Even if you use tablets which
include salt functionality, you
must still add regeneration salt

effective enough at softening

At first time use, the salt reservoir has to be filled independently from water hardness level (see description below in step 1 “Daily check”).

(not necessary when you use tablets). How to adjust the rinse aid dosage regulator
Daily check
Visual
2
Check the rinse aid indicator to check the level
into the dispenser.
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 the dial to a lower setting (1-3). If crockery is not perfectly dry: increase 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 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.
