a level indicator

integrated in the

cap (see below

how to check).

Once regeneration salt is added, immediately start a wash program (the “Pre-wash” program alone is not sufficient).

Residual saline solution or grains of salt can lead to deep-down corrosion, irreparably damaging the stainless steel components.

Water hardness level is factory

set for medium-hard water

(level 4).

Even if you use tablets which

include salt functionality, you

must still add regeneration salt

since such detergents are not

effective enough at softening

hard water.

At first time use, the salt

reservoir has to be filled

independently from water

hardness level (see description

below in step 1 “Daily check”).

Fill the salt reservoir with water

before the first wash only.

Daily check

Check the rinse aid indicator to check the level

into the dispenser.

(depending on the model)

Rinse aid indicator on the control panel Rinse aid indicator on the dispenser

The indicator lamp lights up when RINS E AID NEEDS

TO BE ADDED.

dark: OK. clear: NEEDS TO BE ADDED

Only use rinse aids recommended for use in domestic dishwashers. Immediately wipe away any rinse aid spilt accidentally. This prevents the formation of excess suds which can cause a fault function of the

appliance.

If there are streaks: reduce the dosage by turning t he dial to a lower setti ng (1-3). If crockery is not perfectly dry: increase th e dosage by turning the dial to a higher setting (5- 6). Plastic di shes have more diff iculty

drying and a higher rinse aid setting will not improve the situation.

Detergents with rinse aid incorporated may be effective only with longer programs. In the case of shorter programs, detergent residue may be a problem (if necessary, use powder detergent). Detergents with

rinse aid incorporated tend to form excess suds.
