w e r

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

A. Set the water softener. B. Pour 1/2 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt. C. Fill the rinse aid dispenser. D. Fill in detergent.

A. Water Softener

The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial. The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is. The 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.

Adjusting Salt Consumption

The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjustment in the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level o f salt consumption.

Please follow the steps below for adjustment in salt consumption.

1. Unscrew the cap from the salt container.

2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see figure on the

side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the anticlockwise direction from the "-" Setting toward the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used. It is recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following scheme:

Note 1

°dH = 1.25 °Clarke = 1.78 °fH = 0.178mmol/l °dH = German degree °fH = French degree °Clarke = British degree

Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.

Note 2

/ = No salt need added – = Setting toward the"-" sign + = Setting toward the"+" sign Mid = Setting toward between the "-" sign and "+" sign

B. Loading the Salt Into the Softener

Always use the salt intended for use with dishwasher. The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as explained in the following:

Attention

• Only use salt specifically designed for the use in dishwashers! Every other type of salt not specifically designed for the use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any damages caused.

• Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

A. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container (1). B. Before the first wash, fill 1lt. of water in the salt container of your machine. C. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1kg of salt.

It is normal for a small amount of water to come out It is of the salt container. (2).

D. After filling the container, screw the cap tightly back clockwise. E. Usually, the salt warning light will stop being illuminated within 2-6 days after the salt container has

been filled with salt.

F. Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (We

suggest to use the soak or rapid program). Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salty water. This is out of warranty.

Note:

1. The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.

Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt container is filled. If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some Models),you can estimate when to fill the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.

2. If there are spills of the salt, a soak or a rapid program should be run to remove the excessive salt.

C. Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

Rinse Aid Dispenser

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 110 ml.

Function of Rinse Aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.

Attention!

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. Dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser

If there is no rinse-aid warning light in the control panel, you can estimate the amount from the colour of the optical level indicator C located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the whole indicator will be dark .As the rinse-aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases. You should never let the rinse aid level fall 1 / 4 full.

As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustrated below.

Full

3 / 4 full

1 / 2 full

1 / 4 full - Should refill to eliminate spotting

Empty

C (Rinse-Aid indicator)

1. To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.

2. Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.

3. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and

turning it to the closed (right) arrow.

NOTE

Clean up any rinse aid spilled while during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excessive foaming during the next wash. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close dishwasher door.

Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always start with the dispenser set on "4". If spots and poor drying are a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "5". If the dishes still are not drying properly or are show spots, adjust the dial to the next higher lever until your dishes are spot-free. The recommended setting is "4". (Factory value is "4".)

NOTE

Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

D. Function of Detergent

Detergents with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out of the dishwasher. Most of the commercial quality detergents are suitable for this purpose.

Detergents

There are 3 sorts of detergents

1. With phosphate and with chlorine

2. With phosphate and without chlorine

3. Without phosphate and without chlorine

Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not be removed completely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature.

Concentrated Detergent

Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:

• conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components

• low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes

The use of normal washing programs in combination with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programs are specifically matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes of the concentrated detergent. For this reason normal wash programs in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using intensive programs.

Detergent Tablets

Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programs. Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.

Detergent Dispenser

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than Conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.
