Ecological hints  
To save water and energy and help protect  
the environment, we recommend that you  
follow these hints:  
When a unit is no longer being used:  
• Ensure that the water softener is correctly  
adjusted.  
• Pull the mains plug out of the  
mains socket.  
• Do not prewash under running water.  
• Cut off the mains cable and the  
mains plug and dispose of them.  
• Dispose of the door catch. This  
prevents children from trapping  
themselves inside and endangering  
their lives.  
• Select the washing programme to suit the  
nature and degree of the soil on the  
dishes.  
• Do not use more detergent, dishwasher  
salt and rinse aid than is recommended in  
these operating instructions and by the  
manufacturer of the respective product.  
Half load: This function is useful and  
economical when the basket are not fully

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 (°TH) and  
mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit  
for the hardness of water).  
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.  
• Check if the factory set of the water  
softener complies with the water  
hardness in your area. If not, adjust the  
level of the water softener.

The lower basket  
The lower basket is designed to take pots,  
pans, lids, dishes, salad bowls and cutlery.  
Serving dishes and large lids should be  
arranged around the edge of the basket,  
ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely.

The cutlery basket  
Warning! Knives with long blades,  
stored in an upright position, are a  
potential hazard. Long and/or sharp  
items of cutlery such as carving knives  
must be positioned horizontally in the  
upper basket. Take care when  
loading or unloading sharp items such  
as knives. Forks and spoons should  
be placed in the removable cutlery  
basket with the handles facing  
downwards and the knives with their  
handles facing upwards  
The upper basket  
The upper basket is designed for plates  
(dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up  
to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and  
glasses.  
Arrange items on and underneath the cup  
racks so that water can reach all surfaces.  
Avoid to put plates in the first three sectors  
in the front part of the basket. Make sure  
the plates tilt forwards.  
Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent  
them from sticking together.  
For best results we recommend you use the  
cutlery grid. If the size and dimensions of the  
cutlery do not allow the use of the grid, this  
can be easily removed.  
Glasses with long stems can be placed  
upside down in the cup racks.  
For taller items, the cup racks can be folded  
upwards.

appliance door.  
Caution! When the basket is in the  
higher position do not put cups on  
the cup racks.  
Warning! Always close the  
appliance door after loading the  
baskets. An open door can be a  
hazard.

Unloading the appliance  
• Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. The  
dishes should therefore be allowed to  
cool down before removing from the  
appliance.  
• Water may appear on the sides and the  
door of the appliance as the stainless steel  
will eventually become cooler than the  
dishes.  
• 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.

Installation  
• Position the appliance next to a water tap  
and a drain.  
Warning! It is dangerous to alter  
the specifications or attempt to  
modify the appliance in any way.  
Levelling of the appliance  
Warning! This appliance is heavy.  
Care should be taken when moving  
it.  
Good levelling is essential for correct closure  
and sealing of the appliance door.  
When the appliance is correctly levelled, the  
door will not catch on either side of the  
cabinet.  
Warning! Care must be taken to  
ensure that the appliance does not  
stand on the electrical supply cable.  
If the appliance door does not close  
correctly, loosen or tighten the adjustable  
feet until the level of the appliance is perfect.  
Warning! Any electrical or  
Caution! Carefully follow the  
instructions on the enclosed template

plumbing work required to install this  
appliance must be carried out by a  
qualified electrician or plumber.  
Unpacking  
• Remove all packaging before positioning  
the appliance.  
Insert the appliance after the adjustment of  
the appliance level. When inserting the  
appliance, ensure that the water inlet and  
drain hoses are not kinked or squashed.  
24  
 
During all operations that involve  
accessibility to internal components the  
appliance must be unplugged.  
Be sure that once the appliance has been  
installed, it is easily accessible for the service  
engineer in the event that a repair is  
required.  
Therefore make sure, that the counter it is  
fixed under, is suitably secured to a fixed  
structure (e.g. adjacent kitchen unit cabinets,  
wall).  
Fixing to the adjacent  
units  
The appliance must be secured against  
tilting.  
Water connection  
This appliance has been fitted with safety  
Water inlet connection  
features which will prevent the water used in  
the appliance from returning back into the  
drinking water system. This appliance  
complies with the applicable plumbing  
regulations.  
This appliance must be connected to a cold  
water supply.  
For making the connection itself, the  
coupling nut fitted to the appliance inlet hose  
is designed to screw onto a 3/4" gas thread  
spout or to a purpose made quick-coupling  
tap such as the Press-block.  
The water pressure must be within the limits  
given in the ‘Technical data’. Your local  
Water Authority will advise you on the  
average mains pressure in your area.  
The water inlet hose must not be kinked,  
crushed, or entangled when it is being  
connected.  
The appliance features inlet and drain hoses  
which can be turned either to the left or the  
right to suit the installation by means of the  
locknut. The locknut must be correctly fitted  
to avoid water leaks.  
If the appliance is connected to new pipes or  
pipes which have not been used for a long  
time, you should run the water for a few  
minutes before connecting the inlet hose.  
Caution! Do not use inlet and drain  
hoses which have previously been  
used on another appliance.  
Water drain connection  
The end of the drain hose can be connected  
in the following ways:  
• To the sink outlet spigot, securing it to the  
underside of the work surface. This will  
prevent waste water from the sink  
running into the appliance.  
• To a stand pipe provided with venthole,  
minimum internal diameter 4 cm.  
Download from Www.Somanuals.c2om5. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Our appliances are supplied with a security  
device to protect against the return of dirty  
water back into the appliance. If the spigot  
of your sink has a "no return valve"  
max 85 cm  
incorporated this can prevent the correct  
draining of your appliance. We therefore  
advise you to remove it.  
min 40 cm  
When connecting the drain hose to an  
under sink trap spigot, the entire plastic  
membrane (A) must be removed. Failure to  
remove all the membrane will result in food  
particles building up over time eventually  
blocking the appliance drain hose spigot.  
The drain hose can face either to the right  
or left of the appliance.  
Ensure the drain hose is not bent or  
squashed as this could prevent or slow  
down the discharge of water.  
The sink plug must not be in place when the  
appliance is draining as this could cause the  
water to syphon back into the appliance.  
If you use a drain hose extension, the  
internal diameter must be no smaller than  
the diameter of the hose provided.  
Likewise the internal diameter of the  
couplings used for connections to the waste  
outlet must be no smaller than the diameter  
of the hose provided.

Electrical connection  
The manufacturer accepts no liability  
for failure to observe the following  
safety precautions.  
Warning! Safety standards require  
the appliance to be earthed.  
Prior to using the appliance for the  
first time, ensure that the rated  
voltage and type of supply on the  
rating plate match that of the supply  
where the appliance is to be installed.  
The fuse rating is also to be found on  
the rating plate.  
Always plug the mains plug into a  
correctly installed shockproof socket.  
Multi-way plugs, connectors and  
extension cables must not be used.  
This could constitute a fire hazard  
through overheating.  
If necessary, have the domestic wiring  
system socket replaced. In case that  
the electrical cable has to be  
replaced, contact your local repair  
agent.  
The plug must be accessible after the  
appliance has been installed.  
Never unplug the appliance by pulling  
on the cable. Always pull the plug.  
The appliance is supplied with a 13  
amp plug attached. Use a 13 amp  
ASTA approved (BS 1362) fuse if it is  
necessary to change the fuse in the  
plug supplied.
