Filling with salt
Special salt can be added in one of two ways:
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains
salt, the detergent including the salt is placed in the
detergent compartment.
- In this case the water softener must manually be set to 1
and electronically to 1 to ensure that the special salt is
taken from the detergent container only.
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent and salt separately,
the special salt is to be put into the salt container.
- In this case the water softener must manually be set to 1
or 2 and electronically between 1 and 10 (depending on
the water hardness in your area) to ensure that the
special salt is taken from the salt container only.
Only use salt specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in
a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water
softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the washing
programmes (not the Rinse and Hold programme).
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. Screw on the cap tightly
turning it clockwise until it
stops with a click.
The salt container will require topping up periodically. You are
reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel
which comes on when the salt has finished.
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.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with
salt, this is quite normal.
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring
thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. The
dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110
ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing
programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.
Rinse aid can be added in one of two ways:
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains
rinse aid, the detergent including the rinse aid must be
placed in the detergent compartment.
- In this case the rinse aid inflow must be deactivated.
(See "Deactivation of the inflow of rinse aid").
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent and rinse aid
separately, the rinse aid is to be put into the rinse aid
dispenser.
- In this case the rinse aid dosage must be set in position
from 1 to 6 (see "Adjusting the dose") and the rinse aid
indicator light activated.
Filling with rinse aid
(Rinse aid dispenser type A)
1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The
maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Top up with rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on the
control panel illuminates.
Adjusting the dose
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).
Increase the dose if there are
drops of water or lime spots
on the dishes after washing.
The dose is factory set in
position 4.
Reduce it if there are sticky
whitish streaks on the dishes.
