2 Safety and warnings

Your DishDrawer?? has been carefully designed to operate safely during normal dishwashing procedures. Please keep the following instructions in mind when you are using your DishDrawer??.

Important safety instructions

WARNING! - When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following: Read all instructions before using the DishDrawer??.

The information in this manual must be followed to minimise the risk of fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

Use the DishDrawer?? only for its intended function as described in this user guide. This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar applications such as:

???staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and other working environments;

???farm houses;

???by clients in hotels, motels and other residential type environments;

???bed and breakfast type environments.

Use only detergents or rinse aid recommended for use in a domestic dishwasher and keep them out of reach of children. Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after the completion of each wash programme.

When loading items to be washed, locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the lid seal and load sharp knives with the handle up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

Do not touch the heater plate during or immediately after use.

Do not operate your DishDrawer?? unless all enclosure panels are properly in place. Do not tamper with the controls.

Do not abuse, sit on, stand in or on the drawer or dish rack of the DishDrawer??.

The DishDrawer should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.

The adjustable racks are designed to support cups, glasses and kitchen utensils. When the adjustable racks are in the DishDrawer?? do not lean on or use them to support your body weight.

To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the DishDrawer??.

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water heater system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher, turn on all hot water taps and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open. Check that the detergent receptacle is empty after completion of the wash cycle.

Caring for your dinnerware 9

The combination of high temperatures and dishwasher detergent may cause damage to some items if they are washed in the DishDrawer??. Remember, if in any doubt about any aspect concerning items washed in the DishDrawer??, follow the instructions from the manufacturer of the items, or wash the item by hand.

Cutlery & silverware

All cutlery and silverware should be rinsed immediately after use to prevent tarnishing caused by some foods. The Rinse wash programme is useful for this. Silver items should not come into contact with stainless steel, eg other cutlery. Mixing these items can cause staining. Remove silver cutlery from the DishDrawer?? and hand dry it immediately after the programme has finished.

Aluminium

Aluminium can be dulled by dishwasher detergent. The degree of change depends on the quality of the product.

Other metals

Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items. Copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.

Woodware

Wooden items are generally sensitive to heat and water. Regular use in the dishwasher may cause deterioration over time. If in doubt, wash by hand.

Glassware

Most everyday glassware is dishwasher safe. Crystal, very fine and antique glassware may etch that is, become opaque. You may prefer to wash these items by hand.

Plastic

Some plastic may change shape or colour with hot water. Check manufacturer???s instructions about washing plastic items. Washable plastic items should be weighed down so they do not flip over and fill with water or fall through the base rack during the wash. Use the multi-purpose clip to hold plastic items in place.

Decorated items

Most modern china patterns are dishwasher safe. Antique items, those with a pattern painted over the glaze, gold rims or hand painted china may be more sensitive to machine washing. If in doubt, wash by hand.

Glued items

Certain adhesives are softened or dissolved in machine washing. If in doubt, wash by hand.

Holiday time

If the DishDrawer?? is not going to be used for some time, we recommend you leave the DishDrawer?? clean and empty. Leave the drawers ajar to allow air to circulate. Turn off both the power and water supply to the DishDrawer??.

10 Racking and accessories

Cutlery basket

To reduce the risk of injury, we recommend loading knives and sharp utensils with handles facing up.

Mix spoons, knives and forks within each section to stop cutlery nesting together and to ensure the water circulates freely.

Keep stainless steel from touching silver cutlery to avoid staining.

Removable small items container

Small, light items like baby bottle teats are best placed into the small items container to prevent them from being displaced during the wash.

Racking and accessories 11

Removable small items container

To optimise the cutlery space within the basket, the small items container can be placed elsewhere on the base rack. If laid flat, make sure the solid plastic side is facing up.

If you place a fully laden small items container under the adjustable racks, it is best to leave the rack space directly above the container empty: there may not be enough water reaching items that are placed there.

Removable tablet tray

If you are using dishwasher tablets, place them on the removable tablet tray, as shown. See also ???Using tablets??? for more information.

We do not recommend using tablets in USA and Canada models. The pre-wash cycle in these models would dissolve the tablet, reducing the cleaning power left for the main wash.

12 Racking and accessories

Glass supports

These clip on the rack wires to give your tall glasses extra stability.

Stemware notches

These notches help support long-stemmed glassware.

Multi-purpose clip

This keeps flimsy

items (eg light plastic lids and bottles) or large platters and plates stable,

so they cannot be dislodged during the wash. Slide the item between the prongs of the clip.

???Slide-and-fold??? tines

Slide to the left or right to fit larger plates.

For optimum stability, place larger plates between the longer tines in the front.

Fold the tine sections down towards each other if you need the space for pots or other large items.

Racking and accessories 13

Adjustable racks

You can adjust these independently of each other to any height:

1Fold up to unlock the rack.

