Prior to using the machine for the first time

• Check whether the electricity and supply water specifications match the values indicated by the installation

instructions for the machine.

• Remove all packaging materials inside the machine.

• Set the water softener.

• Add 1 kg salt into the salt compartment and fill with water up to a level at which it will almost overflow.

• Fill the rinse aid compartment.

PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE

 

The importance of water decalcification

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 machines’ 

washing, drying and shining performance. For this reason, a softener system used on dishwashers. 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.

Filling with salt

Use  softener  salt  specifically  produced  for  use  in 

dishwashers. To add softener salt, first remove the 

lower  basket and then open the salt compartment 

cap  by  turning  it  counter  clockwise.

(1) (2)

 At  first 

use fill the  compartment with 1 kg salt and water 

(3)

 

at overflowing level If available. Using a funnel 

(4)

 

will make filling easier. After every 20th-30th wash, 

add salt into your machine until it fills up (approx. 

1 kg). Fill the salt compartment with water at first 

use only. We recommend to use small grained or 

powder softener salt. Do not put table salt into your 

machine,  otherwise  the  function  of  the  softener   

compartment may decrease over time. When you 

start the machine, the salt compartment gets filled 

with  water. There  fore,  put  the  softener  salt  prior 

to  starting  your  machine.  This  way,  overflowing 

salt  gets  immediately  cleaned  up  through  the 

wash  operation.  If  you  will  not  wash  any  dishes 

immediately  after  putting  salt,  then  run  a  short 

washing program with an empty machine in order 

to avoid corrosion on your machine due to the salt 

overflow while filling in the salt container. In order

to  understand  whether  or  not  the  amount  of     

softener salt in machine is sufficient, check the transparent section on the salt compartment cap. There is 

sufficient salt if the transparent section is green. Salt has to be added if it is not green.

Testing strip

The washing effectiveness of your machine depends on the softness of the tap water. For this reason,

your machine is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in mains water supply. The

washing effectiveness will increase when the system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness

level of water in your area, contact your local water board or determine water hardness level by using

the test strip(if available).

CHAPTER -4: PREPARING THE MACHINE FOR USE
