What to do before using the machine for the first time

STEP 1: Adjusting the water softener

For impeccable washing and drying results with no streaks.

The water softener must be adjusted correctly to ensure no streaks after washing and drying.

Your dishwasher is fitted with a water softening system that operates using regenerating salt.

You must set the water softener according to the hardness of the water in your area.

- Measuring the water hardness

To do this: contact your local water supplier to find out the water hardness level and adjust on the machine as described below.

- Adjustment via the cursor inside the tub.

Adjust the setting using the cursor on the left-hand side inside the tub by positioning it correctly on the desired number, depending on the water hardness.

You must fill the salt reservoir with water before using the machine, even if the water softener setting selected

does not require any regenerating salt.

If you move house and take the dishwasher with you you will need to check the water hardness and adjust accordingly.

For good wash results it is very important to set the dishwasher to the correct level of water hardness and to set the correct level of rinse aid (see page 8)

STEP 3: the washing products for a clean wash

For easy loading, the detergent container is located on the front of the upper basket.

The detergent container is designed to take tablets powder or liquid recommended for dishwasher use.

Tablets

Place the tablet in the compartment. underneath the top basket.

Powder or liquid

Pull the container out to fill it with liquid detergent or powder.

Fill it up to the Minimum mark for lightly soiled items.

Fill it up to the Maximum mark for dirty items. Close the container.

Keep all these products out of children’s reach and away from

any damp environments.

VERY IMPORTANT:

Only use the washing products specially designed for dishwasher use.

-For good wash results it is recommended to use individual detergent, salt and rinse aid products.

-However “2 in 1” tablets (detergent and rinse aid) can be used, if so, you may need to adjust the rinse aid dial according to the wash results (see page 8)

-Good wash results depend on getting the salt + rinse aid levels set correctly according to use level of water hardness (see pages 6-8).
