Before use

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

ensure that the electrical and water

☞

connections comply with the installation
instructions

remove all packaging from inside the appliance

☞

set the water softener

☞

fill the salt container

☞

fill the rinse aid dispenser.

☞

Setting the water softener

The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener
designed to remove minerals and salts from the
water supply, which would have a detrimental or
adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder
your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales,
for example German, French degrees, and parts
per million.

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.

The dishwasher is factory set at level 2.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener

should be adjusted.

Filling with salt

If your water is "level 0" it is already soft and
therefore there is no need to use salt.

Salt must be used from level 1 upward.
Only use salt specifically designed for use in

dishwashers.
Other types of salt may reduce the efficiency of the

softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the

complete washing programmes (not the Rinse and
Hold programme).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.

To fill:

☞

➀ To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt

container.

➁ Pour about 1 litre of water inside the container,

or until it is full (this is necessary only before
filling with salt for the first time).

➂ Then using the funnel provided, pour in the salt

until the container is full (approx. 1.5 - 1.8 kg).
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit

when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

➃ Replace the cap making sure that there is no

trace of salt on the screw thread or on the

gasket.
➄ Screw on the cap tightly.
The salt container will require topping up

periodically.

SALT

SALZ

SEL

The “Salt refill” indicator light on the control panel
will illuminate when the salt has finished, and
requires refilling. The salt container has always
some water inside which will normally overflow
when refilling with salt.

The “Salt refill” indicator light can remain
illuminated for 2 - 6 hours after salt has
been replenished, assuming the
dishwasher remains switched on. If you
are using salts that take longer to
dissolve then this can take longer. The
function of the dishwasher is not affected.

Rinse aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last
rinse, ensuring through rinsing, spot and streak
free drying. The dispenser, which is positioned
inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid,
which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing
programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.

Filling with Rinse Aid:

➀ Open the container by turning the lid (A)

anticlockwise.

A

➁ Add the rinse aid until the container is

completely full (approx. 110 ml). The indicator
(B) will be completely dark.

➂ Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B)

becomes clear.

Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.

Do not put liquid detergent in the rinse aid
department. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during
filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess
foaming during the next wash.

Adjusting the dose

According to the finish and drying results obtained,
adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6
position selector (C) (position 1 minimum dosage,
position 6 maximum dosage). (Start from position

3). Gradually increase the dose if there are drops
of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing.
Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the
dishes.

Use of detergent

Only use detergents specifically designed
for use in dishwashers.

To fill the dishwasher with detergent proceed
as follows:

➀ Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D).
➁ Add the detergent according to the

recommendations in the programme chart. As

all detergents are not the same, you should

also consult the instructions on the packet

specially for tablets.

To help correctly dose the right amount of

detergent, inside the container there are two

reference marks:

- MIN = 15 ml

- MAX = 30 ml

➂ Always close the lid.
➃ If the programme has a prewash add the

required detergent over the lid of the dispenser.

Insufficient quantities of detergent will
produce poor washing results, whereas an
excessive amounts of detergent will not
improve washing results and is also wasteful.
Using no more than the correct amount also
contributes to reducing pollution.

Phosphate free detergents with enzymes

In these low-alkaline compact powders the
environment unfriendly components have been
replaced by natural enzymes and other more
biodegradable substances.
The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving power
at a temperature as low as 50°C.
By choosing the Bio-programme you can therefore
achieve the same cleaning results that would
otherwise be achievable only with 65°C
programmes and conventional detergents.
These new compact powders are generally
phosphate-free.
These new compact powders are generally
phosphate-free.
As phosphates have water softening properties, we
suggest you add salt to the salt container even if
the hardness of your water is as low as 4°dH
(7°TH).
This will avoid lime deposits on crockery and the
inner tub.
