Loading your Dishwasher
The dishwasher is designed to receive a standard “4 piece” plate setting.
-NOTE: for ease of loading/unloading large size dinner plates from the dish rack it may be necessary to (temporarily) remove the cutlery basket. When loading/unloading is complete, return the cutlery basket to its original position.
Preparing your Dishes for Washing

-Remove excessive quantities of oil or grease.

-Cups, pots, glasses, etc should be placed upside down.
When loading items to be washed:

-Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of
-Do not load plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
-Do not load glasses over the dish rack pins. Glasses loaded over dish rack pins are not properly supported and are likely to get damaged.
-Items with wooden or bone handles and items joined together with glue are unsuitable as they cannot resist hot water.
-Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
-Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
-Do not tamper with controls.

Using the Right Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers, as other types will cause
How much Detergent Should You Use
That depends if your water is ‘hard’ or ‘soft’.
HARD WATER REQUIRES MORE DETERGENT TO GET DISHES CLEAN.
SOFT WATER REQUIRES LESS DETERGENT TO GET DISHES CLEAN.
-The recessed detergent area located on the inside door panel will hold max 20 grams of detergent.
How to use the water softener
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will be formed on the dishes and utensils. This appliance is equipped with a water softener which uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate the minerals from the water.
How to load the salt into the softener (must be loaded prior to first use !)
1.Unscrew the cap from the salt container anticlockwise, which is located on the right side of the inner box.
2.Load the salt into the container. Each time you may load 250g of salt, which can be used for 15 cycles.
3.Fill the water into the salt container until a small amount of water comes out. (It is very important when you use it for the first time)
4.Screw the cap back carefully.
Note:
1.Load the salt before the beginning of wash cycle so as to prevent corrosion.
2.Only use dishwasher salt (fine or coarse).
3.Please add the salt when the salt indicator bright.
Using a Rinsing Agent
You can help prevent unsightly spots on dishes and glassware, and reduce drying time by using a rinse agent. A rinse agent is specially formulated to rinse away food and detergent residues that can be left behind on your dishes. Used regularly, a rinse agent will automatically provide you with cleaner dishes every time you wash.
To fill the rinse agent dispenser, unscrew the dispenser cap located on the inside back. Add the rinse agent slowly into the container until it just reaches the bottom of the filling cap inside the dispenser opening. Replace the cap. The dispenser automatically releases the rinse agent into the final rinse water.
Note: Clean off large particles of food sediments before placing dishes in the dishwasher.
Connected to Cold water: Use the “SANI” feature
If you have connected the washer to a cold water supply, you will need to leave it in the “SANI” setting. The “SANI” feature gives you the option of washing/drying dishes at high water temperatures. When activated, the “SANI” feature energizes a heating element that will raise and maintain the internal water temperature of the dishwasher at 62ºC.
! CAUTION !
Water temperatures this high can cause severe burns/scalding. Always exercise extreme care when opening and/or entering the dishwasher during the hot - wash cycle.
To activate this feature, set the “SANI/ECONO” button to the “in” position.
