of a progressive number is "Fig. 4-01", where the first
number (4) indicates the section to which the figure
belongs, while the second number (01) indicates the
progressive number of the figure in section 4 (Fig. 4-01 is
the first figure in section 4). The tables are numbered in
the same way, bearing in mind that "Tab." is used instead
of "Fig." (e.g.: Tab. 4-01 is the first table in section 4). If a
table occupies more than one page, a letter is added
after the progressive number (e.g.: "Tab. 4-01a", Tab. 4-

5 INSTALLATION AND HOOK-UP
During installation, take care not to injure yourself on the
sharp edges of the appliance.
Remove the polystyrene rack blocks. Position the
appliance in the chosen installation position. The sides
and rear of the appliance can lie against kitchen units or
walls. If the dishwasher is installed next to a heat source,
separate it with a heat insulating panel in order to
prevent overheating and malfunctions. To assure stability,
only install built-in appliances under continuous
worktops, securing them to the adjacent kitchen units or
worktop with screws.
Building-in a dishwasher underneath a ceramic hob is
absolutely forbidden. A dishwasher can be built-in
underneath a conventional hob provided there is no
break in the kitchen worktop, and the dishwasher and
hob are installed and secured correctly, so that no
hazards are generated.
Make sure the dishwasher has been correctly
installed and grounded by a qualified fitter.
This safety requirement must be met. In case of
doubt, call in a qualified fitter. The manufacturer
declines all responsibility for damage to persons or
property resulting from the failure to ground the
appliance or from a defective ground connection.
Before proceeding with installation, disconnect the
main power supply from the work area.

Mount the door panel.
Place the template on the inner surface of the panel,
centering it along the upper side and matching up the
reference locators (ref. A fig. 5-19); mark the position of
the door hooks with a pencil (see fig. 5-19). Remove the
template and use a drill with a suitable bit to make holes
at the points marked on the panel.

Use the screwdriver to secure the door hooks with the 8
supplied screws (see fig. 5-20) at the marked reference
points.
Fig. 5-20
Drill holes for the panel handle using a drill with a
suitable bit. Use the screwdriver to secure the door
handle before hooking the panel to the dishwasher (see
fig. 5-21).
N.B.: the screws are not supplied.
Fig. 5-21
Attach the door panel: fit the hooks into their slots on the
dishwasher and allow the panel to slide downwards and
slip in to place (see fig. 5-22).
Fig. 5-22
Secure the door to the panel with the supplied screws.
The panel must have a minimum thickness of 20 mm (25/
32") (see fig. 5-23).
Fig. 5-23
Make sure the dishwasher door, complete with panel,
opens comfortably and that the base plate (ref. A fig. 5-
24) does not prevent it from opening fully. If the base plate
prevents the door from opening, mark out the section to
remove (see fig. 5-24), take out the base plate and cut it
along the marking using a compass saw (see fig. 5-25).

