HOW TO USE AND OPERATE
1. Loading your Dishwasher
3. Using the Cutlery Basket
For better washing performance, always load
the dishwasher according to the instructions.
Before loading items into the dishwasher
clean off large particles of food, in particular
insoluble items such as bones, pips, etc.
When loading the dishwasher, please act
accordingly:
■Position crockery such that water will
contact all surfaces.
■Deep based items should be placed at an
angle to help water run off and dry
properly.
■Items with burnt on food should be
soaked prior to loading in the dishwasher.Cutlery should be mixed within each
section of the cutlery basket to prevent
nesting of similar items. Place the cutlery in
the cover with the handles down. The cover
can be hinged and clipped away from the
basket if you choose not to use them.
Place knives in the separate rack for located
in the top of the dishwasher.
Take care when loading and unloading
sharp items.
Take care not to obstruct the rotation
of the spray arms and ensure that large
items do not prevent the detergent
dispenser lid from opening.

HOW TO USE AND OPERATE
4. Loading the Upper Rack
It is best to load this with more delicate
items such as, small plates, long cutlery,
cups, glasses and dishwasher safe plastic
items. Plates should be positioned upwards
with the plate bottom facing the front of the
rack. 
Cups, glasses and bowls must be positioned
upside down. 
Extra cups or cooking utensils can be laid
on the fold down cup racks, which also
provides support for long stem glasses. 
Take care not to obstruct the rotation of the
spray arm under the upper rack.

Non Dishwasher Safe Items
The combination of high water temperatures and
dishwasher detergent may damage particular
items, therefore we do not recommend using the
dishwasher to wash the following:
 Copper or anodized aluminum
 Hand painted silver or gold leaf crockery
 Wood or bone handled utensils 
 Iron or non rust proof utensils
 Plastic items that which are not dishwasher safe.
Your upper rack can be raised or lowered to
cater for different size of crockery. Before
adjusting, ensure rack is empty of 
all crockery. Remove the rail pegs in front
of the rack runners by pulling back, then
slide the rack out. Relnsert the rack in the
chosen position and replace the pegs.
Fitting the rack back into the standard
position reduces the space between the
upper and lower rack. After adjusting,
check that the spray arm is free to rotate.
5. Adjusting the Upper Rack
(Not on all models)
Before adjusting, ensure rack is
empty of all crockery.
Otherwise crockery may be
damaged or you may be injured.

6. Adding Detergent
Dispenser
• Detergent must be put into the detergent
chamber before starting every program
except the Pre-Wash.
• Please follow the manufacturer’s instructions
within the manual, when determining the
correct amount of detergent to use.
• If your dishes are moderately dirty, you may
use slightly less detergent than
recommended.
• Chambers hold 15g and 25g.
• The amount of detergent required depends on
the program. Please refer to the guide table.
• After the detergent is supplied, the
chamber lid should be closed.
• The detergent is dispensed automatically
during the operation.
• The chamber lid remains open after
operation.
Detergent Information
Use only the detergent intended for
household dishwashers. (Ordinary hand-
washing detergent should not be used,
because the foam can interfere with proper
operation.)

HOW TO USE AND OPERATE
7. Adding Rinse Aid
Dispenser
�For filling
To fill the Rinse Aid chamber, rotate the round
cap counter clockwise and remove. Fill the
container to the maximum level with a good
quality Rinse Aid, then replace and lock the
cap.
The Rinse Aid is automatically dispensed
during the final rinse cycle.
The dosage is factory set to suit most
installations. If, after washing, you notice
cloudy spots, streaks or water marks on your
glassware, it may be necessary to increase the
setting. To do this, remove the cap and rotate
the indicator arrow to a higher setting then
replace the cap . If the glasses are smeared or
foam is present on the bottom of the glass or
the bottom of the machine, select a lower
setting.
�For refilling
Depending on the dosage setting and the
number of washes, the chamber may need to be
topped up, approximately once a month. The
rinse aid level can be checked by two methods.
•  By the indicator window on the dispenser
when the dishwasher door is fully open.
Black indicates sufficient Rinse Aid
OClear indicates Rinse Aid required
•  By the light on the control panel, being lit,
when the dishwasher is working on.
Rinse Aid Information
Rinse Aid is necessary to remove spots and
streaks from dishes as well as improved
drying. Using the correct amount will
improve wash performance. However, using
too much can produce excess foam leading
to possible water leaks.
When the lamp is lit, it means the rinse aid
is almost empty. Refill the Rinse Aid
chamber as soon as possible.

8. Salt Filling
• Check the water hardness of your area. (Your water supplier will be able to tell you this.)
• Set the water hardness according to the setting method of the water softener.
• Remove lower rack and unscrew the cap of salt container.
• Before using your dishwasher for the first time, fill with salt, the container has a capacity of 1.2kg.
Use a funnel for ease and clean filling, ensuring that coarse salt or regenerating salt intended for
dishwashers is used.
• After filling, wipe off any spilled salt to seal the cap properly.
• Screw the cap tightly to prevent any suds from penetrating into the container.
In order to provide satisfactory rinsing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e.,containing little
or no lime, otherwise water stains will be left behind on the dishes and interior containers.
If the tap water exceeds a certain level of hardness, it must be softened, i.e.,decalcified. 
This is achieved by adding a special salt to the water softener inside the dishwasher.
The required amount of salt is set up according to how hard your tap water is.
This model has a water softener to soften hard water.
Please read these notes carefully for correct operation.
�Filling with Salt for the first time
1. Unscrew the cap from the salt container.
2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see Figure to the side), if necessary, rotate the
ring in the anticlockwise direction from the - Setting.
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 schema:
Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply. �Setting up the water softening system

HOW TO USE AND OPERATE
When the salt container is empty, the salt refill lamp will automatically turn on during operation.
The salt should be refilled after the cycle has finished. We recommended the salt refill should
always be carried out, as mentioned previous page, prior to starting the next operation. This will
immediately thin and drain away any excess salt solution. ■For refilling
