2. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
2.1 Technical data
You can find the technical data of each appliance at the adhesive label of the
dishwasher.
2.2 Instructions for the dishwasher’s regular operation
The appliance is exclusively used to clean dishes, cups, glasses, silverware, etc.
following their use during lunches/dinners.
You should pay special attention that the items to be washed are suitably placed
for dishwashing.
Silverware should be cleaned from food residues, if not washed right after lunch
/ dinner (colouring and spots from certain foodstuffs).
Do not wash in this appliance items which has been in contact with acids, mineral
oil, grease, gasoline or colours and solvents (industrial chemicals).
2.3 Preparation of dishes for washing
Do not let food residues dry onto the dishes. In order to avoid filter blockage as
well as the cleaning water to become dirty quickly, you should remove large food
residues, olive pips, lemon peels, tooth picks, etc., before you place the dishes in
the basket.
We recommend you to leave in water for a while or rinse the glassware that has
food residues dried on.
2.4 Filling of basket
Put glasses, cups, large plates, etc. with the
opening facing down in the anticipated baskets.
Do not pile one on top of the other.
Glasses should not touch each other (damage in glass,
stains due to contact).
Place cutlery in the appropriate basket made of synthetic
material, with the handle facing down.

Silverware may be placed freely on the levelled plastic basket.
In any case, you should avoid overloading the basket.
Water supply hoses should remain free (not blocked or stretched).
2.5 Manual filling of detergent
The detergent to be used should be suitable for dishwashers. After the
recommended operating temperature is accomplished, you may put the detergent
directly into the dispenser.
If the dishwasher has an integrated detergent pump, we put the pump’s elastic
pipe indicated as DETERGENT in the detergent dispenser.
Use exclusively detergent with little foam effect.
We recommend that you use detergent and rinse aid from the same manufacturer.
ATTENTION:
Do not use detergent for hand-wash.
The correct detergent dosage depends on the water hardness and the amount of
dirt on the dishes. Follow the dosage information of
the detergent’s manufacturer.
Less detergent quantity affects negatively the washing
result, while more detergent quantity does not present
better results, but rather more consumption and envi-
ronmental pollution.
2.6 Rinse-aid feeder
The dishwashers have an automatic rinse aid feeder.
Put the elastic pipe indicated as “RINSE AID” in the
storage compartment.
The feeder is adjusted from the manufacturer’s premises
at its maximum value and may be adjusted accordingly -
depending on water hardness, how dirty the dishes are, and
the detergent used - following the successful installation of
the dishwasher.
Turning the adjustment screw clockwise, the flow is reduced
