FIRST TIME USE
SALT, RINSE AID AND DETERGENT
ADVICE REGARDING THE FIRST TIME USE
After installation, remove the stoppers from the racks and the retaining
elastic elements from the upper rack.
FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes and
on the machine’s functional components.
• It is mandatory that THE SALT RESERVOIR BE NEVER EMPTY.
• It is important to set the water hardness.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher
(see PRODUCT DESCRIPTION) and must be lled when the SALT REFILL
indicator light in the control panel is lit .
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the
reservoir cap (anticlockwise).
2. Only the rst time you do this: ll the salt
reservoir with water.
3. Position the funnel (see gure) and ll the salt
reservoir right up to its edge (approximately
1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak
out.
4. Remove the funnel and wipe any salt residue
away from the opening.
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can get
into the container during the wash program (this could damage the
water softener beyond repair).
Whenever you need to add salt, it is mandatory to complete the pro-
cedure before the beginning of the washing cycle to avoid corrosion.
SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS
To allow the water softener to work in a perfect way, it is essential that
the water hardness setting is based on the actual water hardness in
your house. This information can be obtained from your local water
supplier. The factory sets the default value for the water hardness
• Switch on the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• Switch o the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• Hold down button START/Pause for 5 seconds, until you hear a beep.
• Switch on the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
• The current selection level number and the salt indicator light both
ash.
• Press button P to select the desired hardness level (see WATER
HARDNESS TABLE).
• Switch o the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF button.
Setting is complete!
As soon as this procedure is complete, run a program without loading.
Only use salt that has been specically designed for dishwashers.
After the salt has been poured into the machine, the SALT REFILL indi-
cator light switches o.
If the salt container is not lled, the water softener and the heating
element may be damaged as a result of limescale accumulation.
Using of Salt is recommended with any type of dishwasher detergent.

FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER
Rinse aid makes dish DRYING easier. The rinse aid dispenser A should be
lled when the RINSE AID REFILL indicator light in the control panel
is lit.
1. Open the dispenser B by pressing and pulling up the tab on the lid.
2. Pour in the rinse aid (max.110 ml), making sure it does not overow
from the dispenser. If this happens, clean the spill immediately with
a dry cloth.
3. Press the lid down until you hear a click to close it.
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.
ADJUSTING THE DOSAGE OF RINSE AID
If you are not completely satised with the drying results, you can ad-
just the quantity of rinse aid used.
• Switch the dishwasher on using the ON/OFF button.
• Switch it o using the ON/OFF button.
• Press button START/Pause three times - a beep will be heard.
• Switch it on using the ON/OFF button.
• The current selection level number and rinse aid indicator light ash.
• Press button P to select the level of rinse aid quantity to be supplied.
• Switch it o using the ON/OFF button
Setting is complete!
If the rinse aid level is set to 1 (ECO), no rinse aid will be supplied.
The LOW RINSE AID indicator light will not be lit if you run out of rinse aid.
A maximum of 5 levels can be set according to the dishwasher model.
The factory setting is specic to the model, please follow instruction
above to check this for your machine.
• If you see bluish streaks on the dishes, set a low number (2-3).
• If there are drops of water or limescale marks on the dishes, set a
mid-range number (4-5).
FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER
To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device C.
Introduce the detergent into the dry dispenser D only. Place the
amount of detergent for pre-washing directly inside the tub.
1. When measuring out the detergent
refer to the mentioned earlier infor-
mation to add the proper quantity.
Inside the dispenser D there are indi-
cations to help the detergent dosing.
2. Remove detergent residues from
the edges of the dispenser and clo-
se the cover until it clicks.
3. Close the lid of the detergent
dispenser by pulling it up until the
closing device is secured in place.
The detergent dispenser automatically opens up at the right time
according to the program.
If all-in-one detergents are used, we recommend using the TABLET
button, because it adjusts the program so that the best washing and
drying results are always achieved.
Usage of detergent not designed for dishwashers may cause mal-
function or damage to the appliance.

LOADING THE RACKS
UPPER RACK
Load delicate and light dishes:
glasses, cups, saucers, low salad
bowls.
(loading example for the upper
rack)
ADJUSTING THE HEIGHT OF THE UPPER RACK
The height of the upper rack can be adjusted: high position to place bulky
crockery in the lower basket and low position to make the most of the
tip-up supports by creating more space upwards and avoid collision with
the items loaded into lower rack.
The upper rack is equipped with a Upper Rack
height adjuster (see gure), without pressing
the levers, lift it up by simply holding the rack
sides, as soon as the rack is stable in its upper
position. To restore to the lower position, press
the levers A at the sides of the rack and move the
basket downwards.
We strongly recommend that you do not ad-
just the height of the rack when it is loaded.
NEVER raise or lower the basket on one side
only.
FOLDABLE FLAPS WITH ADJUSTABLE POSITION
The side foldable aps can be fold or
unfold to optimize the arrangement
of crockery inside the rack.
Wine glasses can be placed safely
in the foldable aps by inserting
the stem of each glass into the
corresponding slots.
Depending on the model:
– to unfold the aps there is
needed to slide it up and rotate
or release it from the snaps and
pull it down.
– to fold the aps there is needed to rotate it and slide aps down or
pull it up and attach aps to the snaps.
SLIDING TRAY
The upper rack is tted with a sliding tray
which can be used to hold
small crockery
and cutlery. For optimum washing performance, avoid
positioning bulky crockery directly below the tray. The tray is removable.
LOWER RACK
For pots, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Large plates and lids should
ideally be placed at the sides to avoid interferences with the spray arm.
The lower rack has tip-up supports which can be used in a vertical po-
sition when arranging plates or in a horizontal position (lower) to load
pans and salad bowls easily.
(loading example for the lower rack)
CUTLERY BASKET
The basket is equipped with top grilles
for improved cutlery arrangement.
The cutlery basket should be positioned
only at the front of the lower rack.
Knives and other utensils with sharp
edges must be placed in the cutlery
basket with the points facing down-
wards or they must be positioned
horizontally in the tip-up compart-
ments on the upper rack.
ZONE WASH 3D
Zone Wash 3D uses additional water jets
located both: in the lower and upper part
of the dishwasher (marked with orange color)
to wash more intensively heavily soiled items
by increasing water coverage on dishes.
Example: Load pots and casseroles facing
lower part of Zone Wash 3D components
and activate the Zone Wash 3D option
on the panel.

