the instructions on the detergent
packaging.
• Always use the correct quantity of rinse
aid. Insufficient dosage of rinse aid
decreases the drying results. Using too
much rinse aid results in bluish layers
on the items.
• Make sure that the water softener level
is correct. If the level is too high, the
increased quantity of salt in the water
might result in rust on cutlery.
What to do if you want to stop
using multi-tablets
Before you start using separately
detergent, salt and rinse aid, complete the
following steps:
1. Set the highest level of the water
softener.
2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid
containers are full.
3. Start the 30min programme. Do not
add detergent and do not put dishes in
the baskets.
4. When the programme is completed,
adjust the water softener according to
the water hardness in your area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse
aid.
Before starting a programme
Before you start the selected programme,
make sure that:
• The filters are clean and correctly
installed.
• The cap of the salt container is tight.
• The spray arms are not clogged.
• There is enough salt and rinse aid
(unless you use multi-tablets).
• The arrangement of the items in the
baskets is correct.
• The programme is suitable to the type
of load and the degree of soil.
• The correct quantity of detergent is
used.
Loading the baskets
• Always use the whole space of the
baskets.
• Use the appliance to wash dishwasher-
safe items only.
• Do not wash the following materials in
the dishwasher: wood, horn, pewter,
copper, aluminium, delicate
ornamented porcelain and unprotected
carbon steel. This can cause them to
crack, warp, discolour, pit or rust.
• Do not wash in the appliance items that
can absorb water (sponges, household
cloths).
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and
pans) with the opening facing
downwards.
• Make sure that glasses do not touch
each other.
• Put light or plastic items in the upper
basket. Make sure that the items do not
move freely.
• Put cutlery and small items in the
cutlery basket.
• Make sure that the spray arms can
move freely before you start a
programme.
Unloading the baskets
1. Let the tableware cool down before
you remove it from the appliance. Hot
items can be easily damaged.
2. First remove items from the lower
basket, then from the upper basket.
After the programme is
completed, water can still
remain on the inside surfaces
of the appliance.
