PART 3: INSTALLATION

Unpacking

Remove the external packaging, remove the protective plastic  lm from the surface of the appliance (if used)

and clean the external parts of the appliance with an agent designed for this purpose. Do not use steel wool or

any coarse agents, which could irreparably damage the surface of the appliance. Carefully remove all papers

and adhesive tape from the appliance, door and other parts packed in polystyrene. Remove documents and

accessories from inside the appliance.

The packaging material is recyclable and is marked with a recycling symbol. For disposal follow the local

regulations. Packaging materials (plastic bags, polystyrene parts, etc.) must be kept out of the reach of children,

because they present a possible source of danger.

Carefully inspect the appliance. If you discover any defects, stop the installation and contact the vendor.

Placement

Place the appliance in the desired location. The dishwasher is equipped with a water supply hose and a drain

hose, which can be connected either on the right or left hand side of the dishwasher.

Levelling the appliance

After placing the dishwasher in its place it is not level, you can level it by using the levelling feet. Under no

circumstances should the dishwasher be tilted by more than 2°.

Connecting to a power source

WARNING!

For reason of personal safety:

Do not connect to an extension cord or a multi-plug socket. Under no circumstances remove or cut

away grounding from the power cord.

Power source demands

Information about the required voltage for the connection of the dishwasher to a suitable power source is

contained on the appliance's rating label. Use the required 10A fuse, the recommended delaying fuse or circuit

breaker and ensure that this appliance has its own independent electrical circuit.

Before use, check that the appliance is properly grounded.

EN - 7

Electrical connection

Check that the voltage and frequency of the used power source correspond to the information on the

appliance's rating label. Insert the power plug only into a properly grounded power socket. If the socket to

which the appliance will be connected is not properly grounded, replace the socket rather than using adapters,

etc., which could lead to overheating or burning.

WARNING!

 The incorrect connection of the grounding conductor may create a risk of injury by electrical

shock.

 If you have any doubts about the proper grounding of the appliance, ask a quali ed electrician

or service technician for veri cation.

 Do not modify the power plug supplied with the appliance. If the power plug does not correctly

 t into your power socket, ask a quali ed electrician to replace it.

Water supply

How to connect the water supply hose?

You must connect the dishwasher to a water supply using a new hose. Do not use perished, old or otherwise

damaged hoses.

Water pressure must be in the range 0.03 MPa to 1 MPa. If the water pressure in your system is lower, ask for

advice from our service department.

 Pull out the hose fully from the storage area in the rear part of the dishwasher.

 Screw in the water supply hose to a tap with a 3/4" thread.

 Fully open the water supply before turning on the dishwasher.

Water supply hose

The water supply hose has double wall. The water  lling system guarantees intervention by blocking the

water supply in the event that the water supply hose fails.

WARNING!

The hose connected to the water supply to the sink may break, if the sink is connected to the same

water system as the dishwasher. We recommend that you disconnect the hose and plug the opening.

EN - 8

How to disconnect the water supply hose?

 Shut o the water inlet.

 Reduce water pressure by pressing the reduce pressure button. This will reduce the water pressure and

prevent water from possibly squirting out into the room.

 Unscrew the water supply hose from the water tap.

Cold water supply connection

Connect the water supply hose to the cold water inlet with a 3/4" thread and check that you have tightened

it properly. If the hoses are new or have not been used for a long time,  ush them out with water, to be sure

that they are clean inside with all dirt removed. If you do not do this, you risk clogging up the water inlet and

damaging the appliance.

Hot water supply connection

You can also connect hot water to the dishwasher (supplied by the central system, heated by the heating

system), if the water temperature does not exceed 60 °C. This will shorten the washing cycle by 15 minutes and

the washing e ciency will be slightly reduced.

The connection must be carried out in the same way as for the cold water.

WARNING!

To prevent water from staying in the hose, close the water inlet into the dishwasher. (This does not

apply to dishwashers with the aqua-stop function.)

Connecting the drain hose

Insert the drain hose into the waste water pipe with a minimum diameter of 4 cm or leave it

lying in the sink and ensure that it is not bent or dented. Use a special plastic bracket supplied

with the appliance. The hose must be at a height of 50 to 100 cm above the ground. The loose end of the hose

must not be submerged in water so that reverse water  ow does not occur.

