Never without salt
Loading the salt.
Always use salt which is intended
for dishwasher use.
The salt container is situated
underneath the lower rack, fill it
up as follows:
1.Pull out the lower rack
completely, unscrew and
remove the container cap
2. Is it the first time you load the
salt? First fill the container up
with water (you won't have to
do this again next time)
3. Put the dishwasher funnel on the
hole and pour in approximately
two kilos of salt. It is normal
that some water comes out of
the container.
4. Screw the cap back in place
carefully.

When should I load the salt?
Low Salt Indicator
This green device is located at the
centre of the cap for the
decalcification cartridge and it
indicates whether the container is
full.
When the indicator is not visible it
means that the supply of salt must
be replenished (see the section
entitled, "Loading the salt").
Intelligent salt.
Your dishwasher can adjust its salt
consumption according to the
hardness of the water in your home.
This way, you can optimise and
customise your dishwasher's salt
consumption (not too much, nor too
little).
To adjust salt consumption, do as
follows:
1. Unscrew the salt container cap
2. There is an arrow on the neck of
the container (see figure): if
necessary, turn the arrow anti-
clockwise from the "-" setting
to the "+" setting.
You don't know
how hard the
water in your
home is? Ask the
company that
supplies water in
your area.
Water hardness varies according to where you live. If the water in your home is
hard, without water softening, incrustations would form on your dishes. Your
dishwasher is fitted with a water softener which uses special salt to get rid of
limescale in the water.
Using your electric household appliances
wisely helps you make savings and is
good for the environment.
Savings are easy
Maximum load.
To optimise consumption levels, try to use the
dishwasher with a full load only. If it takes
quite some time to fill up your dishwasher,
use the soak cycle to avoid the formation of
bad odours and caked-on food.
The right wash cycle.
Select the most suitable wash cycle for the
type of load you have placed in the dishwasher.
The choice of wash cycle depends on the type
of dishes to wash and on how dirty they are.
To select the right wash cycle, please consult
the wash cycle table on page 5.
How to look after and protect the dishes you hold dear
■
For particularly delicate dishes,
we recommend you use the
specific wash cycle offered by
your dishwasher.
Suggestions and advice for you.
Apart from
making you save
time and energy,
your dishwasher
disinfects your
dishes, washing
them at a high
temperature.
■
Silver plates and serving dishes
should be washed immediately
after use, especially if they have
contained salt, eggs, olives,
mustard, vinegar, fruit juices
and cooked vegetables.
■
Almost all silverware can be
cleaned in a dishwasher.
There are two exceptions: old
silverware and silverware
decorated with an oxidising
agent. Hot water can loosen
the handles on old silverware
ad wear off the decorations on
the other.
Never let silverware come into
contact with other metals: you
will thus avoid stains and
blackening
To prevent rust
from forming, load
the salt just before
beginning a wash
cycle.
