Error messages.
Your dishwasher is equipped with
a safety system which is able to
detect any operating anomalies.
1) If the appliance does not
start and after approximately 10
minutes the code "H2O" appears
and the words "Check water inlet"
scroll across the screen, this means
you have forgotten to turn on the
tap. Check: after it's been turned
on, the appliance will start.
2) If there is a malfunction
which prevents the appliance
from operating, the wash cy-
cle is interrupted, the code relative
to that particular malfunction ap-
pears on the display and a message
scrolls across explaining the nature
of the malfunction, along with the
words "contact service".
3) If, on the other hand, the
malfunction does not pre-
vent the appliance from
operating,the dishwasher fin-
ishes the wash cycle and indicates,
at 30 second intervals, that it is
operating incorrectly, by means of
a specific code and message.
In cases number 2 and 3 above, to
get your appliance fully functional
again, inform the service centre as
to the message and the error code
which appeared on the display.
The service centre will send out a
technician for the repairs.
If the dishwasher is con-
nected to a digital system
which also includes the TLI
telephone node (Telephone Link
Interface), when the malfunction
occurs, the appliance itself
Troubleshooting
makes a phone call to the Ariston
Technical Service Centre and the
telephone symbol "P" lights up on
the display.
The display doesn't
come on or sends out
confused messages?
Call an authorised service centre
near you and remember to men-
tion:
the type of malfunction
the model type no. (Mod.) and
the serial number (S/N.) indicated
on the rating plate located on the
inner door, to one side.
Never call upon
the services of
unauthorised
technicians and
always refuse
spare parts
that are not
originals.
I only want an authorised
specialised technician with
original Ariston guaranteed
spare parts.
1. Dispose of the packaging
material carefully (follow the
instructions on how to divide
your rubbish up provided by your
local Council)
2. After removing the packaging,
check to make sure your
appliance is intact. If in doubt,
contact a qualified professional.
3. Your dishwasher must only be
used by adults and for washing
household dishes, according to
the instructions included in this
manual. Do not touch the
appliance with wet hands or feet
or barefoot.
4. We discourage the use of
extension leads and multiple
plugs. If the electricity supply
wire is not long enough, then
have it replaced with one of the
correct length and remember
that it should be free of bends
or dangerous kinks.
5. If the appliance is not operating
properly or if maintenance
operations are necessary,
disconnect the dishwasher from
the mains power supply (unplug
it!).
6. Keep children away from the
dishwasher when it is open and
keep detergents out of their
reach.
7. Your dishwasher is not to be
installed outdoors, not even if
the area is covered by a roof: it
is extremely dangerous to leave
it exposed to rain and
thunderstorms.
8. Do not touch the heating
element during or straight after
a wash cycle.
9. Do not lean or sit on the door
when it is open, as this could
overturn the dishwasher.
10.If the appliance malfunctions,
turn off the water inlet tap and
disconnect the plug from the
wall socket. Then try consulting
the "If you have a problem, read
this" chapter.
11.Once taken out of use,
appliances must be made
inoperable: cut the power supply
wire and damage the door lock.
