Proper installation is essential to the good operation of the appliance. Some of the data required for
installation of the appliance are given on the nameplate on its RH body panel, and a copy is included
on the cover page of this manual.
The appliance may only be installed by qualified persons authorised to do so.

For Australia and New Zealand this machine must be installed in accordance with
AS/NZS3500.1

 INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR DISHWASHERS UK

2.2 Positioning
• Check that there are no objects or materials in the installation area which may
be damaged by the steam emitted by the appliance during operation, or if there
are, make sure they are properly protected.
• Before positioning the appliance, set up the electrical power supply, water
supply and drain connections
• The floor or build-in unit must be rated to support the weight of the appliance
• To ensure that it is stable, level the appliance with its four feet.
• The appliance is intended for fixed installation only; any other approaches must
be agreed with and approved by the manufacturer.
• Remove the protective film from its body panels before operating the
dishwasher.

2.3 Electrical connection

• The power supply must be fitted with a omnipolar circuit breaker (master power
switch) to break all contacts including neutral, with a contact gap of at least 3
mm and thermal cutout or fuses, which must be set or rated to the power
indicated on the machine's nameplate.
• The master power switch must be fitted to the power line in the vicinity of the
installation and may be connected to only one machine at a time.
• The mains voltage and frequency must match the nameplate ratings.
• The installation must include a grounding system conforming with established
electrical safety legislation, to protect the operator and the appliance itself

• The power line, which must be H07RN-F unit, must not be stretched or crushed during normal
operation or maintenance.
• The appliance must also be connected to an equipotential system with the screw marked with the
symbol.
• The equipotential cable must have a cross section of 10 mm².
• Respect the polarities indicated in the wiring diagram.
• For further information, refer to the wiring diagram.

Do not use multi-sockets, adapters, cables of an inadequate cross section or type or

with extensions not conforming to established electrical installation regulations.

2.4 Water circuit hookup

The appliance must be connected to its water supply with a flexible hose. A
shut off valve (cock) must be installed between the water supply line and
the appliance's solenoid valve. The cock must be close to the appliance.

• The water supply, temperature and pressure must be compatible with the ratings on the
machine's nameplate.
• If the hardness of the water is greater than 14 F (8 dH), we recommend using an internal water
softener (available on request). If the hardness of the water is greater than 35 F (19.5 dH), install
and external water softener upline of the solenoid valve.
• If the water has a very high residual concentration of high conductivity minerals, we recommend
installing a demineralisation system.

2.5 Connection to the drain line

• The drain line must consist of a free drain sump with siphon suited to
the flow capacity of the drain hose supplied with the appliance. The
hose must be able to reach the sump without stretching, restriction,
folding, crushing, pressing or forcing in any way.
• The tub drains under gravity, so the drain sump must be lower than the
Free drain machine's base.

• if the drain is not lower than the base of the appliance, you can use the
Max. version with drain pump (available on request).
1m • In this case, the drain connection may be no higher than 1 m.
• Always check that the drain works properly and is not blocked.
• Any other solution must be approved by the manufacturer in advance.
With pump (available on request)

2.6 Rinse aid and detergent

• The rinse aid and detergent are dispensed by the machine's integral dispenser (depending on
model).
• The dose is set by the installer in relation to the hardness of the water, and he also calibrates the
dispensers themselves.
• Before calibrating them, fill the dispenser supply tubes with their respective product.
• The units are calibrated with the adjuster screws, or directly with the control panel (as applicable).
• The level of fluid in the container must be sufficient for priming; do not allow it to drain completely
or top it up with corrosive or impure product.

NEVER use CHLORINE or HYPOCHLORITE based detergents.

We recommend installing an automatic detergent dispenser.

Chap 5 MAINTENANCE

5.1 General rules

Before doing any maintenance, completely drain out all water, shut off the power
supply and close the water supply cock.

Do not use water under pressure - it can damage the electrical equipment.

Only wash the body panelling when it is cold, using only product specifically designed for steel.

If there is a risk of ice forming, drain the water from the boiler and wash pump.

5.2 Cleaning

To keep the machine in good working order, it must be maintained regularly as explained below. We
recommend periodically running a sanitising treatment with suitable non-corrosive commercial
products.
5.3 Cleaning the filter unit

Run this procedure at the end of the day or when you see the filters are dirty:

1. Remove and clean the baskets.

2. Empty out the tub as explained in “Machine draining”.
3. Remove and carefully clean all the filters.
4. Do not use abrasive products to clean the tub.
5. Restore all removed parts when finished.

5.4 Cleaning the arms

The wash and rinse arms are easily removed in order to clean their nozzles and prevent
blockage/encrustations.
Proceed as follows ( Fig.10 ):

• Undo nut R and remove the arms.

• Wash all parts under a jet of running water and clean the nozzles thoroughly, using a toothpick or
pointed tool if necessary.
• Clean the arm rotation pins inside the machine and the wash and rinse water drainage area.
• Restore the arms and check that they rotate freely.

Chap 6 SELF DIAGNOSTICS

The machine is equipped with a self-diagnosis system that registers and warns of a number of
malfunctions.
Fault Description and possible remedies
No rinsing. The rinsing cycle was not completed correctly. Make sure that the rinsing
nozzles are clean.

No drainage. The water was not drained or drained incorrectly. Check that the drain
pipe is not bent or crushed and that the siphon and filters are not blocked. In machines
fitted with an overflow pipe, remove this before starting the drainage cycle.

Rinsing temperature reset fault. The boiler temperature did not reset in the set time
during the washing cycle. Switch the machine off and then on and run a new cycle.

Water filling in tank fault. Make sure the pipes are connected correctly, and that the
SAFE

water tap is open. Where foreseen, check the presence of the overflow. Switch the
dishwasher off and then on and fill again.
Tank thermometer fault. (Probe open) The machine does not read the tank
temperature value. Switch the dishwasher off and then on.

Tank thermometer fault. (Probe short circuited) The machine does not read the
tank temperature value. Switch the dishwasher off and then on.

Boiler thermometer fault. (Probe open) The machine does not read the boiler
temperature value. Switch the dishwasher off and then on.

Boiler thermometer fault. (Probe short circuited) The machine does not read the
boiler temperature value. Switch the dishwasher off and then on.

Boiler loading time out: boiler not filled. Impossible to carry out rinse cycle. Check
that the water tap is open. Switch the dishwasher off and then on and run a new cycle.

Tank temperature reset fault: The tank temperature did not reset in the set time
during the washing cycle. Switch the machine off and then on and run a new cycle.

Electro-mechanical safety device: the boiler or tub safety thermostats have cut in, or
SAFE

the tub safety pressure switch has been triggered.

Level safety switch: Incorrect water level in the tank.

SAFE

WARNING! Switching the dishwasher off and then on again "resets" the signals, if after carrying
out the instructions given the problem persists, contact an Authorised Service Centre.
