Please prevail in kind.
Page 9: Using your dishwasher Before using your dishwasher Loading the basket Fill the rinse aid dispenser Fill in detergent Adjusting the upper basket The height of the upper basket can be easily adjusted to accommodate taller dishes. To adjust the height of the upper rack, follow these steps. Remove the upper basket. Re-attach the upper basket to upper or lower rollers.
Page 10: To raise the upper basket, just lift the upper basket at the center of each side until the basket locks into place in the upper position. To lower the upper basket, lift the adjust handles on each side to release the basket and lower it to the lower position. To make room for taller items in the upper basket, raise the cup rack upwards. You can lean the tall glasses against the raised cup rack. You can also remove the cup rack when it is not required for use. The spikes of the lower basket are used for holding plates and a platter. The spikes can be lowered to make more room for large items. The upper basket does not require lifting the adjuster handle for raising. Folding back the cup shelves allows for more space in the upper basket. Folding back the rack shelves provides flexibility for larger items.
Page 11: Maintenance and cleaning External care Clean the door seals regularly with a soft damp cloth to remove food deposits. Food and drink residues may drip onto the sides of the dishwasher door. These surfaces are outside the wash cabinet and are not accessed by water from the spray arms. The control panel should be wiped with a soft damp cloth only. To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind. Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces. The filtering system in the base of the wash cabinet retains coarse debris from the washing cycle. Check the condition of the filters regularly and clean them if necessary under running water. Pictures are only for reference; different models of the filtering system and spray arms may be different.
Page 12: Coarse filter Main filter Fine filter Hold the coarse filter and rotate it anticlockwise to unlock the filter. Lift the filter upwards and out of the dishwasher. The fine filter can be pulled off the bottom of the filter assembly. Larger food remnants can be cleaned by rinsing the filter under running water. Reassemble the filters in the reverse order of the disassembly. For a more thorough clean, use a soft cleaning brush. Do not over tighten the filters. Never use the dishwasher without filters in place. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance.
Page 13: Spray arms need to be cleaned regularly to prevent clogging from hard water chemicals. To clean the spray arms, follow specific instructions. To remove the upper spray arm, hold the nut in the center still and rotate the spray arm counterclockwise. To remove the lower spray arm, pull it out upward. Wash the arms in soapy and warm water. Use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace the spray arms after rinsing them thoroughly.
Page 14: Caring for the dishwasher includes taking frost protection measures in winter. After every wash, turn off the water supply and leave the door slightly open to prevent moisture and odors. Always remove the plug from the socket before cleaning or performing maintenance. Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products on the exterior and rubber parts; use a cloth with warm soapy water instead. For interior stains, use a cloth dampened with water and a little vinegar or a dishwasher-specific cleaning product. When not in use for a long time, run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty, then unplug and leave the door slightly open. If moving the appliance, keep it in a vertical position; it can be laid on its back if necessary. Food trapped in the seals can cause odors, so periodic cleaning with a damp sponge is recommended.
Page 15: Installation instruction Electrical shock hazard Disconnect electrical power before installing dishwasher. The installation of the pipes and electrical equipment should be done by professionals. Do not use an extension cord or an adapter plug with this appliance. Do not cut or remove the earthing connection from the power cord. Look at the rating label to know the rating voltage and connect the dishwasher to the appropriate power supply. Use the required fuse 10A/13A/16A, time delay fuse or circuit breaker recommended. Ensure the voltage and frequency of the power being corresponds to those on the rating plate. Only insert the plug into an electrical socket which is earthed properly.
Page 16: Water supply and drain Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4 inch connector and make sure that it is fastened tightly in place. If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is clear. This precaution is needed to avoid the risk of the water inlet being blocked and damaging the appliance. A hose that attaches to a sink spray can burst if it is installed on the same water line as the dishwasher. If your sink has one, it is recommended that the hose be disconnected and the hole plugged.
Page 17: Connection of drain hoses requires inserting the hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm or letting it run into the sink. The height of the drain pipe must be less than 1000mm, and the free end of the hose must not be immersed in water to avoid backflow. Securely fix the drain hose in either position A or position B. If the sink is 1000mm higher from the floor, excess water in hoses cannot be drained directly into the sink. Drain excess water from hoses into a bowl or suitable container that is held outside and lower than the sink. Ensure that the water drain hose is correctly fitted to avoid leaks and is not kinked or squashed. If an extension hose is needed, use a similar drain hose that is no longer than 4 meters to maintain cleaning effectiveness. The waste connection must be at a height less than 100 cm from the bottom of the dish. The water drain hose should be fixed to prevent movement.