NOTE:

The hose must be at a height of 50 to 100 cm above the ground. The loose end must not be submerged

in water.

EN - 9

Draining water

 Connect the drain hose. The drain hose must be properly attached so that water does not leak. Check that

the hose is not knotted up or pinched.

Extending the hose

 If you need to extend the drain hose, you must use the same type of drain hose.

 The hose must not be longer than 4 meters. Otherwise the e ciency of the dishwasher would be reduced.

Built-in

This dishwasher is designed to be built-in. Adhere to all warnings and instructions contained in this user's manual

during installation.

Before installation check that the required dimensions of the dishwasher to be built-in correspond to the

dimensions of the installation location – see illustration below.

EN - 10

After connecting the inlet and drain hoses, slide the dishwasher into the installation area. Take care not to

damage, crimp, bend or otherwise impair any of the hoses.

ATTENTION!

Only remove the top cover if it is absolutely necessary for the installation into the built-in area.

The dimensions of some built-in areas may be higher and so the dishwasher will  t in with the top

cover attached.

Turning on the dishwasher

Before turning on the dishwasher, check the recommendation below.

 The dishwasher is levelled and properly seated.

 Is the inlet valve is open?

 Joints do not leak in the connection points.

 Cables are properly connected.

 Is the power source turned on?

 The water supply hose and the drain hose are not knotted up.

 You have removed all packaging material and all printed materials.

PART 5: BEFORE PUTTING INTO OPERATION

Before  rst use

Before you put your dishwasher into operation:

a) set water softening;

b) pour 1/2 litre of water into the salt compartment and  ll it up with salt;

c)  ll the rinsing aid compartment;

d)  ll the dishwashing detergent compartment.

Identifying water hardness

The dish washing e ciency of your dishwasher depends on the hardness of the water used. Therefore, your

dishwasher is equipped with a system which reduces water hardness at the main water inlet. The better the

system is set up the better the achieved washing e ciency. Your water supplier should provide you with

information about water hardness in your area or you may measure it yourself using a simple harness test,

a special testing strip (not included).

Remove

the test-

ing strip

(7. Exit from menu) and con rm with the con rm button.

NOTE:

Your water supplier will provide you with information about the hardness of your water.

CAUTION!

If your dishwasher does not have a water softening system, you can skip this chapter.

Adding salt into the salt container

Always use salt designed for dishwashers.

The salt compartment is located under the lower rack and you should re ll it in the following manner.

NOTE

 Use only salt speci cally designed for use in dishwashers! Any other kind of salt, which is not

speci cally designed for use in dishwashers, particularly table salt, would damage the softener

system in the dishwasher. Damage caused by the use of inappropriate salt is not covered by

the manufacturer's guarantee and the manufacturer takes no responsibility for any damages

caused.

 Add the salt before starting one of the full washing cycle programs. This will prevent salt

crystals or salt water from lying at the bottom of the dishwasher, where this could lead to

corrosion.

salt

a) Slide out the lower rack and then unscrew the lid of the salt compartment.

b) Before the  rst wash, pour water into the salt compartment.

EN - 15

c) Place the funnel (included accessory) on the opening of the compartment and pour 2 kg of salt into it.

• It is normal for a smaller amount of water to run out of the compartment.

d) After  lling the compartment screw the lid back on by turning it in the clockwise direction.

e) The salt warning indicator light will turn o within 2 - 6 days after the salt compartment has been re lled.

f) You should start a washing program immediately after the salt compartment has been re lled (we

recommended the rinse or quick wash program). Otherwise the salt water could damage the  ltration

system, pump and other important part of the dishwasher. This is not covered by the warranty.

NOTE

 Only re ll the salt compartment when the salt warning indicator light on the control panel

lights up. Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the warning indicator light may stay on

even after the salt compartment has been re lled.

 If there is no salt warning indicator light on the control panel (on some models), you can

estimate the amount after adding salt to the system by the number of cycles performed by the

dishwasher.

 If salt runs out anywhere, remove it by starting the rinse program or the quick wash program

(depending on the model).

Adding rinsing aid

Rinsing aid compartment

 The rinsing aid is released during the last rinse so that water drops do not remain on your dishes causing

stains. It also improves drying due to the fact that all the water  ows o the dishes. Your dishwasher is

designed to only be used with a liquid rinsing aid. The rinsing aid compartment is located on the inside

wall of the door next to the dishwashing detergent compartment.

