Closing the door
Place the baskets in the machine.
Make sure that both the spray arms are free to rotate and are not obstructed by
cutlery, crockery or pans. Close the door, pressing on it to make sure it is firmly shut.
Water softener unit
Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone
and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks.
The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is.
The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special
regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes.
The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply company.

Installation in fitted kitchens
Fitting between existing cabinets
The height of the dishwasher, 85 cm, has been designed in order to allow the machine
to be fitted between existing cabinets of the same height in modern fitted kitchens.
The feet can be adjusted so that correct height is reached.
The laminated top of the machine does not require any particular care since it is
heatproof, scratchproof and stainproof (fig. 5).
The work top can be easily adjusted to line it with the top of existing cabinets; this is
done by moving it by 5 mm each time up to a maximum of 25 mm.
To adjust it, unscrew the two screws at the back and fix the top in the position
required (fig. 6).
Underneath existing work top (when fitting beneath a work top)
In most modern fitted kitchens there is only one single work top under which cabinets
and electrical appliances are fitted.
In this case remove the work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under
the rear edge of the top (fig. 6).
The height will then be reduced to 82 cm, as scheduled by the International
Regulations (ISO) and the dishwasher will fit perfectly under the kitchen working top
(fig. 7).
Opening the door
Put your hand into the recess and push upwards.
If the machine comes open while it is working, an electrical safety device
automatically switches everything off.
For the machine to work properly, the door should not be opened while it is in
operation.

Regulating the water softener
with electronic programmer
The water softener can treat water with a hardness level of up to 90°fH (French
grading) or 50°dH (German grading) through 6 settings.
The settings, are listed in the panel below:
The softener unit is set in the factory at level 3 (Indicator light N.3) as this satisfies
the requirements of the majority of users. Regulate the setting of your water softener
unit according to the degree of hardness of your water as follows: keep button “1/2
LOAD” pressed in for a few seconds and at the same time press the “ON/OFF” button.
The indicator light of button “1/2 LOAD” will start flashing and indicator light N.3 (the
factory setting) will come on. To change the setting, press button “1/2 LOAD”. Each
time you press that button, the next indicator light will come on. When the required
indicator light comes on, wait for the audible signal to confirm that the new setting
has been stored in memory.
