go to step 3
Even if you use tablets which include salt,
go to step 1
if extra salt is needed go
to step 1 and then 3
you must still add salt since such
detergents are not effective enough at
softening hard water.

Dissolve limescale (not necessary if water hardness level is set to “soft”!)
Daily check
The salt level indicator lamp may remain lit for the duration of several wash cycles. If the
water hardness level falls within category (soft), no salt is required.

Rinse aid
indicator (depending on model)
Only use rinse aids recommended for use in domestic dishwashers. Immediately wipe away any rinse aid spilt accidentally. This p revents the formation of excess suds which can cause a fault function of the appliance.
If there are streaks: reduce the dosage by turning the dial to a lower setting (1-3). If crockery is not perfectly d ry : incr e a s e the dosage by turning the dial to a higher setting (5-6). Plastic dishes have more difficulty drying and a higher rinse aid
setting will not improve the situation.
Detergents with rinse aid incorporated may be effective only with longer programmes. In the case of shorter programmes, detergent residue may be a problem (if necessary, use powder detergent). Detergents with rinse aid incorporated tend
to form excess suds.
