you activate the "

3/1

" option, confirmed when the relative light comes on. This option has been studied for the use of dishwashing powder or tablets with integrated substances in place of regenerating salt or rinse-aid known on the market as “3 in 1” or “triple action” products; in this case the dishwasher will use the product in an optimal way avoiding salt and rinse-aid consumption, which could already be found in the dishwasher.

Note:

When selecting the "

3/1

" button, it is normal that the salt and

rinse-aid lights remain on, if their containers are empty.
