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.

4. 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.

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.
