ISHWASHER
Caution
- Do not forget that repairs should only be carried out by a qualified specialist. Improper repairs can lead to considerable equipment damage, as well as
danger to the user.
- The dishwasher must first be disconnected from the electricity supply before any repairs or other work can be carried out. Switch off at the mains socket
and water supply and remove the plug.
If the dishwasher won't start,
check...
■ Is the dishwasher plugged in at the
electricity socket and switched on?
■ Is there a power failure, check other
appliances.
■ Check the fuse.
■ Is the water supply tap turned on?
■ Is the water inlet hose connected
properly?
■ Is the pressure of the water supply
sufficient?
■ Is the inlet hose kinked?
■ Is the filter on the water supply
hose blocked?
■ Is the dishwasher door not closed
properly?
If water remains inside the
dishwasher, check...
■ the drain hose is not kinked.
■ the drain syphon is not obstructed.
■ the dishwasher filters are not
clogged.
If the dishes are not being
cleaned properly, check...
■ the correct amount of detergent
has been added.
■ there is regenerating salt in the salt
container.
■ the dishes have been loaded
correctly.
■ the selected programme is suitable
for the type of dishes and the
degree of soiling.
■ all filters are clean and positioned
correctly.
■ the spray arm nozzles are not
obstructed.
■ there is nothing obstructing the
rotation of the spray arms.
If the dishes fail to dry or
remain dirty, check...
■ there is rinse aid inside the rinse
aid container.
■ the rinse aid dispenser setting is
correct.
■ the detergent being used is of good
quality and has not lost its
effectiveness (for example, through
incorrect storage, with the box left
open).
If the dishes show signs of
streaking, staining etc. check...
■ the rinse aid dispenser setting is
not set too high.
If there are visible traces of rust
inside the tank, check...
■ the cap off the salt container is
securely closed and that the water
softner setting is correct.
■ the correct amount of detergent is
being used. Certain detergents can
be more corrosive than others.
■ the tank is made of steel and
therefore any rust marks are due
to external elements (fragments of
rust from the tank pipes, pots,
cutlery etc.) Special products are
commercially available to remove
such marks.
Error messages
Your dishwasher is equipped with a
safety system which is able to detect
operating faults.
These faults are reported by one or
two wash cycle indicator lights "E"
flashing rapidly. Take note of which
lights are flashing, turn the appliance
off and call Creda Service for techni-
cal 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 wash cycle 2 and 3 indicator lights
(wash and rinse) will flash rapidly. Turn
the appliance off at the ON-OFF but-
ton, turn on the water tap and wait ap-
proximately 20 seconds before turn-
ing the appliance back on.
Re-select the wash cycle and the ap-
pliance will start up again.
If after all the checks, the appliance still
does not operate or the problem per-
sists, call Creda Service (see KEY
CONTACTS, back page) and inform
them of:
- the type of problem
- the abbreviation of the model name
(Mod.) and the relative numbers (S/N)
written on the rating plate
located on the inner edge of
the door.
Switch off at the mains
socket and remove the plug.
Turn off the water supply.
