Safety information  
Before installing and first using the dishwasher, read this instruction booklet carefully, including its hints  
and warnings. To avoid unnecessary mistakes and accidents, it is important to ensure that all people using  
the dishwasher are thoroughly familiar with its operation and safety features. Save these instructions and  
make sure they remain with the dishwasher if it is moved or sold, so that everyone using it through its life  
can be properly informed on appliance use and safety.

If you take any dishes out of the dishwasher before the  
end of the dishwashing cycle, it is extremely important  
to rinse them thoroughly under running water to remove  
any remaining detergent.  
The water safety system protects against water damages.  
The following requirements must be fulfilled:  
Water connection should be made via an easily

3. Wipe off any spillage carefully to prevent excessive  
foaming during the next wash programme.  
Spray arm (1)  
It is important to keep all the holes in the spray arm clear.  
A clogged hole can seriously affect washing efficiency.  
If the spray arm needs cleaning, unscrew the nut anti-  
clockwise, remove the washer and lift off the spray arm.  
Clear the holes and shake out any food remnants.  
4. Close the lid and press until it locks again.  
Do not fill the rinse aid dispenser with liquid  
detergent.  
Zanussi recommends the use of Finish dish-  
washer detergent and Rinse Aid.  
Coarse strainer/microfilter (2)  
The purpose of the coarse strainer is to catch large objects  
such as a cocktail stick and pieces of eggshell. Make sure  
that the strainer is always clean. Turn the coarse strainer  
anti-clockwise. Lift it out and rinse it under running water  
whenever necessary.  
Water softener (6)  
This dishwasher is equipped with a water softener for hard  
water. The lime in hard water causes white deposits to  
occur on dishes and to the interior of the dishwasher.  
To prevent this, the water has to pass through a special  
container where the hardness is removed.  
Fine filter (3)  
It is just as important to keep this filter clean. A dirty or  
clogged filter will always impair washing efficiency.  
The fine filter can easily be lifted out for cleaning when  
you have removed the coarse strainer.  
Since the water softener uses dishwasher salt, you will  
have to refill the salt container after a certain number of  
dishwasher cycles.  
It is extremely important, that the salt  
container is filled up with the dishwasher  
salt before using the dishwasher for the  
first time.  
Detergent dispenser (4)  
Open the lid to the dispenser by pressing the lid catch  
towards the compartment. Consult the instructions on the  
detergent packet, fill the compartment accordingly and  
close the lid. Remember that the instructions usually refer  
to full-size dishwashers, for example when using detergent  
tablets, it is sufficient to use just half a tablet. Pre-wash  
detergent is poured into the smaller compartment to the  
left when needed. This detergent is used during the pre-  
rinsing. Make sure that nothing prevents the lid from  
opening.  
The  
indicator light on the control panel is lit when the  
container requires refilling.  
1. Unscrew the filler cap to the salt container anti-  
clockwise.  
2. Fill the salt container with water (only the first  
time).  
3. Fill the container with dishwasher salt, using the  
funnel supplied.  
Only use detergents specially designed for  
dishwashers.  
4. Remove the funnel and wipe off any spillage  
around the filler opening.  
Rinse aid dispenser (5)  
5. Screw the filler cap back properly in place.  
Use of rinse aid will result in cleaner and faster drying of  
the load, since it helps water and residues to run off.  
Too much rinse aid may result in streakiness, too little  
may cause white spots. The dispenser holds about 150 ml.  
This is enough for approx. 60 wash cycles, depending  
on the dosage setting. Adjust the dosage setting according  
to the hardness of the water.  
The water softener is now ready for the first load of dishes.  
Always make sure that there is dishwasher salt in the  
container, which holds about 1 litre.  
How to adjust the water softener, see chapter ”Adjusting  
the water softener”.  
Only use special salt for dishwashing  
machines, ordinary domestic salt, especially  
table salt, can damage the water softener.  
You can set the dosage between 1 - 6, the appli-  
ance is factory set to 1.  
Begin at the lowest dosage setting and increase  
if necessary by turning the setting arrow with e.g.  
the handle of a spoon.  
The amount of rinse aid can be checked trough the lens  
on the dispenser. When the lens is clear, requires refilling  
of rinse aid.  
1. Open the lid to the dispenser by pressing the lid  
catch towards the compartment and lift the lid.  
2. Fill up with rinse aid; do not overfill.

