detrimental effect on the washing results
How to set the programme selection mode
The appliance is in programme selection

way:
and on the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals,
the harder your water is. Water hardness is
measured in equivalent scales.
The water 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. It is important to set the right
level of the water softener to assure good
washing results.

HINTS AND TIPS
General
The following hints will ensure optimal
cleaning and drying results in daily use and
also help to protect the environment.
• Remove larger residues of food from the
dishes into the waste bin.
• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. When
needed, use the prewash programme (if
available) or select a programme with a
prewash phase.
• Always use the whole space of the
baskets.
• When loading the appliance, make sure
that the dishes can be completely
reached and washed by the water
released from the spray arm nozzles.
Make sure that items do not touch or
cover each other.
• You can use dishwasher detergent, rinse
aid and salt separately or you can use
the multi-tablets (e.g. ''3in1'', ''4in1'',
''All in 1''). Follow the instructions written
on the packaging.
• Select the programme according to the
type of load and degree of soil. With the
ECO programme you have the most
efficient use of water and energy

consumption for crockery and cutlery
with normal soil.
Using salt, rinse aid and detergent
• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent for
dishwasher. Other products can cause
damage to the appliance.
• In areas with hard and very hard water
we recommend to use plain dishwasher
detergent (powder, gel, tablets
containing no additional agents), rinse
aid and salt separately for optimal
cleaning and drying results.
• At least once a month run the appliance
with the use of appliance cleaner which
is particularly suitable for this purpose.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve
with short programmes. To prevent
detergent residues on the tableware, we
recommend that you use the tablets with
long programmes.
• Do not use more than the correct
quantity of detergent. Refer to the
instructions on the detergent packaging.
14
What to do if you want to stop using multi-tablets
Before you start to use separately
detergent, salt and rinse aid do the
following procedure.
1. Set the highest level of the water
softener.
2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid
containers are full.
3. Start the shortest programme with a
rinsing phase. Do not add detergent
and do not load the baskets.
4.
When the programme is completed,
adjust the water softener according to
the water hardness in your area.
5.
Adjust the released quantity of rinse aid.
6.
Activate the rinse aid empty notification.
Loading the baskets
• Only use the appliance to wash items
that are dishwasher-safe.
• Do not put in the appliance items made
of wood, horn, aluminium, pewter and
copper.
• Do not put in the appliance items that
can absorb water (sponges, household
cloths).
• Remove remaining food from the items.
• Make soft the remaining burned food on
the items.
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and
pans) with the opening down.
• Make sure that cutlery and dishes do not
bond together. Mix spoons with other
cutlery.
• Make sure that glasses do not touch
other glasses.
• Put small items in the cutlery basket.
• Put light items in the upper basket.
Make sure that the items do not move.
• Make sure that the spray arm can move
freely before you start a programme.
Before starting a programme
Make sure that:
• The filters are clean and correctly
installed.

is correct.
• The programme is applicable for the
type of load and for the degree of soil.
• The correct quantity of detergent is
used.
Unloading the baskets
1. Let the tableware cool down before you
remove it from the appliance. Hot items
can be easily damaged.
2. First remove items from the lower
basket, then from the upper basket.
At the end of the program water
can still remain on the sides and
on the door of the appliance.