2Adjust the height to suit by sliding up or down.

3Fold down to lock in position.

Fold the racks away if you need the space.

Knife clip

(supplied with some models only)

This clips onto the

adjustable racks and

supports knives and

other utensils during

the wash.

Always ensure that

knife blades are facing down.

Cup rack with folding support wire

Fold the wire up to support tall glasses.

14 Loading suggestions

When loading your DishDrawer??, make sure that

you place items so that water coming from the rotating spray arms below can reach all areas (wash performance will be reduced if it can???t)

nothing blocks the water from getting to items on the adjustable racks.

How NOT to load your DishDrawer??

Overcrowded and wash water will not reach some of the dinnerware.

Cups, glasses and bowls must have their openings facing down.

Ensure dishware items are not forced into or protrude out of the drawer, as this may prevent the lid from properly sealing which could result in a service call. Locate sharp items safely to prevent injuring the user and damaging the lid assembly.

Check the bottom of the cutlery basket to ensure sharp or pointed items have not come through as they may stop spray arm rotation.

The plates are nesting together and wash water may not get through.

Ensure cutlery are not nesting or stuck together. They need to be evenly spread out.

Ensure cutlery has not fallen through the base rack and stopped the spray arms from rotating.

The large bowl is blocking wash water reaching the adjustable racks.

Large utensils should be on the adjustable racks so they do not become dislodged and stop the spray arms from rotating.

Sharp or pointed items must be placed horizontally or with sharp edges/points facing down to avoid risk of injury.

Using tablets 15

Important!

We do not recommend using dishwasher tablets in USA and Canada models. The pre-wash cycle in these models would dissolve the tablet, reducing the cleaning power left for the main wash. If you are using tablets, we highly recommend you use the standard Normal or Heavy programmes only. We do not recommend you use the Fast, Delicate, or any wash programme using less than 50 oC (see section ???Wash programme data???). Follow the instructions of the tablet manufacturer for optimum performance.

Using tablets could improve wash performance in hard water areas.

Tablets can either be placed in the cutlery basket or alternatively, placed directly in the wash compartment as below. If you are using dishwasher tablets with a built-in rinse aid component, you may need to reduce the rinse aid setting. See ???Option adjustments??? for instructions.

Preferred:

Place the tablet on the removable tablet tray.

Alternative:

If the cutlery basket cannot be used, place tablet in the bottom of the DishDrawer.

16 Water hardness and dishwashing

What is water hardness?

Hard water is water with a high concentration of minerals such as calcium and magnesium. In soft water, this concentration is low. Water hardness varies by geographical location.

How does water hardness affect dishwashing?

Hard water can be detrimental to the peformance of your DishDrawer. Over time, glassware washed in hard water will become opaque and dishes will become spotted or covered in a white film. Using very hard water can cause DishDrawer parts to fail over time.

Naturally soft or softened water has no detrimental effects if used with the correct amount of detergent. However, excess detergent combined with hot, soft water may cause irreversible etching on glassware. Etching first appears as a rainbow-coloured film and???if allowed to continue???can make glassware permanently opaque.

What can I do to minimise any detrimental effects?

Contact your local water company to find out about water hardness in your area.

If your home has hard water and your DishDrawer has no built-in water softener...

Follow the detergent quantity recommendations on the following page.

Use a detergent with high phosphate content. Phosphate softens the water and this improves wash results.

Use rinse aid. We recommend you turn the rinse aid setting to 5 to help improve wash performance.

Use a dishwasher cleaner/descaler regularly, or whenever you notice a build-up of limescale deposits in your DishDrawer.

Important!

We recommend fitting a water softener to the household water supply. If the water hardness in your home is above 250 ppm/14.6 gpg, a water softener has to be fitted to maintain the performance of your DishDrawer.

If your home has naturally soft or softened water???

Avoid using too much detergent. Follow the quantity recommendations on the following page. Ensure the DishDrawer is not overloaded and water can reach all the dishes.

Wash programmes and detergent quantities 17

Wash programmes

All programmes except Rinse can be used in ECO mode to save energy. If your dishes are heavily soiled or you require enhanced dry performance, we do not recommend ECO programmes. See section ???Operating instructions ??? Controls??? for wash programme selection.

Detergent quantities

Find out about water hardness in your home, then use the table below to determine how much detergent to use for each wash programme. See also section ???Water hardness and dishwashing???. The detergent dispenser has markings to help you measure the correct quantities. See following section ???Detergent dispenser???.

* If you have a household water softener installed or your DishDrawer has a built-in water softener (GB IE models only) use the quantities recommended for water with a hardness

under 100 ppm/6 gpg, irrespective of the water hardness in the area. See also section ???Water softener???.

18 Detergent dispenser

Important!

