PART 4: BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Preparing your dishwasher for first
use
• Make sure the electricity and supply water
specifications match the values indicated in the
installation instructions for the machine.
• Remove all packaging material inside the
machine.
• Set the water softener level.
• Fill the rinse aid compartment.
Salt usage
For a good washing function, the dishwasher needs
soft, i.e. less calcareous water. Otherwise, White lime
residues will remain on the dishes and the interior
equipment. This will negatively affect your machine’s
washing, drying and shining performance. When
water flows through the softener system, the ions
forming the hardness are removed from the water
and the water reaches the softness required to
obtain the best washing result. Depending on the
level of hardness of the inflowing water, these ions
that harden the water accumulate rapidly inside the
softener system. Therefore, the softener system has
to be refreshed so that it operates with the same
performance also during the next wash. For this
purpose, dishwasher salt is used.
Machine can only be used by special dishwasher salt
to soften the water. Do not use any small grained
or powdered type of salts which can easily soluble.
Using any other type of salt can damage your
machine.
Fill the salt
When you want to add water softening salt, open the
salt compartment cover by rotating it anticlockwise.

filling easier.
Close the cover after the filling. (

) Refill the salt container to make it
full again. (

) Launch a short programme. Now the
dishwasher is ready to be used.
When salt is running out, an indicator will light up
on the display. In this case refill the salt and always
launch a short programme afterwards, this will
prevent corrosion from forming in the dishwasher.

!!!
The salt compartment should only be filled with
water when the appliance is used for the first
time.
Only salt intended for use in dishwashers should
be used.
When salt overflows and gets out of the salt
container, launch a short washing programme
to protect the dishwasher from corrosion.
Otherwise there is a risk of corrosion forming in
the dishwasher.
