HYGIENE

This function activates an antibacterial rinse at the end of the wash cycle, guaranteeing a further reduction of bacteria. Press the button to activate or deactivate the function.

This function can be used with the programs indicated in the table of programs. The dishwasher door must be kept shut for the entire duration of the program in order to guarantee reduction of bacteria. If the door is opened the indicator lamp starts flashing.

Water hardness should be set before the first wash or if water hardness has been changed

Water hardness level is factory set for medium-hard water (level 4).

Detergents

When powder or gel detergent is used, regeneration salt must be added and water hardness level must be set as indicated in the table on the right.

Also, when tablets which include salt functionality are used, regeneration salt still must be added.

-Press and hold together Program and buttons for minimum 3 seconds.

-The current water hardness setting will be visible on the display.

-Press the Program button to increase setting. Value range goes from 1 to 7 (when the level reaches 7, the next press of the start button will set the level back to 1).

-Wait 30 seconds (control panel switches off) or press Start/Pause button to save setting.

Once regeneration salt is added, immediately start a wash program (the “Pre-wash” program alone is not sufficient).

Residual saline solution or grains of salt can lead to deep-down corrosion, irreparably damaging the stainless steel components.

The guarantee is not applicable if faults are caused by such circumstances.

The salt level indicator lamp may remain lit at the end of several wash cycles. If the water hardness is set to level 1 (soft), no salt is required and salt indicator lamp will remain off.

The rinse aid dosage can be adjusted to the detergent used. The lower the setting, the less rinse aid is dispensed (factory setting: position 4).

Press the button to open the cover B. Using a coin or similar object, turn the arrow to the desired setting. After adjusting the rinse aid setting, shut the cover again.

Only use rinse aids recommended for use in domestic dishwashers. Immediately wipe away any rinse aid spilt accidentally. This prevents the formation of excess suds which can cause a fault function of the appliance.

If there are streaks: reduce the dosage by turning the dial to a lower setting (1-3). If crockery is not perfectly dry: increase the dosage by turning the dial to a higher setting (5-6). Plastic dishes have more difficulty drying and a higher rinse aid setting will not improve the situation.

Detergents with rinse aid incorporated may be effective only with longer programs. In the case of shorter programs, detergent residue may be a problem (if necessary, use powder detergent). Detergents with rinse aid incorporated tend to form excess suds.
