[. . . ] This user-friendly manual will provide answers to all your questions about use of the dishwasher. For any other information about use and maintenance of the dishwasher, read the enclosed manual carefully. USER INSTRUCTIONS: useful information is provided for the use of the washing programs and all the dishwasher's functions. User instructions 1. Description of the controls 1. 1 Upper panel All the dishwasher controls are grouped on the upper panel. procedures are only possible when the door is open. 1 ON/OFF BUTTON Pressing this button energises the appliance. [. . . ] ANY TECHNICAL CHECKS SHOULD BE CONDUCTED EXCLUSIVELY BY A TRAINED AND AUTHORISED TECHNICIAN: REPAIRS CARRIED OUT BY UNAUTHORISED PERSONS WILL INVALIDATE THE WARRANTY, AS WELL AS POSING A POTENTIAL HAZARD TO THE USER. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage to persons or property resulting from failure to observe the above precautions, from tampering with even a single component of the appliance, or from the use of non original spare parts. 21 Installation instructions 2. Installation and hook-up Remove the polystyrene basket retainers. Position the appliance in the desired place of installation. The back or sides of the dishwasher may be placed up against walls or other furniture units. If the dishwasher is installed near a heat source, fit the special insulating panel to prevent overheating and malfunction of the appliance. To ensure stability, install integrated or built-under dishwashers only under continuous worktops, and screw them to the adjacent units. To facilitate the installation procedure, the intake and drain hoses can be positioned in any direction; make sure that the hoses are not kinked, crushed or pulled too tightly. A hole at least 8 cm in diameter is required to allow the power supply cable and pipes to pass. Level the appliance on the floor using its adjustable feet. This operation is essential for ensuring correct operation of the dishwasher. For free-standing models only: if the appliance is not built-in and is therefore accessible on one side, the door hinge area must be covered for safety reasons (injury hazard). The covering fixtures are available as an accessory from specialist dealers or the After-Sales Service. The mixture of water and detergent must never penetrate the salt container, as this would compromise the operation of the regeneration system. In the event of this occurring, the warranty will be invalidated. Only use regenerating salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers. If using salt tablets, do not fill the container completely. Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time, may damage the water softening system. When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion. Be careful not to confuse the salt and detergent packages; adding detergent to the salt container will damage the water softening system. 24 User instructions 3. 2 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 is on the left, and the rinse aid dispenser is on the right. 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. 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. To add rinse aid: Open the door. Rotate the container cap anticlockwise by of a turn and remove it. Add the rinse aid until the container is full (approximately 140 cc). [. . . ] Once the assembly has been put back in place, check that the spray arm turns freely (turn through a couple of revolutions by hand) and that the pipe is able to travel without impediments. Otherwise, check that it has been fitted correctly. 31 User instructions CLEANING THE FILTER UNIT The central filter H should be inspected regularly and cleaned if necessary. To remove it, take hold of the handle, turn anti-clockwise and lift. Press the central filter H from below to extract it from the micro-filter. [. . . ]
