For safety reasons, you should not convert or modify your dishwasher in any way. Before using your dishwasher for the first time Check your dishwasher for any transport damage.
Always turn off the water tap when your dishwasher is left unattended for any length of time, e.g. when you are away on holiday. Only transport the dishwasher in an upright position. Tipping it upside down during transport could cause salty water to leak into the internal compartment and lead to the formation of rust.
Disposing of your old machine When your machine finally reaches the end of its life and you withdraw it from service, you should render it unserviceable before having it disposed of. Warning! Children at play could lock themselves in your machine (and suffocate) or otherwise endanger their lives.

5. Fill the rinse-aid dispenser. Setting the water hardness range The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.

To select a different level be sure that the dishwasher is off and then proceed as follows: 1. Press INTENSIV 70° and 30 MIN programme push buttons simultaneously. 2. While keeping the programme push buttons INTENSIV 70° and 30 MIN pressed switch on the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push button.
4. To memorise the new level, switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push button. Filling with special salt Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water softener.
The rinse-aid The rinse-aid ensures brilliant crockery and also helps it to dry. It is automatically added in during the hot rinsing cycle. The storage compartment built in to the inside of the door can hold about 110 ml of rinse-aid, which will be sufficient for between 16 and 40 dishwashing programmes, according to the dosage setting.

Wooden platters. Items made from synthetic fibres. Attention! When buying new dishes, ensure that they are dishwasher proof. Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing the performance. Open the door and slide out the baskets.
The lower basket The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the upper spray arm can turn freely. UI51 The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls.
Such cutlery can be placed in the upper basket. To unload your dishwasher more easily, you can take the cutlery basket out of the lower basket and unfold it. this makes it easier to remove small pieces of cutlery.
Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely. Adjusting the height of the upper basket If washing very large plates (over 27 cm and up to 31 cm in diameter) you can load them in the lower basket after moving the upper basket to the higher position. To move to the higher position proceed as follows: 1.
If detergents in tablet form are used with the “30 MIN“ programme, it is advisable to put the tablet directly in the dishwasher and not in the dispenser or in special tablet containers. This ONLY applies to this programme.
50°C programmes and compact powders On the basis of their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be classified into two groups: - conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components: - low-alkaline compact powders with natural enzymes. The enzymes in low-alkaline compact powders have a dirt-dissolving effect and are also biodegradable.
2. In these programmes the appliance is fitted with a special device “SENSORLOGIC”. This device allows the dishwasher to automatically individuate if the baskets are full loaded or not and consequently riduce the washing temperature and time duration of the programme.
Page 21
Programme Delicate 40°C with “SENSORLOGIC” 4. This dishwasher gives you the possibility to select a “Rinse and Hold” programme by the use of the “Intensive 70°” push button. By pressing the “Intensive 70°” push button only once, the phase indicator lights of that programme (washing and drying) will come on.
Add the required amount of detergent into the dispenser according to the recommended quantity given in the Washing programmes chart. Close the detergent dispenser lid. 7. Close the dishwasher door 8a. Setting and starting the programme without “Delay Start” Press the push button corresponding to the required programme: the indicator light corresponding to the programme illuminates and the phase indicator lights for that programme start flashing.
It is now possible to select a new washing programme. 10. At the end of the washing programme The dishwasher will automatically stop and the phase indicator light “end of programme” will come on. The indicator light of the programme just ended will remain on.
Page 24
Switch off the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off push button. Wait a few minutes before opening the dishwasher’s door; in this way they will be cooler and the drying will be improved. Empty the lower basket first and then the upper one; this will avoid water dripping from the upper basket onto the dishes in the lower one.
Nevertheless the filters should be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the washing result. 1. Open the door, remove the lower basket. 2. The dishwasher filter system comprises a coarse/fine filter, microfilter and a flat filter. Unlock the filter system using a handle on the microfilter, and remove.
Page 26
During this process ensure that the flat filter does not protrude above the base of the washing compartment. The dishwasher must not be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results.
Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer. The dishwasher is fitted with a number of alarm systems which can help you to quickly determine the cause of any problems such as; the dishwasher will not start or...