Adjusting the water softener  
To prevent limescaling on the dishes and to the interior of the  
dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft water.  
Contact your local Water Authority to find the  
exact water hardness level for your area.  
This dishwasher is equipped with a water softener, where tap-  
water which is harder than 4 °d (german degree) is softened.  
The water softener has 10 settings:  
Adjust the water softener according to the table below for the  
water hardness level for your area.

2) Consumption figures and performance is according to the Energy Save programme cycle.  
3) Prerinse is used if you want to wait until you have a full load. This cycle rinses the load and keeps it moist,  
making the main wash easier later on. No detergent should be used.  
All programmes begin with a drain.  
Dishwashing detergent in tablet form is not suitable for use in the Quick programme cycle because  
some tablets cannot develop their full cleaning power during short programmes.

Loading and unloading the dishwasher  
How to load the dishes  
Baskets  
The illustration shows the dishwasher loaded with six  
place settings. Your own dishes are not likely to be  
identical to this load, but if you follow the advice below  
we are sure you will be pleased with the results.  
Main basket  
Cutlery basket  
The cup shelves can be placed in two different  
levels.  
Always place glasses, cups and bowls upside down.  
Incline deep dishes (soup plates etc.) so that the  
water can run off when drying.  
Make sure that the dishes do not rest against each  
other. This is particularly important in regard to the  
cutlery basket - nested spoons, etc. simply cannot be  
properly washed. The water must get at all the soiled  
surfaces.  
Make sure that cutlery with slender handles and other  
items do not protrude through the openings in the  
basket and prevent the spray arm from rotating.  
Never put silver and stainless steel objects together.  
When these metals come into contact with each other  
a chemical reaction occurs which stains the silver.  
China with a pattern applied on top of the glaze may  
not be suitable for machine washing as the colours  
may fade and lose their lustre. The same applies to  
cutlery with wooden or plastic handles.  
Make sure you always buy articles that are  
dishwasher proof.  
Silver and aluminum items tend to discolour when  
washed. Food remnants from egg and mustard often  
causes discolourations and stains on silver. Make sure  
to rinse off and remove food remnants on silver if it is  
not washed immediately after it has been used.  
Not all plastic articles are machine washable. If you  
are in doubt as to whether your plasticware can be  
machine washed, we suggest you check by washing  
a single item or else wash them by hand.  
When washing delicate items, select the programme  
with the lower wash temperature.  
Substances such as ketchup containing strong colouring  
agents can cause temporary discolouration to the  
interior of the dishwasher.  
Do not place sharp knives with their points  
upwards. It is much safer to lay them  
horizontally in the main basket.  
Unloading  
Hot dishes are sensitive to knocks. Always let the dishes  
cool down before unloading.  
The dishes dry faster if the door is opened  
slightly for a short time once the programme  
has finished.  
Use care when opening the door as hot  
steam may escape.

running water.  
Protecting the dishwasher against  
freezing  
The dishwasher must not be used without the  
filters. Incorrect repositioning of the filters will  
produce poor washing results.  
If the dishwasher is placed in an environment  
where the temperature sometimes falls below  
0° C, there is a risk that the small amount of  
water which remains inside the parts of the  
dishwasher will freeze and damage it.  
To prevent this you should:  
Cleaning of the filters is vital to ensure correct  
operation of the dishwasher.  
Cleaning the spray arm  
The holes in the spray arm must be kept free of scraps  
for the efficiency of the washing action.  
1. Turn off the water supply to the dishwasher.  
2. Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.  
Inspect the spray arm regularly. When thorough cleaning  
is necessary, remove the spray arm by unscrewing the  
nut anti-clockwise, remove the washer and lift off the  
spray arm.  
3. Make sure that there is dishwasher salt in the  
salt container for the water softener.  
The appliance is only to be used and stored  
indoors at normal room temperature. The manu-  
facture is not responsible for any frost damage.  
Wash the spray arm with hot soapy water using a stiff  
brush if necessary to remove scraps.  
Re-assemble carefully, making sure the nut is secure.  
Cleaning the cabinet  
Wipe the outside of the cabinet and control panel regularly  
with a soft damp cloth. When necessary, use washing up  
liquid to remove stubborn marks, rinse with a damp cloth  
and rub up with a soft duster.  
Never use abrasive cleaners which could damage the  
surface, ie: scouring pads or solvents (acetone, trichlori-  
ethylene, etc).  
If the dishwasher is not going to be used for some  
time, take the following precautions:  
1. Unplug the dishwasher and turn off the water  
supply.  
2. Fill up the rinse aid container.  
3. Make sure the tub is clean by carrying out a  
wash programme (without any crockery) using  
Finish Dishwasher cleaner, then dry the inside  
thoroughly.  
4. Leave the door ajar.

