How to fill the salt

Salt

The hardness of the water varies from place to plac e. I f hard wat er is use d in t he dishw asher, deposits

will form on the dishes and utensils. The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.

Loading the salt into the container

Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.

The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:

According to the “Water Hardness Tabel”, y ou c an calculate the time of use, then load the salt . Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container. If you are f illing t he cont ainer f or the f ir st tim e, fill it with water. Place the end of the funn el (s upplied) into the hole and introduce about 2 kg of salt. It is normal for a sm all amount of water to come out of the salt container. Carefully screw the cap back on.

Important

To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt just before beginning a wash cycle.

Adjusting salt consumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize t he l ev el of s alt consumption so that it remains at a minimum. To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:

Unscrew the cap from the salt container; There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure to the side), If necessary, rotate the ring in an anticlockwise direc tion from the "-" setting towards the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.

It is recommended that adjustments be made in accordance with the following table:

How to fill rinse aid

Rinse aid

This product makes dishes sparkle and helps them to dry without spotting. The dispenser is located on

the inside panel of the door .

When the low rinse aid indicator “ 1 ” is bright, it means the rinse aid is low, you must load rinse aid .

Loading the rinse aid

Regardless of the type of detergent disp enser i nstalled on

your appliance, you must proceed as indicated below when loading the rinse aid. To open the dispenser, t ur n the "2" cap in an anti-cloc k wis e direction and then pour in the rinse aid, making sure not to overfill. The amount of rinse aid used for each cycle can be regulated by turning the " 3" dose adjustor, located beneath the "2" cap, with a screwdriver. There are 6 dif ferent set tings; the normal dosage setting is 3.

Low

Full

Important

Proper dosage of the rinse aid improves drying. If drops of water remain on the dishes or spotting occurs, the dosage adjuster should be turned to a higher setting. If the dishes have white streaks, turn the dosage adjuster to a lower setting.

How to fill the detergent dispenser

Detergent

Detergent specifically intended for use with dishwash er s m ust

be used. The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the "Programme overv iew". The detergent dis pens er is loc ated on the inside panel of the door.

Loading the detergent

To open the " 4 " cover on the dispenser, press the " 5 "

button. The detergent for the wash cycle should be poured into the " 6 " compartment. The detergent for the pre-wash cycle should be poured into the “ 7 ” compartment. After the detergent has been placed in the dispenser, close the cover and press down until it clicks in place.

Notice:

To facilitate closing the cover, remove any excess detergent on the edges of the dispenser.

Notice:

The usage of 3 in 1 or similar tablets is forbidden when Rapid Wash Heat wash and Soak programmes are selected.

Warning

Do not place the tablets in the tub or the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent doser.

Not suitable for the dishwasher

What you should not put into the dishwasher

Cutlery and t ab lewar e m anuf a c t ur ed in who le or part f r om wood .T hey bec om e faded and unsightly in

appearanc e.Furt hermor e,the adhe siv es that are us ed are not s uitable for t he temper ature t hat occur inside the dishwasher.Delicate decorative glassware and vases, special antique or irreplac eable china. The decorative patterns on such items will not be dishwasher-proof. Plastic obj ects tha t are not resis tan t to h ot w ater , copp er a nd p ewter ut ens ils are al so no t sui tab le. Decorative patterns printed or paint ed onto t he s urface of croc kery, glas ses, etc., alum inium an d silver items tend t o bec om e disc o loured or faded if was hed in the diswasher. S om e types of glass c an bec om e opaque in app ear ance a fter t hey have b een wa shed many times in a di shwa sher . Hi ghly absorb ent materials, such as sponges and towels,should never be placed in the dishwasher.

Our recommendation

In future, only purchase table or kitchenware that has been confirmed as being dishwasher-proof.

Important

Dishes or cutlery that have been soiled by tobacco ash, wax, Iubricating grease or paint, should not be put in the dishwasher.

Damage to glassw are and other dishes

Possible causes

type of glass or manufacturing process

chemical composition of detergent water temperature and duration of dishwasher programme.

Suggested remedy

Use glassware or por cela in dis hes that hav e be en m ark ed ‘d ishwa sher -proof ’ b y the manufacture. Use a mild detergent that is described as ‘kind to dishes’. If necessary, seek further inform ation from detergent manufacturers. Select a programme with a low temperature and a short duration as possible. To prevent damage, take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme has ended.

Arranging crockery, glasses, etc. in the dishwasher

Before placing t he d ish es i n t he dish wash er, r em ove lar ger food particles to pr eve nt t he filter from becoming clogged, which results in reduced performance. If the pots and pans have baked-on food that is extremely hard to remove, we recommend that they are soaked before washed. This will eliminate the need for extra wash cycles. Pull out the rack to load the dishwasher.

Normal daily load

How to use the lower rack

We recommend that you place the most difficult to clean items on the bottom rack: pots, pans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure to the right. It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm.

Pots, serving bowls, etc. must alway s be placed face down. (see fig.C) Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out.

The silver ware ba sket can be doub led ( see fig.D) so that only one section may be us ed whe n t he sil verware lo ad is light. This also makes space for additional pot s and pans and it can also be placed in the upper rack.

Silverware should be placed in the silverware basket wit h the handles at the bottom; if the rack has side bask ets, the spoons should be located individually into the appropriate slots. Especially long utensils should be placed in the hor izontal position at the front of the upper rack.(see fig.D)

Warning

knives and other utensils with sharp points must be loaded in the basket with their points down or placed in a horizontal position.

fig.D

How to use the upper rack

The upper r ack is des igned to ho ld more delic ate and lighter dishware, such as glasses, cups and saucers, plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty).

Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get

moved by the spray of water. The upper r ack c a n be adju s ted for he igh t by using the knobs located on both sides of the rack itself (see fig.E).

Adjust the upper basket to th e hi gh er level and you h av e

more space to accommodate thos e t aller pans and trays in the bottom basket.

How to keep your dishwasher in shape

After Every Wash

After every wash, t urn off the wat er supp ly (not nec essary for mode ls wi t h “Aquas t op” ) t he app lianc e and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.

Remove the p lug

Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.

No solvent s or Abrasive Clean in g P rodu cts

To clean the exte rior and rubb er pa rt s of th e d ishw ash er, do no t use solv ents or abra siv e cle anin g products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little while vinegar, or cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.

Moving the Appliance

If the appliance must be m ov ed, tr y to keep it in a v er t ic al po s it ion. I f absolutely n ec es s ary, it can be positioned on its back.

Seals

One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.

The door s hould not b e left in th e open position si nce thi s could present a trip ping hazard.

When You Go on Holiday

When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and then rem ove the plu g fr om the s ocket , turn of f the wate r s upply and l eave the doo r of the appl ia nce slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.