Page 18: Position the appliance in the desired location with the back against the wall and sides along adjacent cabinets or walls. The dishwasher has water supply and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or left for proper installation. The height of the dishwasher can be adjusted by altering the screwing level of the feet. The appliance should not be inclined more than 2 degrees. The height of the dishwasher is 845 mm, designed to fit between existing cabinets of the same height in modern kitchens. The feet can be adjusted to reach the correct height. The laminated top of the machine is heatproof, scratchproof, and stainproof.
Page 19: 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. Remove the work top of the dishwasher by unscrewing the screws under the rear edge of the top. After removing the work top, the screws must be screwed again under the rear edge of the top. The height will then be reduced to 815 mm, as scheduled by the International Regulations (ISO). The dishwasher will fit perfectly under the kitchen working top.
Page 20: Troubleshooting tips can help avoid unnecessary service calls. Check for a blown fuse or tripped circuit breaker if the dishwasher doesn't start. Ensure the power supply is turned on and the dishwasher door is securely closed. Verify that the power cord is properly plugged into the wall socket. Low water pressure may indicate improper connection or that the water is turned off. Make sure the dishwasher door is properly closed and latched. Inspect the drain hose for twists or traps that may hinder drainage. A clogged filter can prevent water from being pumped out of the dishwasher. Check the kitchen sink for clogs that may affect drainage. Use only special dishwasher detergent to avoid suds issues.

Page 31: Preparing and loading dishes Consider buying utensils that are identified as dishwasher-proof. For particular items, select a program with the lowest possible temperature. To prevent damage, do not take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher immediately after the program has ended. Cutlery with wooden, horn china or mother-of-pearl handles are not suitable. Plastic items that are not heat resistant are not suitable. Some types of glasses can become dull after a large number of washes. Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water. For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines. Place objects in the dishwasher in a way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
Page 32: Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, and pans with the opening facing downwards to prevent water collection. Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another or cover each other. To avoid damage, glasses should not touch one another. The upper basket is designed for more delicate and lighter dishware. Long bladed knives stored upright are a potential hazard. Long and sharp items of cutlery should be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. Do not overload your dishwasher for good results and reasonable energy consumption. Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could fall out of the basket. To prevent water dripping, empty the lower basket first, followed by the upper basket. Items will be hot; do not take glass and cutlery out for around 15 minutes after the program has ended.
Page 33: Loading the upper basket is designed for delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups, and saucers. Position the dishes and cookware so they will not get moved by the spray of water. Loading the lower basket should include large items and difficult-to-clean items like pots, pans, lids, and serving dishes. Place serving dishes and lids on the side of the racks to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm. The maximum diameter advised for plates in front of the detergent dispenser is 19 cm to ensure it can open properly. Cutlery should be placed in the cutlery rack separately to avoid nesting, which may cause poor performance. Do not let any item extend through the bottom and always load sharp utensils with the sharp point down. For the best washing effect, refer to standard loading options in the last section of PART I: Generic Version.
Page 34: Function of the rinse aid and detergent The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances. When to refill the rinse aid dispenser You should never let the rinse aid level be less than 1/4 full. Function of detergent The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and dispense all dirt out of the dishwasher. Use only detergent specifically made for dishwashers use. Dishwasher detergent is corrosive.
Page 35: Filling the rinse aid reservoir involves opening the dispenser by turning the cap to the open arrow and lifting it out. Carefully pour in the rinse aid, avoiding overflow. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with an absorbent cloth to prevent excessive foaming during the next wash. Replace the cap by aligning it with the open arrow and turning it to the closed arrow. Adjust the rinse aid reservoir by turning the rinse aid indicator dial to a number between 1 and 6. The higher the number, the more rinse aid the dishwasher uses. If dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher number until dishes are spot-free. Reduce the setting if there are sticky whitish stains or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
Page 36: Filling the detergent dispenser involves several steps. Press the release catch on the detergent dispenser to open the cover. Add detergent into the larger cavity for the main wash cycle. For more heavily soiled wash loads, also add some detergent into the smaller cavity for the pre-wash cycle. Close the cover and press on it until it locks into place. Be aware that depending on the soiling of water, settings may be different. Please observe the manufacturer's recommendations on the detergent packaging.
