Before the first use

When using separate special (dishwasher) salt, rinse aid and detergent:

-add special (dishwasher) salt

-fill up with rinse aid

When using tablets that integrate rinse aid and detergent:

-set the water softener

-add special (dishwasher) salt

Setting the water softener

When using tablets that integrate rinse aid, detergent, salt function and other additives:

there is no need to fill up with special salt or rinse aid.

Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. Follow the manufacturers instructions.

- Set the water hardness to level 1.

IMPORTANT!

If the drying results are not satisfactory we recommend that you:

1.Fill up the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.

2.Set the rinse aid dosage to position 2.

If you decide in future to use separated detergents, we advise that you:

-Fill up the salt and rinse aid container.

-Adjust the water hardness setting to the highest level and perform 1 normal washing programme without loading any dishes.

-Adjust the water hardness setting according to the hardness of the water in your area.

-Adjust the rinse aid dosage

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 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.

IMPORTANT!

The water softener must be set in both ways: manually and electronically.
