First use
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
●Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions
●Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
●Set the water softener
●Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt
●Fill the rinse aid dispenser
When using combi detergents tablets («3 in 1», «4 in 1», «5 in 1», etc...) follow the instructions given in "Use of detergent".
Set the water softener
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke degrees (°dH), French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.

Filling with dishwasher salt
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes.
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1.Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
2.Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time).
first use electrolux 13
4.Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5.Replace the cap tightly turning it clockwise until it stops with a click.
Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

Filling with rinse aid
Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse.
1.Open the container by pressing the release button (A).
2.Add the rinse aid in the container. The maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".
The dispenser holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for between 16 and 40 dishwashing cycles, depending upon the dosage setting.
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).
The dose is factory set in position 4.
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
3.Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash.
Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers.
Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.
