Prior to using for the first time

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

1.Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions

2.Remove all packaging from inside the appliance

3.Set the water softener

4.Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt

5.Fill the rinse aid dispenser

The water softener

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.

The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is.

Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke degrees, French degrees and mmol/l (millimol per litre).

The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.

The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water hardness switch and electronically, using the function push buttons on the control panel.

a) Setting manually

1.Open the dishwasher door.

2.Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.

3. Turn the water hardness switch to position 1 or 2 (see table).

4.Replace the lower basket.

b)Setting electronically

(The dishwasher must be switched off)

The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.

1. Press the On/Off push button. All programme selection push

buttons indicator lights will illuminate (setting mode).

If only one programme selection push button indicator light

is illuminated, this means that a washing programme has

been selected.

The programme must be cancelled: press simultaneously

the function push buttons 2 and 3 for about 2 seconds, the

indicator light of the set programme push button starts

flashing for about 2 seconds.

After about 2 seconds the indicator lights of all the

programme selection push buttons will illuminate indicating

that the set programme has been cancelled and that the

machine is now in setting mode.

2. Press simultaneously function push buttons 2 and 3, until

the indicator lights of the function push buttons 1, 2 and 3

start flashing.

3. Press the function push button 1, the indicator lights of

function push buttons 2 and 3 turn off while the indicator

light of the push button 1 goes on flashing, at the same time

the END OF CYCLE indicator light illuminates, along with a

sequence of audible signals.

The current level is indicated by the number of flashes of

the END OF CYCLE indicator light and of audible signals

heard.

Example:

5 flashes + 5 audible signals = level 5.

4. To change the level, press push button 1. Each time the

push button is pressed the level changes. (For the selection

of the new level see the chart).

Examples:

The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.

AA07

level 6 is selected.

if the current level is 10, by pressing push button 1 once,