USER INSTRUCTIONS
4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before starting to use the appliance, make sure you have
read and understood all the warnings contained in
chapter 2 "important safety instruction".
Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed,
prepare for use as follows:
adjust the water softening system;
add the regenerating salt;
add the rinse-aid and detergent.
4.1 Using the rinse-aid and detergent
dispensers
The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are situated on
the inner part of the door: the detergent dispenser (ref.
A fig. 4-01) is on the left, and the rinse aid dispenser
(ref. B fig. 4-01) is on the right.
Fig. 4-01
With the exception of the soak program, before every
washing cycle it is necessary to add the required amount
of detergent to the detergent dispenser. The rinse aid, on
the other hand, should only be added as required.
4.1.1 Adding the rinse-aid
The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the
formation of scale deposits and staining; it is automatically
added to the water during the final rinse cycle, from the
container situated on the inner side of the door.
Fig. 4-02
To add rinse aid:
Open the door.
Rotate the container cover (ref. A fig. 4-02)
anticlockwise by ¼ of a turn and remove it.
Add the rinse aid until the container is full
(approximately 140 ml). The optical level indicator (ref.
B fig. 4-02), on the side of the cap should be
completely obscured. Refill the rinse aid when the
optical level indicator becomes clear again, or when
the rinse aid warning light illuminates (see "Description
of controls" manual).
Replace the cover (ref. A fig. 4-02) by turning it in a
clockwise direction until it is fully closed.
Use a cloth to remove any spillage of rinse aid which
might lead to the formation of excess foam.
4.1.2 Adjusting the rinse-aid dispenser
setting
The rinse-aid dispenser can be set to one of 6 different
levels. The dishwasher is factory set for medium water
hardness (selector set to "3"). To change the setting, turn
the dispenser selector (ref. c fig. 4-02) to the desired
position: the amount of rinse-aid dispensed is proportional
to the position of this selector.
Make sure that the minimum amount of rinse-aid (selector
turned to "1") is approximately 1 ml and the maximum
amount (selector turned to "6") is approximately 6 ml.
To adjust the rinse aid setting, rotate the dispenser
cover (ref. A fig. 4-02) through a quarter turn in an
anticlockwise direction and remove it.
Then use a screwdriver to rotate the rinse aid selector
to the desired position.
EN
17
Replace the cover (ref. A fig. 4-02) by turning it in a
clockwise direction until it is fully closed.
The amount of rinse aid must be increased if the
washed dishes appear dull or feature circular stains.
If, on the other hand, the dishes are sticky or have white
streaks, it is necessary to reduce the rinse aid setting.
4.1.3 Adding the detergent
Do not inhale or swallow detergent as this may cause
burns and/or permanent damage to the nose, mouth and
throat, and even leading to suffocation; keep detergent
away from your eyes. If one of the above situations
occurs, seek medical assistance immediately.
Prevent children from coming into contact with
detergent; keep them away from the dishwasher when
the door is open as it may contain detergent residues.
Fill the dishwasher just before starting the washing cycle
and then keep the detergent out of the reach of children.
To open the detergent dispenser cover, lightly press the
relative button (ref. A fig. 4-03). Add the detergent and
close the cover carefully, pushing down on the arrow (ref.
B fig. 4-03). During the washing cycle, the dispenser will
be opened automatically.
Fig. 4-03
Fig. 4-04
When a program with hot prewash is selected (see
program table in the "Description of Controls" manual),
extra detergent must be placed in the cavity (ref. A or
B fig. 4-04, depending on models).
Only use dishwasher-specific detergents. For optimal
washing results it is important to use a good quality
detergent.
The detergent packs must be sealed and stored in a
dry place to prevent the formation of lumps which may
negatively affect washing results. Once opened the
detergent packs should not be kept for too long,
otherwise the detergent loses its effectiveness.
Do not use detergents formulated for washing dishes
by hand, because they produce a great deal of foam
and may negatively affect the operation of the
dishwasher.
Add the correct amount of detergent. An insufficient
amount of detergent will result in a partial removal of
dirt from the dishes, whereas an excessive amount is
wasteful and does not improve the washing results.
The market offers liquid and powder detergents with
differing chemical compositions, which may contain
phosphates, or be phosphate-free but contain
natural enzymes.
Detergents containing phosphates are more effective
against grease and starch at temperatures above
60°C (140°F).
Enzyme detergents, on the other hand, are also
effective at lower temperatures (from 40 to 55°C /
from 104 to 131°F) and are more easily
biodegradable. With enzyme detergents it is possible
to obtain at low temperatures comparable results to
those which can only be achieved at 65°C (149°F)
using traditional detergents. For the safeguarding of
the environment we recommend the use of
phosphate- and chlorine-free detergents.
When using detergent tabs, place them in the cutlery
basket. The dispenser has been designed for powder or
liquid detergent. As the cover does not open completely
during the washing cycle, tabs are not fully released
(dissolved). This could generate the following problems:
- insufficient detergent released during the cycle and
poor washing results;
- the detergent is compacted in the dispenser and is
released during the final rinse cycle.
The introduction of detergent into the rinse aid dispenser,
even in liquid form, will damage the dishwasher.
4.2 General warnings and
recommendations
Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is
advisable to read the following recommendations
concerning dish types to be washed and their loading.
18
EN
There are generally no constraints on the washing of
domestic dishes, but in certain cases it is necessary to
take their characteristics into account. Before loading the
dishes into the racks it is necessary to:
remove coarse food remains: e.g. bones, fish-bones,
etc. which may clog the filter or damage the wash pump;
soak any pots or pans with burnt-on food remains on
the bottom to facilitate removal, then load them into
the LOWER RACK.
Use the "½ load wash" option (if available) for washing
small amounts of dishes; it saves water and electricity.
When using this function, only load the rack selected
for the ½ load wash; the other rack must remain empty.
There is no need to pre-wash the dishes under running
water before loading them into the racks since this only
wastes water. Correct loading of the dishes helps
ensure optimal washing results.
WARNING!
make sure that the dishes are securely in place so that
they cannot tip over or obstruct the rotation of the
spray arms during the washing cycle;
do not place very small objects in the racks as these
could fall and obstruct the spray arms or the wash pump;
containers such as cups, bowls, glasses and pots
should always be loaded with the opening facing
downwards and with any cavities at an angle, to allow
the water to drain out;
do not stack dishes or place them in such a way that
they cover one other;
do not place glasses too close together because they
may knock against each other and break, or there
might be staining at the point where they touch.
MAKE SURE that the items being washed are
dishwasher-safe.
Items which are not dishwasher-safe:
Wooden dishes, pots or pans: these may be
damaged by the high washing temperatures.
Handcrafted items: these are rarely suitable for
washing in a dishwasher. The relatively high water
temperatures and the detergents used may damage
them.
Lightweight objects: place lightweight objects in the
upper rack where the water pressure is lower.
Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass:
these tend to stain.
Aluminum dishes: items made from anodized
aluminum may lose their color.
Silverware: silver items may stain.
Glass and crystal: in general, glass and crystal
objects can be washed in the dishwasher. However,
certain types of glass and crystal may become dull
and lose their clearness after many washings.
Therefore, for these items we recommend using the
least aggressive program available (see "Description
of controls" manual).
Decorated items: the decorated objects available on
the market are generally able to withstand washing in
the dishwasher, although the colors may fade after a
great many washes. If in doubt as to the fastness of
the colors, it is advisable to wash just a few items at a
time for approximately one month.
4.3 Using the racks
The dishwasher has a capacity of 12 place-settings,
including serving dishes.
Examples of loading 12 place-settings in the upper rack
(see fig. 4-05) and in the lower rack (see fig. 4-06) are
shown below.
Fig. 4-05
Fig. 4-06
4.3.1 Lower rack
The lower rack receives the full force of the lower spray
arm, and should therefore be used for the "toughest" items
with a heavier degree of soiling. All types and combinations
of loads are permitted, provided that the dishes, pots and
pans are arranged with all the soiled surfaces exposed to
the water jets coming from the bottom. To make the most of
the space inside the rack when loading large items, certain
models are equipped with tip-up supports for plates in 2 or
4 sections (see fig. 4-07).
EN
19
With fixed supports With tip-up supports
Fig. 4-07
Loading the lower rack (see fig. 4-8)
Carefully load fl at plates, soup plates, dessert and
serving dishes, positioning them vertically. Pots, pans
and their covers must be loaded upside down.
When loading soup plates and dessert bowls, be sure to
leave a gap between them.
Loading examples:
1/2 load (certain models only)
Fig. 4-8
4.3.2 Cutlery basket (see fig. 4-9/4-10
depending on models)
The cutlery basket can be removed to simplify unloading.
Arrange the cutlery in an orderly manner inside the
basket, with the handles pointing downwards and
taking care not to injure yourself with the knife blades.
The basket is suitable for all types of cutlery, except those
long enough to interfere with the upper spray arm.
Place long items (ladles, wooden spoons and cooking
knives) that may interfere with the spray arm in the upper
rack making sure that knife tips do not protrude.
The dishwasher is complete with two cutlery baskets,
which means that one of them can be removed, freeing
space in the bottom rack, if there is not much cutlery to
be washed, or if a ½ load program is being used (on
models with this function).
The baskets feature an exclusive system of independent
sliding tip-up supports, offering a choice of combinations
to allow optimum use of the space available.

