When water hardness is set, it is
required to ll water softener with
water and special regeneration salt.

Remove the lower rack and unscrew

As a rst step it is needed to ll
reservoir with water ( ~1.5 litres).

Once done, proceed to the next
step by pressing „OK” button.

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).

Once done, proceed to the next step by pressing „OK” button.
Only use salt that has been specically designed for dishwashers.

Whenever you need to add salt, it is mandatory to complete the pro­cedure before the beginning of the washing cycle to avoid corrosion.
Residual saline solution or grains of salt can lead to corrosion,
irreparably damaging the stainless steel components.
The guarantee is not applicable if faults are caused by such
circumstances.
If the salt container is not lled, the water softener and the heating
element may be damaged as a result of limescale accumulation.
Using of Salt is recommended with any type of dishwasher detergent.

ADDING A DETERGENT

Usage of detergent not designed for dishwashers may cause
malfunction or damage to the appliance.

To achieve the best washing and drying results, the combined use of
detergent, rinse aid liquid and rened salt is required.
We recommend using detergents that do not contain phosphates or
chlorine, as these products are harmful to the environment.

Good washing results also depend on the correct amount of deter­gent being used.
Exceeding the stated amount does not result in a more eective wash
and increases environmental pollution.
The amount can be adjusted to the soil level. In the case of normally
soiled items, use approximately either 35g (powder detergent) or
35ml (liquid detergent) and additional tea spoon of detergent directly
inside the tub. If tablets are used, one tablet will be enough.
If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with water
before being placed in the dishwasher, reduce the amount of deter­gent used accordingly (minimum 25 g/ml) e.g. skip the powder/gel
putted inside the tub.

To open the detergent dispenser,
press button 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 you are using a All-in-one detergents, we recommend that you add
salt in any case, especially if the water is hard or very hard (follow the
instructions given on the packaging).
