ARISTON DISHWASHER - Instructions for installation and use
D
ISHWASHER
Safety within your home
Your dishwasher was built in accordance with the strictest international safety regulations. They protect
you and your family. Read the instructions and information contained in this manual: they will provide
you with useful hints as to installation, use and maintenance safety. To avoid nasty surprises.
1. Dispose of the packaging
material carefully (follow the
instructions on how to divide
your rubbish up provided by
your local Council)
2. After removing the
packaging, check to make
sure your appliance is intact.
If in doubt, contact a qualified
professional.
3. Your dishwasher must only be
used by adults and for washing
household dishes, according to
the instructions included in
this manual. Do not touch the
appliance with wet hands or
feet or barefoot.
4. We discourage the use of
extension leads and multiple
plugs. If the electricity supply
wire is not long enough, then
have it replaced with one of
the correct length and
remember that it should be
free of bends or dangerous
kinks.
5. If the appliance is not operating
properly or if maintenance
operations are necessary,
disconnect the dishwasher
from the mains power supply
(unplug it!).
6. Keep children away from the
dishwasher when it is open and
keep detergents out of their
reach.
7. Your dishwasher is not to be
installed outdoors, not even if
the area is covered by a roof:
it is extremely dangerous to
leave it exposed to rain and
thunderstorms.
8. Do not touch the heating
element during or straight
after a wash cycle.
9. Do not lean or sit on the door
when it is open, as this could
overturn the dishwasher.
10. If the appliance malfunctions,
turn off the water inlet tap and
disconnect the plug from the
wall socket. Then try
consulting the section entitled
"I you have a problem, read
this". If you cannot resolve the
problem, then call the service
centre.

Error messages
Your dishwasher is equipped with
a safety system which is able to
detect any operating anomalies.
These anomalies are reported by
one or two wash cycle indicator
lights "M" flashing rapidly. Take a
note of which lights are flashing,
turn the appliance off and call for
technical assistance.
Tap off alarm
If you have forgotten to turn the
water tap on, your appliance will
remind you of this by sounding a
few short beeps for a few minutes.
Turn the tap on and your appliance
will start up again after a few min-
utes. Were you to be absent when
these beeps are sounded, the ap-
pliance will be blocked automati-
cally
and wash cycle 2 and 3
indicator lights (daily and soak)
will flash rapidly. Turn the appliance
off at the ON-OFF button, turn on
the water tap and wait approxi-
mately 20 seconds before turning
the appliance back on.
Re-select a wash cycle as indi-
cated in the "Selecting the wash
cycle" paragraph and the appliance
will start.
Clogged filter alarm
If the appliance is blocked and
wash cycle1 and 3 indicator lights
(intensive and soak) flash rapidly,
this means the filter is clogged by
large particles of food residue. Turn
the appliance off, clean the filter
thoroughly and reposition it in its
seat as illustrated on page 21. Then
turn the appliance back on.
Re-select a wash cycle as indi-
cated in the "Selecting the wash
cycle" paragraph and the appliance
will start.
Troubleshooting
You have checked
everything, but the
dishwasher still doesn't
work and the problem
persists?

the services of
unauthorised

If indicator light 2 (Daily wash)