The cutlery supports and central lid are in the bag of
accessories. The central lid (ref. A fig. 4-10) is intended
to act only as a cover; do not place the cutlery in it.
Fig. 4-10
4.3.3 Upper rack (see fig. 4-11)
It is recommended to load the upper rack with small- or
medium-sized items such as glasses, small plates, tea or
coffee cups, shallow bowls and light objects made from
heat resistant plastic.
If the upper rack is used in the lowermost position, it can
also be loaded with serving dishes, provided they are
only slightly soiled. The top rack is fitted, on the left, with
two plastic racks which can be raised to make room for
tall glasses, such as stem glasses.
Fig. 4-11
20
EN
Loading the upper rack (see fig. 4-12)
Load plates facing forward; cups, bowls etc. must
always be facing downwards. The left-hand side of the
rack can be loaded with two layers of cups and glasses.
The centre can be filled with plates and side-plates,
fitted upright into the supports provided.
Fig. 4-12
Adjusting the upper rack
Version A (see fig. 4-13): the upper rack can be adjusted
in two positions, according to the user's needs and
according to the height of the dishes in the lower rack.
Proceed as follows:
pull out the right-hand rack guide. Remove the stop
(ref. A fig. 4-13) after releasing the tabs (ref. B fig. 4-13)
(first release the upper tab and then the lower one);
pull out the left-hand rack guide and remove the
corresponding stop, just as you did for the right-hand
rack guide;
remove the rack from the guides;
fit the upper or lower pair of wheels (ref. C fig. 4-13)
into the guides, depending on the setting required;
return the guide stops to their original positions (ref. d fig.
4-13) (first attach the lower tab and then the upper one).
Fig. 4-13
Version B (see fig. 4-14):
pull out the rack to its limit position and pull the right
side upwards (ref. A fig. 4-14). At this point it is possible
to load larger sized plates into the lower rack.
to return to the original position, pull out the upper rack
again and press the release lever (ref. B fig. 4-14).
Fig. 4-14
Version C (see fig. 4-15): the upper rack can be set in
three different positions on both sides. The rack must be
level on both sides.
To raise the rack (ref. A fig. 4-15), lift it with the two
handles (e.g.: ref. B fig. 4-15) to the first or second catch
depending on the height required. To lower it (ref. C fig.
4-15), pull up the two release levers (e.g.: ref. D fig. 4-
15). This is also possible with the rack loaded, but in this
case when lowering the rack it should be held steady
with one hand to avoid knocking the dishes.
