Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

A. Set the water softener B. Pour 1／2 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt C. Fill the rinse aid dispenser D. Function of detergent

The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial. The water softener isdesigned to remove minerals andsalts from the water, whichwouldhave a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. Thehigher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is. 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.

Adjusting Salt Consumption The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption so that the salt consumption could be set proceed as follows:

1. Unscrew the cap from the salt container

2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figureto the side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the anticlockwise direction from the “-”Setting toward the

“ ”sign, based on thehardness of the water beingused. Itis recommendedthat adjustments shouldbe madein accordance with the following schema:

Always usesalt intended for use with dishwasher. The salt containeris located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows: Attention! Only usesalt specifically designed for use indishwashers! All other typesof salt notspecifically designed foruse in a dishwasher,especiallytable salt, will damage the water softener. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt themanufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any caused damages. 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 split, remaining of the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion. After thefirst wash cycle the control panel light expires.

A Remove the lower basket andthen unscrewand remove the cap from the salt container. B If you are filling the container for the first time, fill 2/3 of its volume with water (around500ml). C Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1,2kg of salt. It is

Normalfor a small amount of water to come out of the salt container. D Carefully screw the cap back on. E Usually, the salt warning light will be off in 2-6 days after thesalt container be filled withsalt.

NOTE:

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot andstreakfreedrying.

Only usebranded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

The salt contain er must be refilled when the salt warning light in the c ont rol panel comes on.1.

Though the salt container is filled enough, the indicator light may not black out before thesalt fully dissolve.

If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some models) , you can judge when to load

the salt into the softener

by the cycles that the dishwasher had run (see the foregoing schema ).

If there is no rinse- aid warning light in the c ontrol pa nel, y ou can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the color of the optical level indicator "D" located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of thedark dotdecreases. You should never let the rinse aid get below 1 / 4 full.

D (Rinse-Aid indicator)

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

Full 3/4full 1/2full 1 / 4 full - Should refill to eliminate spotting Empty

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.

Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.

Replace the capby inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It alsoimproves drying by allowing water to sheet off the dishes. Your dishwashersare designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volumeoftherinseaidcontainer is about 140ml. Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.

Attention! Clean up any rinse aid split during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excessfoaming during the next wash.

The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings.Always startwith the dispenser set on “2”.If spots and poor drying are problems,increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to “3”. If the dishes still are not drying properly or are spotted, adjust the dial to the next higher numberuntil yourdishes are spot-free. We suggest you to set on “4”(Factory value is “4”) NOTE: Increa se the dose if there are d rops of water or lime spo ts on the dishes aft er washing. Reduceit if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film onglasswareor knife blades.
