If after all these checks, the problem persists, contact
your local Service Force Centre, quoting the model
and serial number. This information can be found on
the rating plate located on the right hand side of the
dishwasher door (see picture).

Protection against flooding

In order to prevent water floods, the machine has been
provided with two additional devices, having the
following characteristics:

1. In the water inlet hose (see "Water supply 

connections"). The device comes into operation as 
a result of any damage to the water inlet hose and 
stops the water inflow. It functions even with the 
machine off.

2. In the bottom of the machine: the device comes 

into operation as a result of any water leaks in the 
machine and it functions only with the machine on.

To repair the machine call the Service Centre.

Under no circumstances should you attempt

Repairs carried out by inexperienced 
persons may cause injury or serious
