• Page 3: Safety information and recommendations Do not leave your dishwasher’s door open, this may lead to accidents and injury. Place knives and other sharp ended objects in the cutlery basket in the point down position. This appliance is not intended for use by persons with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities unless supervised. Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline and can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Keep children away from the machine while it is open because there may still be residues of cleaning substances inside. Any malfunction in the machine should be repaired by qualified persons. Prior to any repair work on the machine, be sure to unplug the dishwasher from the power supply. For energy and water saving, remove coarse residues on your dishes before placing them into the machine. Use the pre-wash program only whenever necessary. Items not suitable for dishwashing include cigarette ashes, candle leftovers, and chemical substances.

The half load function allows selection of which basket to wash, illuminating the corresponding indicator. The energy save option enables autodoor opening at the end of the program to improve drying efficiency. The extra fast function decreases program duration for economical water usage, indicated by the extra fast indicator. The extra silent function reduces sound pressure for a quieter operation, illuminated by the extra silent indicator. The remaining time indicator shows the program duration and remaining time during operation.
• Page 6: The control panel provides essential functions for operating the machine. Do not open the door before the program ends. You can change the program while the machine is running. At the end of the washing program, leaving the door ajar can hasten drying. If the door is opened or power is cut off during washing, the program will continue when the door is closed or power is restored. To change the buzzer sound level, open the door and press Option and Select buttons simultaneously for 3 seconds. The factory setting for the buzzer sound level is S3, with S0 indicating all voices are off. To activate or deactivate save power mode, open the door and press Program and Option buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. When Save Power Mode is activated, the interior lights will turn off after 2 minutes of the door being opened. To cancel a program while it is running, press the Start/Pause button for 3 seconds.
• Page 7: Installing the machine Positioning the machine When considering the location for the dishwasher, ensure that there is adequate space to enable loading and unloading of the dishes. Do not put your machine in any location where the ambient temperature can fall below 5°C. Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by following the warnings located on the package. Position the machine close to a water tap and drain, considering that its connections will not be altered once made. A water tempering valve is required if the water temperature is over 60°C. Always use new hoses when connecting the appliance to the water mains. If the door of your machine does not close properly, check if the machine is stable on the floor. In order to pass the safety valve through the kitchen cabinets, an opening of at least 45mm x 90mm is needed. Ensure that the indoor plumbing is suitable for installing a dishwasher and complies with AS/NZS 3500.1. Do not use the water inlet hose of your old machine; use the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine.
• Page 8: Installing the machine involves connecting the water drain hose either directly to the water drain hole or to the sink outlet spigot. The plug of your machine should be connected to an earthed outlet that supplies suitable voltage and current. If there is no earthing installation, have a competent electrician carry out an earthing installation. The indoor fuse current value should be 10-16 A. This connection should be at a minimum of 50 cm and at a maximum of 110 cm above the base of the dishwasher. The machine is designed for 220-240 V and should not be plugged in during installation. Always use the molded plug supplied with your machine. Maximum drain hose length is 4m; longer hose length will prevent correct draining. For safety purposes, always disconnect the plug when a wash program is finished. When disconnecting your machine from the mains supply, always pull from the plug.
• Page 9: Adjust the machine feet according to the slope of the floor. Fit your machine by pushing it undercounter without letting the hoses get crushed or bent. Fitting the machine undercounter.
• Page 10: Installing the machine
• Page 11: The following options are available. Attach the furniture kickplate. Attach the adjustable plinth group. Follow the instructions supplied with the adjustable plinth group. Installing the machine.
• Page 12: Preparing the machine for use involves several important steps. Check whether the electricity and water supply specifications match the values indicated by the installation instructions for the machine. Remove all packaging materials inside the machine. Fill the rinse aid compartment. Use a detergent specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers. Detergent should be put into the compartment prior to starting the machine. Combined detergents produce acceptable results under certain usage conditions only. Never put combined detergents into the interior section or the cutlery basket. We recommend you do not use combined detergents in short programs. If you encounter problems when using combined detergents, please contact the detergent manufacturer.
