6. SETTINGS

6.1 Programme selection mode and user mode

When the appliance is in programme selection mode it is possible to set a programme and to enter the user mode.

Settings available in the user mode:

The level of water softener according to the water hardness.

Activation or deactivation of the rinse aid empty notification.

Activation or deactivation of AirDry.

As the appliance stores the saved settings, there is no need to configure it before every cycle.

How to set the programme selection mode

The appliance is in programme selection mode when the programme indicator

is on and the display shows the programme duration.

After activation, the appliance is in programme selection mode by default. If not, set the programme selection mode the following way:

Press and hold simultaneously

Water hardness

appliance is in programme selection mode.

How to enter user mode

Make sure the appliance is in programme selection mode.

To enter user mode, press and hold simultaneously Delay and Start until the

indicators , and flash and the display is blank.

6.2 The water softener

The water softener removes minerals from the water supply, which would have a detrimental effect on the washing results and on the appliance.

The higher the content of these minerals, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales.

The water softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area. It is important to set the right level of the water softener to assure good washing results.

12 www.electrolux.com

In the other programmes the setting of XtraDry is permanent and it is automatically used in next cycles. This configuration can be changed at any time.

Every time is activated, XtraDry is off and needs to be chosen manually.

8.BEFORE FIRST USE

1.Make sure that the current level of the water softener agrees with the hardness of the water supply. If not, adjust the level of the water softener.

2.Fill the salt container.

3.Fill the rinse aid dispenser.

4.Open the water tap.

5.Start a programme to remove any processing residuals that can still be inside the appliance. Do not use detergent and do not load the baskets.

After starting a programme, it may take up to 5 minutes for the appliance to recharge the resin in the water softener. It seems that the appliance is not working. The washing phase starts only after this procedure is completed. The procedure is repeated periodically.

8.1 The salt container

CAUTION!

Use rough salt designed for dishwashers only. Fine salt increases the risk of corrosion.

The salt is used to recharge the resin in the water softener and to assure good washing results in daily use.

How to fill the salt container

1.Turn the cap of the salt container counterclockwise and remove it.

10. HINTS AND TIPS

10.1 General

The following hints will ensure optimal cleaning and drying results in daily use and also help to protect the environment.

Remove larger residues of food from the dishes into the waste bin.

Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. When needed, use the prewash programme (if available) or select a programme with a prewash phase.

Always use the whole space of the baskets.

When loading the appliance, make sure that the dishes can be completely reached and washed by the water released from the spray arm nozzles. Make sure that items do not touch or cover each other.

You can use dishwasher detergent, rinse aid and salt separately or you can use the multi-tablets (e.g. ''3in1'', ''4in1'', ''All in 1''). Follow the instructions written on the packaging.

Select the programme according to the type of load and degree of soil. With the ECO programme you have the most efficient use of water and energy consumption for crockery and cutlery with normal soil.

ENGLISH 15

End of the programme

When the programme is completed the display shows 0:00. The phase indicators are off.

All buttons are inactive except for the on/off button.

1.Press the on/off button or wait for the Auto Off function to automatically deactivate the appliance.

If you open the door before the activation of Auto Off, the appliance is automatically deactivated.

2.Close the water tap.

10.2 Using salt, rinse aid and detergent

Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent for dishwasher. Other products can cause damage to the appliance.

In areas with hard and very hard water we recommend to use plain dishwasher detergent (powder, gel, tablets containing no additional agents), rinse aid and salt separately for optimal cleaning and drying results.

At least once a month run the appliance with the use of appliance cleaner which is particularly suitable for this purpose.

Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short programmes. To prevent detergent residues on the tableware, we recommend that you use the tablets with long programmes.

Do not use more than the correct quantity of detergent. Refer to the instructions on the detergent packaging.

16 www.electrolux.com

10.3 What to do if you want to stop using multi-tablets

Before you start to use separately detergent, salt and rinse aid do the following procedure.

1.Set the highest level of the water softener.

2.Make sure that the salt and rinse aid containers are full.

3.Start the shortest programme with a rinsing phase. Do not add detergent and do not load the baskets.

4.When the programme is completed, adjust the water softener according to the water hardness in your area.

5.Adjust the released quantity of rinse aid.

6.Activate the rinse aid empty notification.

10.4 Loading the baskets

Only use the appliance to wash items that are dishwasher-safe.

Do not put in the appliance items made of wood, horn, aluminium, pewter and copper.

Do not put in the appliance items that can absorb water (sponges, household cloths).

Remove larger residues of food from the dishes into the waste bin.

Make soft the remaining burned food on the items.

Put hollow items (cups, glasses and pans) with the opening down.

Make sure that glasses do not touch other glasses.

11.CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING!

Before maintenance, deactivate the appliance and disconnect the mains plug from the main socket.

Dirty filters and clogged spray arms decrease the washing results. Make a check regularly and, if necessary, clean them.

Put cutlery and small items in the cutlery basket.

Put light items in the upper basket. Make sure that the items do not move.

Make sure that the spray arms can move freely before you start a programme.

10.5 Before starting a programme

Make sure that:

The filters are clean and correctly installed.

The cap of the salt container is tight.

The spray arms are not clogged.

There is dishwasher salt and rinse aid (unless you use multitablets).

The position of the items in the baskets is correct.

The programme is applicable for the type of load and for the degree of soil.

The correct quantity of detergent is used.

10.6 Unloading the baskets

1.Let the tableware cool down before you remove it from the appliance. Hot items can be easily damaged.

2.First remove items from the lower basket, then from the upper basket.

At the end of the program water can still remain on the sides and on the door of the appliance.

11.1 Cleaning the filters

The filter system is made of 3 parts.

18 www.electrolux.com

11.2 Cleaning the spray arms

Do not remove the spray arms. If the holes in the spray arms are clogged, remove remaining parts of soil with a thin pointed object.

11.3 External cleaning

Clean the appliance with a moist soft cloth.

Only use neutral detergents.

Do not use abrasive products, abrasive cleaning pads or solvents.

11.4 Internal cleaning

Carefully clean the appliance, including the rubber gasket of the door, with a soft damp cloth.

12.TROUBLESHOOTING

If you regularly use short duration programmes, these can leave deposits of grease and limescale inside the appliance. To prevent this, we recommend to run long duration programmes at least 2 times per month.

To maintain the performance of your appliance at its best, we recommend to use monthly a specific cleaning product for dishwashers. Follow carefully the instructions on the packaging of the product.

If the appliance does not start or it stops during operation, first check if you can solve the problem by yourself with the help of the information in the table or contact an Authorised Service Centre.

WARNING!

Repairs not properly done may result in serious risk to the safety of the user. Any repairs must be performed by qualified personnel.

With some problems, the display shows an alarm code.

The majority of problems that can occur can be solved without the need to contact an Authorised Service Centre.
