Troubleshooting

GB

It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does not

function properly. Before calling for assistance, Iet us see what

can be done first: have you forgotten to press one of the buttons

or to perform an essential operation?

The Dishwasher Does Not Start

Have you checked whether:

- the plug is pushed into the socket correctly;

- the power is on in the house;

- the door is closed properly;

- the ON-OFF switch is on "ON";

- the water supply is turned on.

The Dishwasher Does Not Load Water

Have you checked whether:

- the water is turned on and the hose is connected properly;

- the water supply to the house is on and has sufficient pressure;

- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;

- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.

The Dishes Are Not Clean

Have you checked whether:

- the water is turned on and the hose is connected properly;

- the water supply to the house is on and has sufficient pressure;

- the water supply hose is crimped or bent;

- the filter for the water supply hose is clogged.

The Dishwasher Does Not Drain

Have you checked whether:

- the drain hose is crimped or bent.

Lime Deposits or a White Film Form on the Dishes

Have you checked whether:

- the lid to the salt container is closed properly;

- the rinse aid dosage is correct.

Error Messages

The dishwasher is equipped with a safety system that is able to

detect operating problems and malfunctions. These malfunctions

are signalled by the rapid blinking of one of the "D" program LEDs.

Only in the case where the indicator light for the soak cycle (see

table for cycles) blinks rapidly should you cancel the cycle as

described in the section entitled, "Changing a Cycle while Under-

way." Then check to make sure that there is water in the mains

and that the tap is turned on. If the message continues, call for

technical assistance, indicating which message appeared.

If any of the other indicator lights begins to blink rapidly, turn off

the appliance and call for technical assistance, indicating which

light began to blink.

If, despite all these checks, the dishwasher still does not function

and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest authorized ser-

vice 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 unauthorized technicians and refuse to

allow parts to be installed that are not original spare

parts.

Installation

GB

Positioning the Appliance

Position the appliance in the desired location. The back should

rest against the wall behind it, and the sides, along the adjacent

cabinets or wall. The dishwasher is equipped with water supply

and drain hoses that can be positioned to the right or the left to

facilitate proper installation.

Levelling the Appliance

Once the appliance is positioned, adjust the feet (screw them in

or out) to adjust the dishwasher, making it level. In any case, the

appliance should not be inclined more than 2˚. If the appliance is

level, it will help ensure proper performance.

Cold Water Connection

Connect the cold water supply hose to a threaded 3/4(gas)

connector, inserting the small filter supplied with the dishwasher

and making sure that it is fastened tightly in place (see Fig.2).

Some models are fitted with an "Aquastop" water supply hose

(see Fig.1) in which the small filter is already housed in the

threaded end.

If the water pipes are new or have not been used for an extended

period of time, let the water run to make sure that the water is

clear and free of impurities. If this precaution is not taken, there

is a risk that the water inlet can get blocked and damage the

appliance.

The connection must be made to the hot water line following the

same procedures as those for the connection to the cold water

line.

Anti-Flooding Protection

The dishwasher is equipped with a system that stops the supply

of water in the event of a problem with the water supply hose, or

leaks within the unit, in order to prevent damage to your home. If

for any reason the box containing the electrical components hap-

pens to get damaged, remove the plug for the appliance from

the socket immediately. In order to guarantee that the anti-flood-

ing feature operates properly, the "A" box with water supply hose

must be attached to the water supply tap as shown in Fig .1. No

other type of connection is acceptable.

Hot Water Connection

The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the

house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as

long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60

.

In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15

minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced.

Fig.2

Drain Hose Connection

Insert the drain hose into a drain pipe with a minimum diameter

of 4cm, or let it run into the sink, making sure to avoid bending

or crimping it. Use the special plastic support that comes with

the appliance (see Fig.3). The free end of the hose must be at a

height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in

water.

Attention:

The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the

wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to

spill outside the drain.

The water supply hose must not,under any circumstances,be

cut,as it contains electrical parts which are live.If the length of

the hose is not adequate to make a proper connection,the hose

must be replaced with one which is long enough.This hose is

available upon request from specialised retailers and service cen-

tres.

Fig.1

Electrical Connection

After making sure that the voltage and frequency values for the

current in the home correspond to those on the rating plate

(located on the stainless steel inner door of the appliance) and

that the electrical system is correct for the maximum voltage on

the rating plate, insert the plug into an electrical socket which is

earthed properly (the earthing of the appliance is a safety re-

quirement mandated by law).

If the electrical socket to which the appliance must be connected

is not appropriate for the plug, replace the plug ,rather than us-

ing adpators or the like as they could cause overheating and

burns.

Caution:

The dishwasher plug must be accessible even when the appli-

ance is installed as a built-in unit so that maintence can be done

safety.