• Page 13: Preparing the machine for use involves several steps. To set the rinse aid level, fill the rinse aid compartments and select a suitable rinse aid setting. Turn on the machine by pressing the On/Off button and press the program button for at least 3 seconds immediately after turning on the machine. Release the program button when “rA” is shown to display the last setting level. Set the level by pushing the program button and switch off the machine to save the setting. The factory setting for rinse aid is “4.” If dishes are not drying properly or are spotted, increase the rinse aid level; if blue stains form, decrease the level. Only use rinse aid suitable for automatic dishwashers. Remove excess rinse aid to prevent high amounts of foam and reduced washing performance. Be careful not to overfill the rinse aid compartment and wipe up any spills.
• Page 14: Loading guidelines contribute to energy and water savings. Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items is not recommended. Place cups, glasses, and small plates in the upper basket. Long stem glasses should lean against the basket edge. Containers should be placed with openings facing downwards. Use the cutlery grid for best results if a cutlery basket is present. Place large and very dirty items in the lower rack. Height adjustable racks increase the capacity of the top basket. Do not obstruct the rotation of spray arms after loading. Place long-handle knives with sharp points facing down to avoid injuries.
• Page 15: The upper cutlery basket is designed for forks, spoons, knives, long dippers, and small items. The upper cutlery basket is composed of three pieces. You can slide the left or right part of the upper cutlery basket to obtain more space. The middle part of the upper basket can be moved up and down for additional space. Knives and other sharp objects must be placed horizontally in the cutlery basket. Loading your dishwasher.

• Page 17: Program descriptions include various wash programs such as Sensorwash, Fast 30’, and Eco. Sensorwash is designed for different soil levels: lightly soiled, normally soiled, and heavily soiled dishes. Fast 30’ is suitable for lightly soiled dishes and offers a quick wash option. Delicate 40°C is tailored for delicate dishes with a faster program. The Eco program uses reduced energy and water for standard lightly soiled dishes. Steam is effective for heavily soiled dishes, providing thorough cleaning. Program durations vary, with times ranging from 30 to 234 minutes. Program duration may change based on the amount of dishes, tap water, ambient temperature, and selected additional functions. Only powder detergent should be used in short programs, which do not include a drying step. To assist drying, it is recommended to partially open the door after the program has finished.
• Page 18: Spray arms Make sure that the spray holes are not clogged and that no food waste or foreign object is stuck to the spray arms. Cleaning your dishwasher is important to maintain the machine’s service life. Oil and limescale may build up in your dishwasher over time. To extend the life of your dishwasher, clean the appliance regularly each month. Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp cloth to remove any accumulated residue or foreign objects. Clean the filters and spray arms at least once a week. Large food residues or foreign objects which were not captured by the filters may block the waste water pump. When cleaning the waste water pump, ensure that you do not injure yourself on pieces of broken glass or pointed implements. Never use your dishwasher without a filter. Clean filters are necessary for proper running of the machine.
• Page 19: Failure codes and what to do in case of failure. Possible faults include water inlet system failure, pressure system failure, inability to discharge water, heater error, overheating, diverter position error, faulty heater sensor, high voltage failure, and low voltage failure. Make sure the water inlet tap is open and water is flowing. Separate the inlet hose from the tap and clean the filter of the hose. Contact for service if the error continues. The installation and repairing procedures should always be carried out by the authorised service agent. The manufacturer shall not be held liable for damages that may arise from procedures carried out by unauthorised persons. Improper repairs or use of non-original spare parts may cause considerable damage and put the user at considerable risk. Function-relevant genuine spare parts can be obtained from customer service for a period of at least 10 years.
• Page 20: Troubleshooting If one of the program monitor lights is on and the start/pause light is flashing, your machine’s door is open, shut the door. If the program won’t start, check if the plug is connected, indoor fuses, and that the water inlet tap is turned on. If detergent residues are left in the detergent compartment, it may be due to detergent added when the compartment was wet or a large dish blocking the dispenser door. If water is left inside the machine at the end of the program, the water drain hose may be clogged or twisted. If the machine stops during a wash operation, it could be due to a power failure or water inlet failure. If shaking and hitting noises are heard during a wash operation, dishes may be placed incorrectly or the spray arm may be hitting the dishes. If there are partial food wastes left on the dishes, it may be due to incorrect placement or an overloaded basket. If there are whitish stains on the dishes, a very small amount of detergent may be used or the rinse aid dosage setting may be too low. If the dishes won’t dry up, a program without a dry operation may have been selected or dishes may have been unloaded too fast. If there are rust stains on the dishes, the stainless-steel quality may be insufficient or there may be unhealthy mains grounding.
