pour éviter tout danger. Disposez des matériaux d'emballage de manière appropriée. Utilisez le lave-vaisselle uniquement pour la fonction pour laquelle il a été conçu. Enlevez la porte du compartiment de lavage lorsqu'un vieux lave-vaisselle ne sera plus utilisé ou lorsqu'il est mis au rebut. Ne pas tenter de modifier les boutons de commande.