Use  
This dishwasher is designed solely for washing household  
utensils suitable for washing in a dishwasher. Using it for  
other purposes may damage it and invalidate the guarantee.  
Positioning  
The dishwasher is intended to be installed on a kitchen  
drainer, worktop or built-in. To function properly, make  
sure that the appliance is level. Its height can be adjusted  
with the adjustable feets (5 mm each). See the illustration  
for built-in measurements.

Installation  
Water inlet  
The dishwasher is equipped with safety features  
which are to prevent the water from going back  
to the fresh water system. These features are ac-  
cording to current water technical safety regulations.  
The dishwasher should be permanently plumbed into a  
separate cold water supply.  
The water pressure must be within the limits given in the  
technical specifications, as it will not function correctly if  
pressure is outside these specifications.  
Your local Water Authority will advise you on the average  
mains pressure in your area. Where the water is supplied  
from a cold water cistern you can work out the pressure  
yourself by measuring the vertical distance (or ‘Head’)  
between the dishwasher’s inlet hose and the outlet from  
the cold water storage cistern; allowing .86 psi for every 2  
feet under normal conditions.  
We would advise you to have a shut-off valve or stop-  
cock in the water supply pipe close to the dishwasher  
and accessible for easy use. This should be turned off  
when the appliance is not in use. Connect the inlet hose  
to a tap with a 3/4" pipe thread.  
The inlet hose must not be joined onto any form of exten-  
sion hose. If it is too short, the entire hose must be repla-  
ced with a longer high-pressure hose, specially designed  
for the purpose. The end of the hose, which is connected  
to the dishwasher can be turned in any direction. Loosen  
the retaining nut, turn the hose, then retighten the nut.  
Check that the nut and all other connections  
are tight before the machine is moved into  
position.  
Use only the inlet hose supplied to the dish-  
washer. Do not reuse an inlet hose used with  
a previous machine.  
Water drainage  
To protect the dishwasher against water damage  
it is equipped with a water safety system. In the  
event of a fault the drain-pump starts automatically  
and the remaining water inside the dishwasher is  
pumped out.  
The water safety system also works when the  
dishwasher is switched off. However the dish-  
washer must be connected electrically.  
Place the discharge hose over the sink as illustrated.  
It must not at any point be higher up than 75 cm over the  
surface which the dishwasher is standing on. If it runs  
higher, operation of the dishwasher might be impaired.  
It is also important to ensure that the inside diameter of the  
hose is not less than 13 mm at any point. If the discharge  
hose is too long, it can easily be cut to the right length.  
1. Cut the hose to a suitable length, using a  
sharp knife.  
2. Fit the elbow supplied onto the end of the hose.

Power supply  
The dishwasher is supplied with a lead and electrical  
plug for connection to a 230 V, 13 A earthed wall  
socket. Before any work is carried out on the  
dishwasher, it must be isolated from the electric  
mains supply, for example by removing the plug  
from the wall socket.  
Permanent electrical installation must be  
carried out by an authorised electrician or  
competent person.  
WARNING: THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED.  
The manufacturer declines any liability should  
this safety measure not be observed.  
The appliance should not be connected to the  
electrical supply by means of an extension cable.  
If the plug that is fitted to your appliance is not  
suitable for your socket outlet, it must be cut off and  
the appropriate plug fitted.
