specially recommended for dishwashers, observing the manufacturer’s recommended dosage.
Observe the manufacturer’s safety warnings!
Press the left button (button 1) on the dispenser to open the detergent dispenser compartments.
a. Powder/gel/tabs
Fill the detergent dispenser compartments in accordance with the wash programme selected (table 1.1).
Programmes without pre-wash:
Pour the entire recommended dosage into compartment A.
Programmes with pre-wash:
Pour 2/3 of the recommended dosage into the large compartment
and 1/3 into the small compartment B.
A
Dishwasher tabs should be placed, as per the manufacturer’s
recommendations, in compartment A.
If the “Half load” option is selected, detergent dosage should be
reduced by approximately 1/3.
b. Combined action detergents (2 in 1/3 in 1/... etc.)
Dishwasher tabs should be placed, as per the manufacturer’s
recommendations, in compartment A.
Shut and firmly press the detergent compartment lid shut after filling.
Detergents with rinse aid incorporated may be effective only with longer programmes. In the
case of shorter programmes, detergent residue may be a problem (if necessary, use powder
detergent). Detergents with rinse aid incorporated tend to form excess suds.
The guarantee is not applicable if faults are caused by the use of these products.

HOW TO CHECK/FILL/ADJUST RINSE AID
Not necessary when using a combined action detergent.
a. How to check the rinse aid level
Check the visual indicator C on the dispenser: dark = sufficient rinse aid, clear = add rinse aid.
In the case of appliances with an electric indicator on the
control panel, the rinse aid indicator lights up at the end
of the wash cycle when rinse aid needs to be added.
b. How to fill the rinse aid dispenser
Press the right button on the dispenser (button 2 ) to open
the rinse aid compartment.
Fill the dispenser with rinse aid up to the “max” line
(approx. 150 ml).
Shut the lid again.
Only use rinse aids recommended for use in domestic dishwashers.
If rinse aid is accidentally spilt,
which could cause appliance malfunctioning.
c. How to adjust the rinse aid dosage regulator:
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 2 to open the cover.
Using a coin or similar object, turn the arrow to the desired setting.
After adjusting the rinse aid setting, shut the cover again.
If the dishes often have whitish streaks: reduce the dosage by turning the dial to a lower setting
(1-3). Dishes did not 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.
