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.

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.
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.
• Multi-tablets are usually suitable in
areas with a water hardness up to 21
°dH. In areas exceeding this limit, rinse
aid and salt must be used in addition to
the multi-tablets. However, in areas
with hard and very hard water we
recommend to use solo-detergent
(powder, gel, tablets without additional
functions), rinse aid and salt separately
for optimal cleaning and drying results.
• If you use multi-tablets you can select
the Multitab option (if available). This
option increases the cleaning and
drying results with the use of multitablets.
• 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.
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.
10.4 Loading the baskets
• Only use the appliance to wash items
that are dishwasher-safe.
• Do not put in the appliance items made
C
B
A
of wood, horn, aluminium, pewter and
copper.
• Do not put in the appliance items that
can absorb water (sponges, household
cloths).
• Remove remaining food from the
items.
• Make soft the remaining burned food
on the items.
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and
pans) with the opening down.
• Make sure that cutlery and dishes do
not bond together. Mix spoons with
other cutlery.
• Make sure that glasses do not touch
other glasses.
• Put 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 arm can
move freely before you start a
programme.
10.5 Before starting a
programme
Make sure that:
ENGLISH
• 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 multi- tablets).
• 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 programme
water can still remain on the
sides and on the door of the
appliance.

11. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING!
Before maintenance,
deactivate the appliance and
disconnect the mains plug
from the main socket.
Dirty filters and clogged spay

results. Make a check
regularly and, if necessary,
clean them.
11.1 Cleaning the filters
The filter system is made of 3 parts.
1. Turn the filter (B) counterclockwise
and remove it.
www.electrolux.com16

filters can cause bad washing
results and damage to the
appliance.
5. Make sure that there are no residues
of food or soil in or around the edge of
the sump.
6. Put back in place the flat filter (A).
Make sure that it is correctly
positioned under the 2 guides.
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

cloth.
• Only use neutral detergents.
• Do not use abrasive products, abrasive
cleaning pads or solvents.
