Positioning and levelling

1. Remove the appliance from all packaging and check

that it has not been damaged during transportation.

If it has been damaged, contact the retailer and do not
proceed any further with the installation process.

2. Check the dishwasher by placing it so that its sides or

back panel are in contact with the adjacent cabinets or

even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed
under a single worktop

*

 (

see the Assembly instruction

sheet

).

3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If

the floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be

adjusted until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of

inclination must not exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is

levelled correctly, it will be more stable and much less

likely to move or cause vibrations and noise while it is
operating.

. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the

appliance* on the central lower part of the dishwasher,

turning a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening

of 8 mm in a clockwise direction to increase the height
or in an anticlockwise direction to decrease the height.

Anti-condensation  strip

*

After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stick

the adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in

order to protect it from any condensation that may form.

 Keep this instruction manual in a safe place for

future reference. If the appliance is sold, given away or

moved, please ensure the manual is kept with the

machine, so that the new owner may benefit from the
advice contained within it.

 Please read this instruction manual carefully: it

contains important information regarding the safe
installation, use and maintenance of the appliance.

 If the appliance must be moved at any time, keep it

in an upright position; if absolutely necessary, it may be

tilted onto its back.

This appliance is intended to be used in household

and similar applications such as:

- staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working

environments;

- farm houses;

- by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type

environments;
- bed and breakfast type environments.

Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the appliance has been installed, immediately

before running the first wash cycle, completely fill the

salt dispenser with water and add only then

approximately 1 kg of salt (

see chapter entitled Rinse aid

and refined salt

). The water may overflow: this is normal

and is not a cause for concern. Select the water

hardness value (

see chapter entitled Rinse aid and

refined salt

).  - After the salt has been poured into the

machine, the LOW SALT indicator light

*

 switches off.

 If the salt container is not filled, the water softener

and the heating element may be damaged as a result.

*

 Only available in selected models.
