of 25% compared to the declaration programme. As a consequence, it has a very long

running time.

First use

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

• Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instruc-

tions

• Remove all packaging from inside the appliance

• Set the water softener

• Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt

• Fill the rinse aid dispenser

If you want to use combi detergent tablets such as: "3 in 1", "4 in 1", "5 in 1" etc... set the

Multitab function (see "Multitab function").

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 minerals and salts, the harder your water is. Water hardness

is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees (°dH), French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l

(millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water).

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 water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water hardness dial and

electronically.

Use of dishwasher salt

WARNING!

Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. All other types of salt not spe-

cifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water soft-

ener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This

will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilt, remaining on the

bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

To fill:

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap of the salt container by

turning it anticlockwise.

2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with

salt for the first time) .

3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt

until the container is full.

4. Replace the cap making sure that there is

no trace of salt on the screw thread or on

the gasket.

5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clock-

wise until it stops with a click.

Do not worry if water overflows from the unit

when filling with salt, this is quite normal.

The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after the

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 machine is

not affected.

Use of rinse aid

WARNING!

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers.

Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent,

liquid detergent). This would damage the appliance.

Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse.

Use of dishwasher salt 9

1. Open the container by pressing the release

button (A).

2. Add the rinse aid in the container. The

maximum level for filling is indicated by

"max".

The dispenser holds about 110 ml of rinse

aid, which is sufficient for between 16 and

40 dishwashing cycles, depending upon

the dosage setting.

3. Ensure that the lid is closed after every re-

fill.

Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with

an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming

during the next wash.

Adjusting the dosage of rinse aid

According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means

of the 6 position selector (position 1= minimum dosage, position 6= maximum dosage).

The dose is factory set in position 4.

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 or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.
