[. . . ] You MUST read it carefully before installing or using the appliance. Installation q Conservation In the interest of the environment: q q This appliance is heavy. It is dangerous to alter the specifications or attempt to modify this product in any way. Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician. [. . . ] 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. UI04 Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely. Adjusting the height of the upper basket If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 32 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 outwards and slide the basket out. Refit the basket in the higher position and replace the stops (A) in their original position. Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent them from sticking together. For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it). RC01 UI71 When the top basket is in the higher position it will only take plates up to 20 cm in diameter and you will not be able to use the cup racks. After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard. 7 Hints and tips To save energy Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing. Do not prewash dishes under running water. Select the Quick 50°C programme when dishes are not very soiled, following the instructions given in the "Washing programmes" chart. For best washing results Before loading, remove all scraps of food and soak very heavily soiled pots and pans. Arrange saucepans, cups and glasses etc. Tilt items with convex or concave surfaces so that the water drains off easily. Once cleaned, refit the filter by pushing it back to its original position until it engages. External cleaning Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc. . . . ). Prolonged periods of non-operation If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are advised to: 1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells. Leave the inside of the machine clean. A Frost precautions MA04 MA19 Cleaning the large filter (Every week) If necessary clean the large filter (B) on both sides under running water, using a brush. Remove the spray arm by pulling it upwards on one side. Turn the column (C) anticlockwise by 90° and then slide out the filter. Once cleaned refit it following the above instructions in reverse order. Ensure the filter is in its original position, the handle of the drain filter should be pointing towards the front of the appliance.

Moving the machine If you have to move the machine (moving house etc. . . . ): 1. [. . . ] If the machine is connected to new pipes or pipes which have not been used for a long time, you should run the water for a few minutes before connecting the inlet hose. This will prevent deposits of sand or rust clogging the inlet hose filter. For making the connection itself, the coupling nut fitted to the machine's supply hose is designed to screw onto either a 3/4 inch gas thread spout, or to a purpose made quick-coupling tap such as the Press-block. Do not use, for connection, old hoses which have been used in another appliance. 1 Ø 18 2 3 CS09 The waste connection must be at a height of between 30 cm (minimum) and 100 cm (maximum) from the bottom of the dishwasher.
