Cleaning and Special Maintenance

Troubleshooting

It may occur that the dishwasher does not function or does

not function properly. Before calling for assistance, let us

see what can be done first: have you forgot 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 put the right amount of detergent into the

dispenser?

Is the wash cycle suitable for the dishes you have placed

inside the appliance?

Are the filter and microfilter clean?

Can the sprayer arms turn freely?

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.

Your dishwasher is equipped with a safety system which is able to

detect any operating anomalies. These anomalies are reported by

one or two wash cycle indicator lights "M" flashing rapidly.

Take a note of which lights are flashing, turn the appliance off and

call for technical assistance.

Tap off alarm

If you have forgotten to turn the water tap on, your appliance will

remind you of this by sounding a few short beeps for a few minutes.

Turn the tap on and your appliance will start up again after a few

minutes. Were you to be absent when these beeps are sounded, the

appliance will be blocked automatically and indicator lights 5 and 6

(quick wash and crystal) will flash rapidly. Turn the appliance off at

the ON-OFF button, turn on the water tap and wait approximately

20 seconds before turning the appliance back on; then re-select a

wash cycle as indicated in the "Setting and Starting a Wash Cycle"

paragraph and the appliance will start.

Clogged filter alarm

If the appliance is blocked and indicator lights 4(auto Bio) and 6

(crystals) flash rapidly, this means the filter is clogged by large particles

of food residue. Turn the appliance off, clean the filter thoroughly

and reposition it in its seat as illustrated on this page. Then turn it

back on and re-select a wash cycle as indicated in the "Setting and

Starting a Wash Cycle" paragraph; the appliance will start.

Water load solenoid valve malfunction alarm.

If indicator light 5 (quick wash) flashes rapidly, TURN the dishwasher

OFF AND BACK ON AGAIN after one minute. If the alarm persists,

first turn off the water tap to avoid any flooding and then cut off the

electricity supply and call for technical assistance.

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

function and/or the problem persists, contact the nearest

authorised service 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 unauthorised technicians and refuse to

allow parts to be installed that are not original spare

parts.

Cleaning the Sprayer Arms

It may happen that food particle become encrusted on the

sprayer arms and block the holes (see "Close up view

(interior)", letters F-I). Check the sprayer arms periodically and

clean them when needed.

The filter assembly

If you want consistent good results from your dishwasher,

you need to clean the filter assembly.

The food particles are removed from the wash water, allowing

it to be recirculated during the cycle, filtered perfectly. For

this reason, it is a good idea to remove the larger food

particles trapped inside the cup “C” and the semi-circular

filter A after each wash; pull the cup handle upwards to

remove them. Just rinse them under running water.

The entire filter assembly should be cleaned thoroughly once

a month: cup C + semi-circular filter A + cylindrical filter B.

Rotate filter “B” anticlockwise to remove it.

For cleaning, use a non metallic brush.

Reassemble the filter parts (as shown in the figure) and

reinsert the whole assembly into the dishwasher. Position it

into its housing and press downwards.

The dishwasher is not to be used without filters. Improper

replacement of the filters may reduce the efficiency of the

wash and even damage your dishwasher.
