Before use Before using your dishwasher for the first time: 1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions 2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance 3. Set the water softener 4. Pour half a litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with salt 5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.

The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million). The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area. The dishwasher is factory set at level 2. If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted. You may change the factory level setting by means of the wash programme selector push buttons. each push button corresponds to a different level. If your water hardness is below level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt. In this case adjust the water softener on level 1 without using salt. The salt indicator light on the control panel will always remain off. Level 1 = "Rinse and hold" push button Level 2 = "Intensive 70°"push button Level 3 = "Normal 65°"push button 70° 65° To select a different level proceed as follows: 1. Press the "Normal 65°" and "Quick 55°" programme push buttons simultaneously until you hear the audible signal of "instruction accepted". The pilot light corresponding to the current level flashes. 2. Press the programme push button corresponding to the required level. 3. 5 seconds after the last pressure of a push button, the dishwasher will memorise the new level setting and will return to programme setting mode. Level 4 = "Bio 50°"push button Level 5 = "Quick 55°"push button BIO 50° 55° 70° 65° BIO 50° 55° SO207 5 Filling with salt Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion. To fill: 1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container. 2. Pour half a litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time). 3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is full. Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal. 4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket. 5. Screw on the cap tightly. The salt container will require topping up periodically. You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which comes on when the salt has finished. LE SA LT SA LZ SA L SE SR02 The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer. The function of the machine is not affected. 6 Rinse aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage setting. Filling with rinse aid 1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise. 2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The indicator (B) will be completely dark. 3. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear. Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill. Do not put liquid detergent in the rinse aid compartment. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash. BR01 A B m a x 6543 21 Adjusting the dose According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (C) (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage). Start from position 3. Gradually increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes. BR03 C x m a 6543 21 BR02 7 Using your appliance Loading your appliance Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing the performance. Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets. Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes. UI57 The lower basket The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can turn freely. UI12 The cutlery basket Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard. Long and/or sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives. Cutlery should be placed in the removable cutlery basket with the handles facing downwards. If the handles protrude from the bottom of the basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load the cutlery with the handles facing upwards. Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together. The cutlery basket can be placed either to the left or to the right of the lower basket. Arrange spoons, dessert spoons, knives and other small items of cutlery in the rack on the side of the cutlery basket. UI08 8 The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses. if dishes are loaded in the upper basket, tilt them forwards. Arrange items on and underneath the fold-down cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces. Light items (plastic bowls etc.) should be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move. When loading the dishes, ensure that you do not cover the water inlet funnel in the middle of the upper basket. US16 US20 Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely. US16 Adjusting the height of the upper basket If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position. To move to the higher position proceed as follows: 1. Move the front runner stops (A) of the upper basket outward and slide the basket out. 2. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops (A) in their original position ...
