If the hardness level of the supply water is above 154 gpg (grains per gallon) 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 22 gpg, 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

salts produced particularly
for the dishwashers in your
machine.
It is recommended to use
granule- or powder-formed
softening salts in the
water softening system.
Do not use salts that do
not completely dissolve in
water such as table salt or
rock salt. Otherwise the
performance of the system
may deteriorate in time.
Salt reservoir will be filled
with water when you start
the product. For this reason,
add salt before operating the
machine.
1. Firstly, take the lower basket out to
add softening salt.
2. Turn the salt reservoir lid counterclockwise to open it (A, B).
3. Add 4 cups of water to salt
reservoir of your machine only in
initial use (C).
4. Fill the salt reservoir with salt by
using the salt funnel (D). To speed
up dissolution rate of salt in water,
stir it with a spoon.

before starting the machine.
Thus, the overflowing
salty water will be flushed
immediately, preventing
the risk of corrosion in
machine. In cases where
you would not start washing
immediately, run your
machine empty in the
shortest program.
Since different salt brands
in the market have different
particle sizes and since the
water hardness may vary,
dissolution of the salt in
water may take a couple
of hours. Therefore, Salt

switch off the appliance,
disconnect the mains plug
and turn off the water tap.
WARNING:Do not repair
or replace any part of the
dishwasher or attempt any
servicing unless specifically
recommended by this
manual. We recommend
that the dishwasher only be
repaired by an authorized
service agent.
CAUTION :To avoid the
possibility of slipping,
keep the floor around the
dishwasher clean and dry.
Keep your appliance free
from the accumulation of
combustible materials, such
as lint, rags, and chemicals.
If the dishwasher is not in
use for an extended period
of time, we recommend you
check that the baskets are
empty, leave the inside of the
dishwasher clean, the door
cracked open to allow air to
circulate, turn off both the
power and water supply to
the dishwasher.

Cleaning the control panel: Use only
soft cloth that is lightly dampened with
mild detergent. Clean the control panel
only with a moist cloth and clear water.
Cleaning the colored doors: Use only
soft cloth that is lightly dampened with
mild detergent.
Cleaning the stainless steel doors:
Use a soft cloth with a cleaner made
for cleaning stainless steel. For the
best results, apply the stainless steel
cleaner to a soft cloth and wipe the
surface in the direction of the grain.
Cleaning the door gasket: Regularly
clean the door gasket with a damp
