Before using for the first time
Before using for the first time please
note the following points:
See the relevant chapters for detailed
information on the points below.
Setting the water softener
The water softener unit must be set to
deal with the water hardness level in
your area.
The salt reservoir must also first be
filled with water and then with dish-
washer salt. Never fill with dishwasher
powder detergent.
Filling the salt reservoir with deter-
gent by mistake will cause serious
damage to the water softener.
Please check every time before re-
filling that the package contains
dishwasher salt.
Add rinse aid
Only use rinse aid formulated for do-
mestic dishwashers.
Inadvertently filling the rinse aid reser-
voir with powder or liquid detergent, or
washing up liquid, will cause serious
damage to the reservoir.
Do not use washing up liquid
Only use detergent formulated for do-
mestic dishwashers.
Load the crockery correctly
Load the crockery so that water will
come into contact with all surfaces.
This ensures that they will be properly
cleaned.
The spray arms must not be blocked
by items which are too tall for the bas-
ket or which hang through. If necessary
manually rotate the spray arms to test.
Add the correct amount of detergent
Follow the detergent manufacturer’s
recommendations on how much deter-
gent to use. Not using enough will lead
to poor wash results. The amount to dis-
pense will depend on the type of deter-
gent and programme selected.
Read the notes on dosage given in the
programme chart.
Cleaning results may vary from brand
to brand. If you are not satisfied with
the results from one brand try another
quality brand before contacting the
Customer Service department for ad-
vice.
It is important to choose the correct
programme
The UNIVERSAL programmes are
ideally suited to everyday loads. See
the programme chart for descriptions
of other programmes.
The filter combination in the base of
the wash cabinet and the spray arms
must be kept clean.
These should be regularly inspected
and cleaned if necessary.
