Drain pipe must be connected to the sewage system and it should not be connected to any surface water. If the door of the product cannot be closed properly or if the product rocks when you push it slightly, then you need to adjust the feet of the product.
• Page 15: Read “Quick Guide - Adjusting Water Softening System” before this section. The regeneration of the water softening system can be done in all programmes during drying step. When regeneration occurs, duration, energy and water consumption of the programme increase. Frequency of regeneration cycle, maximum additional duration, water and energy consumption are given in the table below. Tips for energy saving will help you use the product in an ecological and energy-efficient manner. Wipe away any coarse food remnants on the dishes before putting them in the product. Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items leads to increased water and energy consumption and is not recommended. Washing tableware in a household dishwasher usually consumes less energy and water than hand dishwashing. Operate the product after filling it completely. The product is equipped with a water softening system which reduces the hardness of incoming water.
• Page 16: Adding salt is essential for the water softening system to operate continuously at optimal performance. Use only special softening salts designed for dishwashers. About 2 kg of softening salt can be added to the salt reservoir. Granule or powder-form softening salts are recommended; avoid table salt or rock salt. Replace and tighten the lid after filling the reservoir. Add salt right before starting the machine to prevent corrosion. If not starting immediately, run the machine empty on the shortest program. The salt indicator may remain on for a while after adding salt. Use only detergents specifically made for dishwashers, avoiding those with chlorine and phosphate. Add 1 liter of water to the salt reservoir only during the initial use.
• Page 17: Adding detergent Pay attention to the warnings on the detergent packaging to get better washing and drying results. Do not put solvents into the detergent dispenser. There is the risk of explosion! Push the lid of the detergent dispenser to close it. A click will be heard when the lid is closed. Put the detergent into the detergent dispenser just before operating the machine. Push the latch to the right to open the detergent dispenser lid. Put suggested amount of powder, liquid/gel or tablet detergent in the reservoir. Inside the detergent dispenser there are level markings that help you use appropriate amount of powder detergent. When brimful, detergent dispenser will contain 45 cm³ of detergent. Fill detergent up to 15 cm³ or 25 cm³ level marks in the detergent dispenser according to fullness of the machine and/or soiling degree of the dishes. Use powder or liquid/gel detergent in short programmes without prewash since the solubility of the tablet detergent changes depending on the temperature and time.
• Page 18: After the empty washing cycle, review the user manual and readjust the water hardness level to suit the water supply. In addition to conventional tablet detergents, there are commercially available detergent tablets that show water softening salt and/or rinse aid effect. These tablets show their effects up to a certain water hardness level (21°dH). Water softening salt and rinse aid must also be used together with the detergent if the water hardness level is above the mentioned level. The rinse aid used in dishwashers is a special combination that aims to increase drying efficiency and prevent water or lime stains on the washed items. Care must be paid to have rinse aid in the rinse aid reservoir and to use rinse aids produced specially for dishwashers only. The best washing performance in dishwashers is obtained by using detergent, rinse aid, and water softening salt individually. Observe the instructions of the detergent manufacturer on the package when using tablet detergents. Contact the detergent manufacturer if your dishes are wet and/or if you notice limescale spots particularly on your glasses after the washing programme is over when using a tablet detergent. When switching to powder detergent from tablet detergent, make sure that salt and rinse aid reservoirs are full.
• Page 19: Slightly press the point of the reservoir lid to close it. Decorative prints of chinaware and aluminium and silver items may get discoloured or tarnished after washing in the dishwasher. Some delicate glass types and crystals may become dull over time. It is recommended to check if the tableware is suitable for washing in the dishwasher. If there are stains on tableware items after washing, the level must be increased, and if there is a blue trace after wiping, it must be decreased. This is set to position 3 as factory default. Placing the dishes in the dishwasher should be done in an orderly way to optimize energy consumption and washing performance. Wipe away any coarse food remnants on the dishes before placing them in the dishwasher. Place thin, narrow pieces in the middle sections of baskets if possible. Place heavily soiled and bigger items in the lower basket and smaller, delicate items in the upper basket. Never wash dishes soiled by cigarette ash, candle remnants, or chemicals in the dishwasher. Place hollowed dishes upside down to prevent water accumulation. Do not wash silverware and cutlery with wooden or bone stems in the dishwasher. Always place sharp and pointed dishes upside down to prevent injuries. Unload dishes in the lower basket first, then the upper basket.

