Adding rinse aid (not necessary when you use tablets). How to adjust the rinse aid dosage regulator

Daily check
The rinse aid dosage can be adjusted to the detergent used. The lower the setting, the less rinse aid is dispensed (factory setting: position 4). Press the button to open the cover B. Using a coin or similar object, turn the arrow to the desired setting. After adjusting the rinse aid setting, shut the cover again.

Visual indicator

If required, open the cover B (press the dedicated button).

Add rinse aid to the max. line ~150 ml

Check the rinse aid indicator to check the level into the dispenser.

(depending on the model) Rinse aid indicator on the control panel The indicator lamp lights up when RINSE AID NEEDS TO BE ADDED.

Rinse aid indicator on the dispenser dark: OK. clear: NEEDS TO BE ADDED

Only use rinse aids recommended for use in domestic dishwashers. Immediately wipe away any rinse aid spilt accidentally. This prevents the formation of excess suds which can cause a fault function of the appliance. If there are streaks: reduce the dosage by turning the dial to a lower setting (1-3). If crockery is not perfectly dry: increase the dosage by turning the dial to a higher setting (5-6). Plastic dishes have more difficulty drying and a higher rinse aid setting will not improve the situation. Detergents with rinse aid incorporated may be effective only with longer programs. In the case of shorter programs, detergent residue may be a problem (if necessary, use powder detergent). Detergents with rinse aid incorporated tend to form excess suds.

Adding detergent - Use only detergent specifically for dishwashers in accordance with the suppliers recommendations
Open the cover A (press the dedicated button). Insert detergent: Tablet / powder / liquid into the big chamber

Daily use
Shut the cover by pressing dedicated ribs.

Only fill the detergent dispenser prior to starting a wash program.

Use only one tablet per one cycle, only placed in detergent dispenser. All types of tablets can be used, but for 2 in 1 type adding of salt is mandatory.

What to do if...
If a fault occurs, before contacting the After-sales Service, make the following checks to try and remedy the problem. Most faults can be remedied by taking the following courses of action, quickly restoring normal appliance operation. The appliance... ...is not working/will not start Possible causes... The appliance must be switched on. The dishwasher door doesnt close. Delayed start option is ON. Water tap closed. Kinked water inlet hose or clogged inlet filters. Water pressure too low. Dirty or clogged filters. Too little water in the dishwashers water system. Drain hose incorrectly fitted. High level of foam inside. Dirty filters. Kinked drain hose. Syphon hose connection closed. Solutions... - Check the household circuit fuse if there is no power supply. - Check if the dishwashers door is closed. - Check whether the Delayed start option (if available) has been selected. If it has, the appliance will only start once the set time has elapsed. If necessary, set the delayed start to 0 (RESET the appliance). - The water tap must be open. - The water inlet hose must not be kinked and the relative inlet filter in the water tap connector must not be dirty or clogged. - The water tap must be fully open during water inlet (minimum capacity: 0.5 litres per minute). - The filters must not be dirty or clogged. - Concave items (e.g. bowls, cups) must be arranged facing downwards in the rack. - The drain hose must be fitted correctly (for high mounted appliances, leave min. 200-400 mm from the lower edge of the appliance) - see Assembly instructions. - Repeat without detergent or wait until foam disappears. - Clean the filters. - The drain hose must not be kinked. - The closure disk of the syphon hose connection must be removed.

...the CANCEL/Off indicator lamp blinks 6 times

...the CANCEL/Off indicator lamp blinks 6 times/wash program ended too early (dishes are dirty and wet)

...the CANCEL/Off indicator lamp blinks 8 times

After taking the above course of action, the fault message must be reset. In the majority of cases the fault is thus eliminated. RESET: Press the CANCEL/Off button. Close the door. Water drains automatically for up to 1 minute. The appliance is now ready to be restarted.

Crockery and cutlery... ...are not perfectly clean/have food residues -

Possible causes... Solutions... Too little space between dishes (incorrect arrangement - Arrange crockery so that items do not touch each other. Concave items (e.g. bowls, cups) must be of the concave items in the rack). arranged facing downwards in the rack. the manufacturers T little detergent; detergent too old or incorrectly stored. - If necessary, use more detergent, observing for excessively longindications as regards dosage. Always store oo detergent in a dry place and do not store it periods of time. - For heavily soiled crockery, select a wash program with a higher temperature (see table of programs Temperature not high enough for heavily soiled crockery. page 1). Loading of the dishwasher using lower and upper rack - If you select the Half load/Multizone option (if available), remember to load only the upper rack or only at the same time with Half load/Multizone option. the lower rack to increase washing power and thus obtain optimum wash results. - In the event of frequent use of the Eco 50C program (if available), from time to time select the Intensive Frequent use of Eco 50C. 70C program (if available). - The spray arms must not be clogged, the filters must not be dirty and must be fitted correctly (see page 5, Clogged spray arms, dirty filters or not fitted correctly. Maintenance and care). Spray arms stuck impeded by crockery or cutlery. - The spray arms must be able to turn freely and must not be impeded by crockery or cutlery.

What to do if...
Crockery and cutlery... ...salt indicator lit ...have deposits: regeneration salt residue ...are not dry Possible causes... Use tablets for soft water. Water too hard. Salt reservoir cap open. Not enough rinse aid. Plastic containers dry badly. Solutions... - Set Tablet option; if this option is not available, it is normal for the salt indicator to light up. - In areas with very hard water, more regeneration salt needs to be added (see page 2, How to set water hardness). - Close the salt reservoir cap properly. - If you use a combined action detergent, try adding more rinse aid. - Synthetic materials do not dry well; if wet at end of cycle, wipe dry.

Clean dishes left in dishwasher for a long time after end - In this situation, the presence of drops of water on dishes and on the sides of the dishwasher is normal. of cycle (e.g. when using Delayed start option). Try releasing the door 5 minutes before removing the dishes. Incorrect arrangement of the concave items in the rack. - Arrange crockery so that water does not collect in cavities. Incorrect dosage the rinse aid. Rapid program selected. - Increase the dosage of rinse aid (see page 3, Adding rinse aid). - The Rapid program 40C / 45C is intended for quickly washing lightly soiled dishes. If used for a full load of medium/heavy soiled dishes, the dishes may not dry completely. If so, select a standard-length program. For best results, open the door after the end of the program and wait 15 minutes before unloading the dishwasher. - Tomato sauce, for example, can lead to discolouring of plastic parts. Powder detergent is recommended as it allows slightly higher doses to be used for improved whitening. Programs with higher wash temperatures should be used. - Only use dishwasher-proof crockery and dishes. - Dishes should be put together, to avoid touching each other. Do not put glassware together in baskets. Use suitable program for glass. - Some kinds of glass cannot be washed in the dishwasher. This phenomenon is irreversible. We recommend in future: Change the control of system of dosage of softener. Be careful follow recommended detergent dosage. For combined action tablets see detergent producers recommendations.