ADVICE AND TIPS
TIPS
Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the crockery
and empty the glasses. You do not need to rinse beforehand under
running water.
Arrange the crockery so that it is held in place rmly and does not tip
over; and arrange the containers with the openings facing downwards
and the concave/convex parts placed obliquely, thus allowing the
water to reach every surface and ow freely.
Warning: lids, handles, trays and frying pans do not prevent the spray-
er arms from rotating.
Place any small items in the cutlery basket.
Very soiled dishes and pans should be placed in the lower basket
because in this sector the water sprays are stronger and allow a higher
washing performance.
After loading the appliance, make sure that the sprayer arms can
rotate freely.
UNSUITABLE CROCKERY
• Wooden crockery and cutlery.
• Delicate decorated glasses, artistic handicraft and antique crockery.
Their decorations are not resistant.
• Parts in synthetic material which do not withstand high tempera-
tures.
• Copper and tin crockery.
• Crockery soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.
The colours of glass decorations and aluminium/silver pieces can
change and fade during the washing process. Some types of glass (e.g.
crystal objects) can become opaque after a number of wash cycles
too.
DAMAGE TO GLASS AND CROCKERY
• Only use glasses and porcelain guaranteed by the manufacturer as
dishwasher safe.
• Use a delicate detergent suitable for crockery
• Collect glasses and cutlery from the dishwasher as soon as the wash
cycle is over.
TIPS ON ENERGY SAVING
• When the household dishwasher is used according to the manufac-
turer’s instructions, washing tableware in a dishwasher usually
consumes less energy and water than hand dishwashing.
• In order to maximize dishwasher eciency it is recommended to initiate
the wash cycle once dishwasher is fully loaded. Loading the
household dishwasher up to the capacity indicated by the manufacturer
will contribute to energy and water savings. Information on correct
loading of tableware can be found in LOADING THE RACKS chapter.
• In case of partial loading it is recommended to use dedicated wash
options if available (Half load/ Zone Wash, Multizone), illing up only
selected racks. Incorrect loading or overloading the dishwasher may
increase resources usage (such as water, energy and time, as well as
increase noise level), reducing cleaning and drying performance.
• Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items leads to increased water and
energy consumption and is not recommended.
HYGIENE
To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the
dishwasher please run a high temperature program at least one a
month. Use a tea spoon of detergent and run it without the loading to
clean your appliance.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE FILTER ASSEMBLY
Regularly clean the lter assembly so that the lters do not clog and
that the waste water ows away correctly.
Using dishwasher with clogged lters or foreign objects inside ltration
system or sprayarms may cause unit malfunction resulting in lose of
performance, noisy work or higher resources usage.
The lter assembly consists of three lters which remove food residues
from the washing water and then recirculate the water.
The dishwasher must not be used without lters or if the lter is
loose.
At least once per month or after each 30 cycles, check the lter assembly
and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-
-metallic brush and following the instructions below:
1. Turn the cylindrical lter A in an anti-clockwise direction and pull it
out (Fig 1).
2. Remove the cup lter B by exerting a slight pressure on the side
aps (Fig 2).
3. Slide out the stainless-steel plate lter C (Fig 3).
4. In case you nd foreign objects (such as broken glass, porcelain,
bones, fruit seeds etc.) please remove them carefully.
5. Inspect the trap and remove any food residues. NEVER REMOVE the
wash-cycle pump protection (black detail) (Fig 4).
After cleaning the lters, re-place the lter assembly and x it in
position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the ecient
operation of the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE WATER INLET HOSE
If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended
period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free
of impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this
precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and da-
mage the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS
On occasions, food residue may become encrusted onto the spray arms
and block the holes used to spray the water. It is therefore recommen-
ded that you check the arms from time to time and clean them with a
small non-metallic brush.
To remove the upper spray arm, turn the plastic locking ring in an
anti-clockwise direction. The upper spray arm should be replaced so
that the side with the greater number of holes is facing upwards.
The lower spray arm may be removed by pulling it upwards.
WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, consequently
preventing scale buildup on heater, contributing also to better cleaning
eciency.
This system regenerates itself with salt, therefore it is required to
rell salt container when empty.
Frequency of regeneration depends on water hardness level setting
- regeneration takes place once per 6 Eco cycles with water hardness
level set to 3.
Regeneration process starts in nal rinse and nishes in drying phase,
before cycle ends.
• Single regeneration consumes: ~3.5L of water;
• Takes up to 5 additional minutes for the cycle;
• Consumes below 0.005kWh of energy.
