precautions listed below: 
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
 This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of anelectric shock by providing a path of
least resistance of electric current. This appliance
is equipped with a cord having an equipment-
grounding conductor and a grounding plug. 
 The plug must be plugged into an appropriate
outlet that is installed and grounded in
accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding
conductor can result in the risk of an electric shock.

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
A.Set the water softener.
B.Pour 1/2 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt.
C.Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
D.Fill in detergent.
A. Water Softener
The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial.
The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would have a
detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals
and salts, the harder your water is. 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.
Adjusting Salt Consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjustment in the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness
of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level o f salt consumption.
Please follow the steps below for adjustment in salt consumption.
1.Unscrew the cap from the salt container.
2.There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure on 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 scheme:
Note 1
°dH = 1.25
°Clarke = 1.78
°fH = 0.178mmol/l
°dH = German degree
°fH = French degree
°Clarke = British degree
Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.Note 2
/ = No salt need added
– = Setting toward the- sign
+ = Setting toward the+ sign

B. Loading the Salt Into the Softener
Always use the salt intended for use with dishwasher.
The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as explained in the following:
Attention
 Only use salt specifically designed for the use in dishwashers! Every other type of salt not specifically
designed for the use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of
damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable
for any damages caused.
 Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs.
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.
A.Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container (1).
B.Before the first wash, fill 1lt. of water in the salt container of your machine.
C.Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1kg of salt.
It is normal for a small amount of water to come out It is of the salt container. (2).
D.After filling the container, screw the cap tightly back clockwise.
E.Usually, the salt warning light will stop being illuminated within 2-6 days after the salt container has
been filled with salt.
F.Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (We
suggest to use the soak or rapid program). Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts
of the machine may be damaged by salty water. This is out of warranty.
Note:
1.The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.
Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt
container is filled.
If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some Models),you can estimate when to fill the
salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.
2.If there are spills of the salt, a soak or a rapid program should be run to remove the excessive salt.

C. Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes,
which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your
dishwasher is 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 volume of the rinse aid container is about 110 ml.
Function of Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free
drying.
Attention!
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances
(e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can estimate the amount from the colour of
the optical level indicator Clocated next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole
indicator will be dark .As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let
the rinse aid level fall 1 / 4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated
below.

1.To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the open (left) arrow
and lift it out.
2.Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.
3.Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with open arrow and
turning it to the closed (right) arrow.
NOTE
Clean up any rinse aid spilled while during filling with an absorbent
cloth to avoid excessive foaming during the next wash. Dont forget
to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.
Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with
the dispenser set on 4. If spots and poor drying are a problem,
increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the
dispenser lid and rotating the dial to 5. If the dishes still are not
drying properly or are show spots, adjust the dial to the next higher
lever until your dishes are spot-free. The recommended setting is
4. (Factory value is 4.)
NOTE
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the
dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish
film on glassware or knife blades.

D. Function of Detergent
Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of
the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1. With phosphate and with chlorine
2. With phosphate and without chlorine
3. Without phosphate and without chlorine
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of phosphate
is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of water is
only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water often white spots appear on
dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without
chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not be removed completely. In this case
please choose a program with a higher temperature.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
 conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
 low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
The use of normal washing programs in combination with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and
is good for your dishes; these wash programs are specifically matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of
the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason normal wash programs in which concentrated
detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using intensive
programs.
Detergent Tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets
cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programs. Therefore please use long
programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in
the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than Conventional dishwasher.
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 the dishwasher, otherwise it could get
damp and will not dissolve properly.
Amount of Detergent to Use
Push latch to open
 
						

							12
NOTE:
 If the lid is closed: press release button. The lid will spring open.
 Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle.
 Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children.
Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for the use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
Dont put powdered detergent into the dispenser until youre ready to wash dishes.
Fill in Detergent
Fill the detergent dispenser with detergent. The marking
indicates the dosing levels, as illustrated on the right:
A.The place of main wash cycle detergent placed, “MIN”
means approximately 20 g of detergent.
B.The place of pre-wash cycle detergent placed,
approximately 5 g of detergent
Please observe the manufacturers dosing and storage
Recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging.
Close the lid and press until it locks in place.
If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an additional detergent
dose in the pre-wash detergent chamber. This detergent will
take effect during the pre-wash phase.
NOTE:
 You find information about the amount of detergent for the single programme on the last page.
 Please aware, that according to the level soiling and the specific hardness of water differences are
possible.
 Please observe the manufacturers recommendations on the detergent packaging.

How To Use The 3IN1 Function
Your dishwasher has a 3in1 function which needs no salt and rinse aid but a 3In1 tablet.
This dishwasher comes with a 3in1 tablet container as an accessory.
NOTE
Only the 3in1 function (for the program: intensive/Normal/Eco.) Can be used with 3in1 tablets.
If you use 3in1 tablets in other programs, the appliance will not achieve a good performance.
1.The figure below shows how to hang the 3in1 tablet
container on the upper basket.
2.Rotate the upper sprayer and change the location of the
container to ensure the upper sprayer is not obstructed
by the 3in1 tablet container. Refer to the figure below for
reference.
3.Put the 3in1 tablet into the container, then start the 3in1
program.
NOTE
When using 3in1 combination / compact Detergents ,please pay attention to make sure that the size of the
combination detergents fits to the dispenser so that combination detergents can be easily put into the
dispenser, and the dispenser would not be broken.