Check if the filter system is clean. Do not overload the baskets in excess of their capacity. If you are using powder detergent, do not store the detergent package in humid places. Adjust the amount of detergent according to the soiling degree of your dishes and/or programme definitions. Check the rinse aid indicator and add rinse aid if necessary. Dishes are not dry at the end of cycle Place your dishes in a way that no water will accumulate in them.
• Page 42: Rinse aid is not sufficient. Check the rinse aid indicator and add rinse aid if necessary. Increase the rinse aid setting if there is enough amount of rinse aid in the machine. Do not unload your machine right after washing process is completed. Slightly open the door and wait for evacuation of the steam inside for a while. Unload the dishes after the pieces cool down to a touchable level. Selected programme is unsuitable. Since rinsing temperature is low at programmes with short duration, drying performance will also be low. Select programmes with longer duration for a higher drying performance. Desired washing performance cannot be obtained on kitchen utensils with deteriorated surfaces and it is not suitable to use such utensils in terms of hygiene. It is not recommended to wash such kitchen utensils in dishwasher. It is normal that drying complaints can be experienced with Teflon kitchen utensils. Water droplets will remain as beads on the Teflon surface. Select a programme with a higher temperature and cycle time for tea, coffee, or lipstick stains. Detergent is stored under unsuitable conditions. If using powder detergent, do not store the detergent package in humid places. Lime traces remain on dishes and glassware gains a misty appearance. Check the rinse aid indicator and add rinse aid if necessary. Water hardness setting is low or salt level is insufficient. Measure the hardness of the supply water appropriately and check the water hardness setting. Pay attention not to spill salt around the salt filling hole while adding salt. Make sure that the salt reservoir lid is tightly closed after finishing the filling process.
• Page 43: There is a different odour in the machine. A new machine has a peculiar odour that will fade out after a couple of washes. Check if the filter system is clean and clean the filter system regularly. If dirty dishes are kept in the dishwasher for 2-3 days, remove remnants and run the Prewash programme without detergent every 2 days. Salt leakage may cause deterioration and oxidation on metal surfaces. If cutlery soiled with salty food remnants is kept waiting in the machine, dirt must be removed by prewash. Check if your machine is connected to the actual grounding line to avoid static electric issues. Intensive cleansers such as bleaches can damage the protective cover on metal surfaces. Do not use metal kitchen utensils for purposes other than their intended uses. Corrosion on low-quality stainless steel items is inevitable; they should not be washed in dishwashers. Make sure that the detergent dispenser is dried well prior to filling it with detergent.
• Page 44: Opening of the detergent dispenser lid is prevented during washing. Place the dishes in a way that will not prevent the detergent dispenser lid from opening. Detergent is stored under unsuitable conditions. If you are using powder detergent, do not store the detergent package in humid places. Impeller holes are clogged. Lower and upper impeller holes might be clogged with food remnants. Clean the impellers regularly. Decorated glasses and decorated lustre porcelains are not suitable for washing in the dishwasher. Kitchen utensils that contain or are made of aluminium should not be washed in the dishwasher. Pay attention not to spill salt around the salt filling hole while adding salt. Spilled salt can cause scratches. Measure the hardness of the supply water appropriately and check the water hardness setting. When placing glasses and other glassware into the basket, lean them against the edges or racks of the basket. Excessive rinse aid is used. Lower rinse aid setting and clean the spilled rinse aid when adding. Corrosion has occurred on glass due to soft water. If your supply water is soft, do not use salt.
• Page 45: Foam forms in the machine. Dishes are washed with hand-wash detergent by hand but not rinsed before placing them into the machine. Hand-wash detergents do not contain antifoam. Rinse aid has spilled into the machine when adding rinse aid. Lid of the rinse aid reservoir is left open. Kitchen utensils are broken. Dishes are not placed orderly in the machine. Baskets are overloaded. Water remains in the dishwasher at the end of the programme. Filters are clogged. Discharge hose is clogged/blocked.
