[. . . ] Make sure that the plug on the appliance remains accessible after installation. Fuses and plugs This appliance should be used only on a socket with a minimum rating of 13 Amp. Our ready-fitted plug is already equipped with a 13 amp fuse which is BS 1362 ASTA approved. If the fuse cover is lost, do not use the plug until it is replaced. Installation Make sure that the plug fitted to the machine is compatible with the power supply socket. If it is not, get a suitably qualified person to fit the correct type, and to make sure that the cables to the mains socket are able to cope with the power rating of the appliance. [. . . ] When loading the lower basket, please ensure that the plates or others do not obstruct the detergent dispenser. The concentrated detergents, with reduced alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in conjunction with 50°C wash programmes, have a smaller impact on the environment and they protect the dishes and the dishwasher. The 50°C wash programmes purposely exploit the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes, allowing therefore, with the use of the concentrated detergents, to achieve the same results of the 65°C programmes but at a lower temperature. IMPORTANT Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty. Since not all detergents are the same the instructions on the boxes of detergent can vary. We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much detergent will not produce better results and is also a waste. Please note that using the "ALL in 1" combined detergents, the rinse aid and salt indicator lights (only used on selected models) are superfluous, so you must ignore the lights. If washing and/or drying problems occur, we recommend you return to use traditional separate products (salt, detergent and rinse agent). This will ensure that the water softener in the dishwasher operates correctly. In this case, we recommends that you: Combined detergents The amount of detergent to be used varies according to how dirty the dishes are and on the type of dishes to be washed. We advise using 20÷30 g of detergent in the wash section of detergent compartment (B). IMPORTANT Do not use an excessive amount of detergent and help limit damage to the environment at the same time. The detergents that also contain the rinse aid must be placed in the wash section of the detergent container. The dishwasher does not require special maintenance, because the tank is self-cleaning. Regularly wipe the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove any food remains or rinse aid. It is advisable to remove limestone deposits or dirt periodically, by doing an empty wash; pour a glass of vinegar on the bottom of the tank and select the light wash. If, in spite of the routine cleaning of the filters, you notice that the dishes or pans are not properly washed or rinsed, check that all the spray heads on the rotor arms (fig. to remove the upper rotor arm, turn it until it lines up with the stop marked by the arrow (fig. 1b) and, keeping it pushed in, unscrew it in a clockwise direction (to reassemble it repeat the same operation, but turn it anticlockwise). wash the rotor arms under a jet of water to clear any blockage in the spray heads; 3. when you have finished, refit the rotor arms in the same position, remembering to re-align the arrow and screw into position. Both the door lining and the tank lining are in stainless steel; however, should spots caused by oxidation occur, this is probably due to a high level of iron salts presents in the water. The spots can be removed with a mild abrasive agent; never use chlorine based materials, steel wool, etc. 19 1 1b What not to wash It should be remembered that not all dishes are suitable for washing in a dishwasher. We advise against using the dishwasher to wash items in thermoplastic, cutlery with wooden or plastic handles, saucepans with wooden handles, items in aluminium, crystal, leaded glass unless otherwise stated. It is therefore a good idea before loading the whole batch to wash just one of the items first so as to be sure that others like it will not fade.
