If the water input temperature is lower than 40
⁰
C / 104
⁰
F, the times required to reach the operating
temperatures will increase and productivity levels will decrease. The thermo-stop function may extend
the wash cycle times.
In models fitted with this function, the wash cycle may be extended by up to a maximum of 8 minutes, at which
point the rinse cycle will start regardless of the rinse temperature.
Models ADVANCE also have the EFFI-RINSE SYSTEM , which ensures a correct hygienisation temperature at all
times and a constant rinse pressure.
In ADVANCE machines, this function can be activated or deactivated using the User Menu .

9.6.6. SOFT MODELS:
In the SOFT version, the dishwasher is fitted with an inlet water softener system.
If the water hardness is more than 45 ºfH / 31.5 ºeH / 25.2 ºdH, an external descaler must be installed.
The built-in descaler eliminates the water hardness resulting from excess calcium and magnesium, which are the
causes of scale on the appliance.
Before starting the appliance, fill the corresponding reservoir with regeneration salt for descalers (coarse salt, max.
grain size 5 – 7 mm, do not use tablets ) and potable water ( do not use common salt or any other type of liquid ).
To fill the regeneration salt reservoir, proceed as follows:
- Open the door of the appliance.
- Remove the basket from the machine.
- Unscrew the salt reservoir cap located in the upper part of the tub.
- Using a funnel, pour regeneration salt into the reservoir. The first time, fill with 1 kg of regeneration salt and
top up the remaining space with potable water. On subsequent occasions, only add 0.5 kg of regeneration salt,
the reservoir will have the required amount of water.
- Clean the seal and the edges of the reservoir carefully before replacing the cap in order to prevent
oxidisation.
- Replace the cap and tighten securely.