Only use powdered detergent recommended for domestic automatic dishwashers in the detergent dispenser.

Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children and infirm persons away from the DishDrawer when it is open. Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after completion of the wash programme.

Do not place dishwasher tablets in the detergent dispenser.

Detergent and dishwasher tablets should not be in direct contact with dishes or cutlery. Liquid detergents are not suitable to be used in the DishDrawer??.

Hand washing liquids, soap, laundry detergents or disinfectants will damage the DishDrawer??.

Filling the detergent dispenser

1Press the latch down and the dispenser will open.

2Pour detergent into the appropriate compartment(s). Use the markings to help you measure the correct quantities. No detergent is needed for the Rinse programme.

3Close the dispenser until it clicks shut. The detergent will automatically be released into the DishDrawer?? during the wash programme.

Amount of detergent to use

Refer to previous section ???Wash programmes and detergent quantities???, and follow the quantities relevant to your location and water hardness level.

(used in USA and Canada only)

2 teaspoons (full)

1 teaspoon

Latch

6 teaspoons (full) 4 teaspoons

2 teaspoons

Main wash compartment

Rinse aid dispenser 19

We highly recommend the regular use of liquid rinse aid to give the best drying results.

Rinse aid gives a streak-free, sparkling clean look to glass and chinaware. In addition, it prevents metal from tarnishing. The rinse aid dispenser is on the inside of the drawer, located underneath the detergent dispenser. The rinse aid dispenser holds approximately 1.7 fl oz / 50 ml of rinse aid.

Filling the rinse aid dispenser

1 Turn the plug anticlockwise and remove.

2Pour the rinse aid into the circular opening.

3 Take care not to spill rinse aid into the DishDrawer??.

Important!

Any spillages must be wiped up to prevent excess foaming. Failure to wipe rinse aid spillages may result in a service call which will not be covered by warranty.

4Fit the plug back into the original position.

How much rinse aid to use

The regulator may need adjusting to suit your water conditions or the particular dishwasher tablet you are using. The lowest setting is ???1??? and the highest is ???5???. Refer to the ???Option adjustments??? section to adjust the rinse aid setting.

If there is excessive foam at the end of the wash or you are using dishwasher tablets with built-in rinse aid, reduce the setting.

If dishes are wet or streaky after drying, increase the setting.

If you live in a hard water area and you have no water softener installed in your water supply or built into your DishDrawer, we recommend adjusting the rinse aid setting to 5.

Rinse aid indicator light

If the rinse aid indicator light is red, refill the dispenser. If the rinse aid indicator light is dimly lit or not lit at all, there is enough rinse aid for the wash.

Note:

Lighter coloured rinse aids will not dim the indicator light as effectively as darker coloured rinse aids. When the rinse aid is being dispensed, you may notice some unusual noises during the wash:

this is normal.

Indicator light Plug

20 Water softener

Setting up the water softener

Important!

Only GB IE models have a built-in water softener.

Models with water softener are not currently available in New Zealand, Australia, USA or Canada.

Determine the water hardness in your local area

Your local water company will be able to provide you with information. Identify the setting you require for your DishDrawer?? from the water hardness table below. For example, if your water hardness is 500ppm, then the water softener setting on your DishDrawer?? should be 4. Refer to the ???Option adjustments??? section to adjust the water softener so that the setting corresponds to your water hardness.

Notes:

If your water hardness is above 625ppm, we highly recommend you completely fill the appropriate compartment(s) of the detergent dispenser for all programmes except Rinse and the rinse aid setting should be at 5. If your water hardness is above 625ppm, the wash performance of your DishDrawer?? will decline.

You may hear some unusual noises when the water softener is in operation, this is normal.

Salt reservoir

Salt container

How to fill the salt reservoir

1Open the DishDrawer??.

2Unscrew the salt reservoir cap by turning anticlockwise.

3Place the salt into the salt container and pour the contents into the salt reservoir. The salt reservoir can hold up to approximately 1 lb/0.5 kg of salt.

4Fit the cap tightly back into its original position.

5If you do not wash your dishes immediately after filling the salt reservoir, run a Rinse programme to remove any salt water or spilt granules.

Note:

When filling the salt reservoir, you may notice water being displaced from the water softener overflow.

Water softener 21

Important!

The water softener must always be filled with granular salt made especially for dishwasher water softening systems. We do not recommend the use of cooking salt like table salt, rock salt or pellets as they may contain impurities that will impair or diminish the life of the water softener.

Water softening can only take place when there is salt in the reservoir. The salt reservoir must be filled prior to using the DishDrawer?? and whenever the salt indicator light is red.

Salt indicator light

If the salt indicator light is red, the salt reservoir is empty.

If the salt indicator light is black, there is enough salt in the reservoir for the wash programme that has been selected.