 Fill up the compartment by opening it and pouring in the rinsing aid until the indicator goes completely

dark. The capacity of the rinsing aid compartment is approximately 110 ml.

NOTE:

Use only branded dishwasher rinsing aids. Never pour other mixtures (such as liquid detergents, etc.)

into the rinsing aid compartment. Otherwise the dishwasher may be damaged.

When should the rinsing aid be re lled?

If the rinsing aid compartment is empty, the relevant indicator light on the control panel will turn on indicating

the need to add rinsing aid. After  lling the compartment with rinsing aid the entire indicator is dark. As the

rinsing aid is gradually used up the point of the indicator becomes smaller. Never allow the amount of rinsing

aid to fall below 1/4 of the compartment volume.

NOTE

Wipe any spilled rinsing aid with a wiping cloth, so that excessive suds are not formed in the

following wash. Do not forget to put the lid back on before closing the dishwasher door.

EN - 16

Setting dial (rinse)

The rinsing aid compartment has six di erent settings. Its factory level setting is 3. If stains form on the dishes

or if there is a problem with drying the dishes, increase the released amount of the rinsing aid by removing

the lid and turning the dial to "4". If despite this step the dishes are not without stains after drying, adjust

the setting again to a higher level until the dishes are clean after drying. If rinsing aid residues remain on the

dishes, reduce the level to 1 – 2. The recommended setting is "3". (The value set by the manufacturer is "3".)

NOTE:

If there are water drops or scale stains on the dishes after the wash, increase the dosage. If there are

white stains or bluish layers on glasses or knife blades, lower the dosage.

Function of the detergent

Dishwashing detergents with their chemical additives are essential for the removal of soils, their decomposition

and removal from the dishwasher. For this purpose the majority of commercial quality dishwashing detergents

are suitable.

Dishwashing detergents

There are 3 types of dishwashing detergents:

1. containing phosphates and chlorine;

2. containing phosphates and without chlorine;

3. without phosphates and without chlorine.

New dishwashing detergents usually do not contain phosphates and so the softening function of the

phosphates is missing. In such a case we recommended the use of a softening salt even when the water

hardness is a mere 6°dH. If you use dishwashing detergents without phosphates and have hard water, this

leads to the frequent appearance of white stains on dishes and glasses. In such a case you will therefore

achieve better results if you add more dishwashing detergent. Chlorine-free dishwashing detergents whiten

only slightly. For this reason strong and colourful stains will not be completely removed. In such a case select

a program with a higher temperature.

Concentrated dishwashing detergents

Based on their chemical composition dishwashing detergents are divided into two basic types:

 standard, alkaline dishwashing detergents with caustic additives;

 less alkaline dishwashing detergents with natural enzymes.

Using "standard" washing programs in combination with concentrated dishwashing detergents reduces pollution

and is appropriate for your dishes. These programs are speci cally improved with enzymes, which are

contained in concentrated dishwashing detergents, that can dissolve soils. For this reason you can achieve the

same results with concentrated dishwashing detergents using a "standard" washing program, as you would

achieve only with the use of an "intensive" program.

EN - 17

Dishwashing tablets

The dissolving speed of various brands of dishwashing tablets may di er. For this reason some tablets may not

dissolve during the short programs and therefore fail to perform their cleaning function. So when using tablets

use the long programs to ensure the removal of all dishwashing detergent remains.

Dishwashing detergent compartment

You must  ll up the compartment before starting any washing cycle according to the instructions contained in

the dishwashing cycle table. Your dishwasher uses less dishwashing detergent and rinsing aid than an ordinary

dishwasher. Generally a single tablespoon of dishwashing detergent is su cient for a standard wash. For

more heavily soiled dishes you will need more dishwashing detergent. Always add the dishwashing detergent

immediately before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could become damp and subsequently not dissolve

completely.

NOTE

 If the lid is closed. Press the button. The lid will open.

 Always add the dishwashing detergent immediately before starting each washing cycle.

 Use only branded dishwashing detergents designed for dishwashers.

WARNING!

The dishwashing detergent is corrosive! Keep it out of children's reach.

Using the dishwashing detergent

Use only dishwashing detergent speci cally designed for use in dishwashers. Store the dishwashing detergent

in a dark and dry place.

Do not put dishwashing detergent powder into the compartment unless you intend to start the dishwasher.
