Tips for energy saving

Following information will help you use
the product in an ecological and energy­efficient manner.
Wipe away any coarse food remnants on
the dishes before putting them in the
product. Operate the product after filling it
completely. When selecting a programme,
consider the table of “Programme data and
average consumption values”.
Do not put more detergent than suggested
on the detergent package.

Water softening system

Your dishwasher requires soft

C

water. If the hardness of the
water is above 6°dH, the water
must be softened and descaled.
Otherwise, ions that create
the hardness will accumulate
on the surfaces of the dishes
and may adversely affect the
washing, shining and drying
performances of the product.

Adjusting the water
softening system

Cleaning, rinsing and drying performance of
your dishwasher will increase when water
softening system is adjusted properly.
Adjust the new water hardness level
according to the Water hardness level
instruction in this booklet.
Use the test strip supplied with the product
according to the steps given below to
determine hardness level of your supply
water.

The product is equipped with a water
softening system which reduces the
hardness of incoming water. This system
softens the supply water that enters
into the product to a level that will allow
washing the dishes with the required
quality.

Preparation

If the hardness level of the supply water is
above 90 °dF or if you are using well water,
then it is recommended to use water
purification devices and special filters.
If the hardness level of the supply water is
below 13°dF, there is no need to use salt
in your dishwasher. If this is the case, “No
Salt Warning Indicator” (if any) illuminates
continuously on the panel of your machine.
If the water hardness level adjustment
is set to level 1, the “No salt warning
indicator” will illuminate continuously
although it is not necessary to use salt. If
you use salt under this condition, salt will
not be consumed and the Salt indicator will
not illuminate.

In programmes with prewash
and high temperature, in which
you use tablet detergents,
make sure that the detergent
dispenser lid is closed firmly.

Use powder detergent in short
programmes without prewash

detergent changes depending
on the temperature and time.

Excessive usage of powder
detergents will cause the
detergent not dissolve
completely and will also cause
scratches on the glassware.

Preparation

Combined tablet detergents

Combined tablet detergents exhibit water
softening and / or rinse aid effect in
addition to detergent effect. Some types
of these detergents also contain special­purpose washing chemicals such as glass
and stainless steel protectors.
Combined tablet detergents are available
as 3in1, 5in1, Allin1 etc. They function
only up to a specific degree of water
hardness. Above this limit regeneration
salt and rinse aid must be added. Refer to
the instructions on the packaging of the
combined detergent whether it is suitable
for the hardness level of the water supply.
