INSTALLING THE MACHINE
NOTE:
Aquastop water spout is used in some models.
In case of using Aquastop, a dangerous tension
exists. Do not cut Aquastop water spout. Do not
let it get folded or twisted.
WATER OUTLET HOSE
The water drain hose can be connected either
directly to the water drain hole or to the sink
outlet spigot. Using a special bent pipe (if
available), the water can be drained directly
into the sink via hooking the bent pipe over the
edge of the sink.
This connection should be at a minimum of 50
cm and and at a maximum of 110 cm from the
fl oor plane.
WARNING!
When a drain hose longer than 4 m is used, the dishes might remain dirty. In
that case, our company will not accept responsibility.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
The earthed plug of your machine should be connected to an earthed outlet
supplied by suitable voltage and current. If there is no earthing installation, have
a competent electrician carry out an earthing installation. In case of usage without
earthing installed, our company will not be responsible for any loss of usage that
might occur.
The indoor fuse current value should be 10-16 A.
Your machine is set according to 220-240 V. If the mains voltage in your location
is 110 V, connect a transformer of 110/220 V and 3000 W inbetween. The machine
should not be plugged in during positioning. Always use the coated plug supplied
with your machine. Running in low voltage will cause a decline in washing quality.
The machine’s electrical cable should be replaced by an authorised service or
an authorised electrician only. Failure to do so may lead to accidents. For safety
purposes, always make sure to disconnect the plug when a wash programme is
fi nished. In order not to cause an electric shock, do not unplug when your hands
are wet.
When disconnecting your machine from the mains supply, always pull from the plug.
Never pull the cord itself.
PRIOR TO USING THE MACHINE FOR THE FIRST TIME
•
Check whether the electricity and supply water specifi cations match the
values indicated by the installation instructions for the machine.
•
Remove all packaging materials inside the machine.
•
Set the water softener.
•
Add 1 kg salt into the salt compartment and fi ll with water up to a level at
which it will almost overfl ow.
•
Fill the rinse aid compartment.
PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE
THE IMPORTANCE OF WATER DECALCIFICATION
For a good washing function, the dishwasher needs soft, i.e. less calcareous water.
Otherwise, white lime residues will remain on the dishes and the interior equipment.
This will negatively aff ect your machine’s washing, drying and shining performance.
When water fl ows through the softener system, the ions forming the hardness are
removed from the water and the water reaches the softness required to obtain the
best washing result. Depending on the level of hardness of the infl owing water,
these ions that harden the water accumulate rapidly inside the softener system.
Therefore, the softener system has to be refreshed so that it operates with the same
performance also during the next wash. For this purpose, dishwasher salt is used.
•
Use the pre-wash programme only whenever necessary.
•
Place such hollow items as bowls, glasses and pots into the machine in
such a way that they will face down.
•
You are recommended not to load into your machine any dishes diff erent
or more than indicated.
ITEMS NOT SUITABLE FOR DISHWASHING:
•
Cigarette ashes, candle leftovers, polish, paint, chemical substances, iron-
alloy materials;
•
Forks, spoons and knives with wooden or bone, or ivory or nacre-coated
handles; glued items, items soiled with abrasive, acidic or base chemicals.
•
Plastic items that are not heat-resistant, copper or tin-coated containers;
•
Aluminium and silver objects (they may discolour, become dull)
•
Certain delicate glass types, porcelains with ornamental printed patterns
as they fade even after the fi rst wash; certain crystal items as they lose
their transparency over time, adhered cutlery that is not heat-resistant,
lead crystal glasses, cutting boards, items manufactured with synthetic
fi bre;
•
Absorbent items as sponges or kitchen rags are not suitable for
dishwashing.
WARNING!
Take care to buy dishwasher-proof sets in your future purchases.
INSTALLING THE MACHINE
POSITIONING THE MACHINE
When determining the place to put your machine on, take care to choose a place
where you can easily load and unload your dishes. Do not put your machine in any
location where there is the probability for the room temperature to fall below 0°C.
Before positioning, take the machine out of its packaging by following the warnings
located on the package. Position the machine close to a water tap or drain. You
need to site your machine, taking into consideration that its connections will not be
altered once they are made.
Do not grip the machine by its door or panel in order to move it.
Take care to leave a certain clearance from all sides of the machine so that you can
comfortably move it back and forth during cleaning. Make sure that the water inlet
and outlet hoses do not get squeezed while positioning the machine. Also, make
sure that the machine does not stand on the electrical cable. Adjust the machine’s
adjustable feet so that it can stand level and balanced. Proper positioning of the
machine ensures problem-free opening and closing of its door. If the door of you
machine does not close properly, check if the machine is stable on the fl oor it stands;
if not, adjust the adjustable feet and ensure its stable position.
WATER CONNECTION
Be sure that the indoor plumbing is suitable for installing a dishwasher. Also, we
recommend that you fi t a fi lter at the entrance of your place or apartment so as to
avoid any damage to your machine because of any contamination (sand, clay, rust
etc.) that might be occasionally carried in through the mains water supply or the
indoor plumbing, and to forestall such complaints as yellowing and formation of
deposits after washing.
WATER INLET HOSE
Do not use the water inlet hose of your old machine, if any. Use
the new water inlet hose supplied with your machine instead. If
you are going to connect a new or long-unused water inlet hose
to your machine, run water through it for a while before making
the connection. Connect the water inlet hose directly to the water
inlet tap.The pressure supplied by the tap should be at a minimum
of 0.03 Mpa and and at a maximum of 1 Mpa.
If the water pressure is above 1 Mpa, a pressure-relief valve should
be fi tted inbetween. After the connections are made, the tap
should be turned on fully and checked for water tightness. For
the safety of your machine, make sure to always turn off the water
inlet tap after each wash programme is fi nished.
