Using Your Dishwasher

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot 
on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated 
below.

BEFORE STARTING THE DISHWASHER

The  following  things  should  be  checked  before 
starting the dishwasher.

1. That the dishwasher is level and fixed properly.

2. That the inlet valve is open .

3. That there is no leakage at the connections of the 

conducts. 

4. The wires are tightly connected and the power is 

switched on.

5. That the inlet and drain hoses are not knotted or 

kinked.

6. All  packing  materials  should  be  taken  out  of  the 

dishwasher.

PRIOR TO USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

Before using your dishwasher for the first time: 

Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

The  rinse  aid  is  released  during  the  final  rinse  to 
prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, 
which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves 
drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your 
dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. The 
rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to 
the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the 
cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the 
level indicator turns completely black. The volume of 
the rinse aid container is about 140ml.

Function of the Rinse Aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, 
ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free 
drying.

WARNING! 

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill 
the  rinse  aid  dispenser  with  any  other  substances 
(e.g.  Dishwasher  cleaning  agent,  liquid  detergent). 
This would damage the appliance. 

When to refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

If  there  is  no  rinse-aid  warning  light  in  the  control 
panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the     
color of the optical level indicator  "C”  located next to 
the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole 
indicator will be dark. As the rinse-aid diminishes, the 
size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let 
the rinse aid get below 1/4 full.

How to fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

1.  To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the  "open" 

(left) arrow and lift it out.

2.  Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful 

not to overfill.  

3.  Replace  the  cap  by  inserting  it  aligned  with   

"open"  arrow  and  turning  it  to  the  closed  (right) 
arrow.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this 
could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills with a 
damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before 
you close dishwasher door.

ATTENTION!

 Clean up any rinse aid split during filling 

with  an  absorbent  cloth  to  avoid  excess  foaming 
during the next wash.

indicates the machine is out of order, please turn off 
the  main  power  and  water  supply  before  calling  for
