pressure;
- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;
- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.

Error messages.
Your dishwasher is equipped with a safety system which is able to
detect any operating anomalies.
These anomalies or faults are signalled by several codes consisting
of letters and numbers that flash up on the display. Make a note of
the error code that appears, turn the appliance off, turn off the
water tap and call for technical assistance.
Tap off alarm
If you have forgotten to turn on the water tap, your appliance
will remind you with a long series of prolonged beeps and the
wording
H2O
will flash up on the display. Turn the tap on and
the wash cycle will start up after a few minutes.
If you are not there when this signal appears, the appliance
will switch to alarm mode and the code
“A06”
will flash on the
display.
Turn the appliance off at the ON-OFF button, turn on the water
tap and wait approximately 20 seconds before turning the
appliance back on.
Re-select a wash cycle as indicated in the "Starting and setting
the cycle"paragraph and the appliance will start.
Clogged filter alarm
If the appliance is blocked and the code
“A05”
is flashing, this
means the filter is clogged by large particles of food residue.
Turn the display off by keeping the Stand-by button pressed.
Clean the filter thoroughly and reposition it in its seat as
illustrated on this page. Then turn it back on. Repeat the
programming operations and the appliance will start.
Water load solenoid valve malfunction alarm
If the code "
A02
" flashes,TURN the dishwasher OFF AND BACK
ON AGAIN after one minute. If the alarm persists, first turn off
the water tap to avoid any flooding and then cut off the electricity
supply and call for technical assistance.
If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not function
and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorised
service centre and provide them with the following information:
- the nature of the problem;
- the model type number (Mod. ...) and the serial number (S/N
....), which are indicated on the plate located on the side of
the inner part of the door.
Never call on unauthorised technicians and refuse to
allow parts to be installed that are not original spare
parts.

The filter assembly
If you want consistent good results from your dishwasher,
you need to clean the filter assembly.
The food particles are removed from the wash water,
allowing it to be recirculated during the cycle, filtered
perfectly. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the
larger food particles trapped inside the cup “
C
” and the
semi-circular filter
A
after each wash; pull the cup handle
upwards to remove them. Just rinse them under running
water.
The entire filter assembly should be cleaned thoroughly
once a month: cup C + semi-circular filter A + cylindrical
filter B. Rotate filter “B” anticlockwise to remove it.
For cleaning, use a non metallic brush.
Reassemble the filter parts (as shown in the figure) and
reinsert the whole assembly into the dishwasher. Position it
into its housing and press downwards.
The dishwasher is not to be used without filters. Improper
replacement of the filters may reduce the efficiency of the
wash and even damage your dishwasher.
