FIRST TIME USE
SALT, RINSE AID AND DETERGENT
ADVICE REGARDING THE FIRST TIME USE
After installation, remove the stoppers from the racks and the retaining
elastic elements from the upper rack.
FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes
and on the machine’s functional components.
• It is mandatory that THE SALT RESERVOIR BE NEVER EMPTY.
• It is important to set the water hardness.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher
(see PRODUCT DESCRIPTION) and must be lled when the SALT REFILL
indicator light in the control panel is lit .
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the
reservoir cap (anticlockwise).
2. Only the rst time you do this: ll the salt
reservoir with water.
3. Position the funnel (see gure) and ll the salt
reservoir right up to its edge (approximately
1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak
out.
4. Remove the funnel and wipe any salt residue
away from the opening.
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can get
into the container during the wash program (this could damage the water softener beyond repair).
Whenever you need to add salt, it is mandatory to complete the procedure before the beginning of the washing cycle to avoid corrosion.
SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS
To allow the water softener to work in a perfect way, it is essential
that the water hardness setting is based on the actual water hardness
in your house. This information can be obtained from your local water
supplier. The factory sets the default value for the water hardness

If the salt container is not lled, the water softener and the heating
element may be damaged as a result of limescale accumulation.

above to check this for your machine.
• If you see bluish streaks on the dishes, set a low number (2-3).
• If there are drops of water or limescale marks on the dishes, set a mid-
-range number (4-5).
FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER
To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device C.
Introduce the detergent into the dry dispenser D only. Place
the amount of detergent for pre-washing directly inside the tub.
1. When measuring out the detergent
refer to the mentioned earlier information to add the proper quantity.
Inside the dispenser D there are indications to help the detergent dosing.
2. Remove detergent residues from
the edges of the dispenser and close the cover until it clicks.
3. Close the lid of the detergent
dispenser by pulling it up until
the closing device is secured in place.
The detergent dispenser automatically opens up at the right time
according to the program.
If all-in-one detergents are used, we recommend using the TABLET

and drying results are always achieved.
Usage of detergent not designed for dishwashers may cause malfunction or damage to the appliance.
