Operative Instructions
4) Insert the rack and start a normal washing cycle.
The machine regenerates automatically.
a
WARNING! The washing cycle performed
after the «salt loading» may not work.
5.3.3 Regeneration salt
If the water softener was chosen when configuring the
machine, the glasswasher is supplied with regeneration
salt which will feed the device automatically during the
regeneration process.
You must fill the salt tank every time the message “Refill
salt” is displayed.
- Use only appropriate coarse-grain salt.
- Do not use kitchen salt, crushed salt tabs or other
types different from those indicated, as it may contain
insoluble substances.
- Do not pour cleaning liquids or other solutions in the
salt tank.
a
WARNING! Failure to comply with these
recommendations can lead to a malfunction
of the water softening device. Just before
the salt runs out completely, the display will
show the message «Lack of salt». At this
point, the salt should be topped-up as soon
as possible, otherwise an error message will
appear and it will no longer be possible to
activate a new cycle if not by resetting.
The salt must be introduced through the chamber
outlet inside the tank (4 Fig. 11). To introduce the salt,
unscrew the cap (anti-clockwise) and fill the tank with
salt funnel, paying attention not to pour salt outside
the bowl then close the tank with the cap.
5.3.4 Salt refill
Proceed as follows to refill the salt:
1) Delete the message on the display by pressing the
RESET key for 5 seconds.
2) Open the door and remove any already inserted
load.
3) Loosen the salt tank cap and insert the funnel.
4) In the first filling, introduce 0.13 US gal (0.5 l) of
water to dissolve the residue salt. FIRST FILLING
ONLY
5) Fill with salt up to the edge. The tank contains about
1.5 lbs (0.7 kg) of salt.
6) Thoroughly clean the edge of the salt tank.
7) Tighten the cap again.
8) Run a «Prewash» program to clean the salt residues
inside the wash chamber.
- It is absolutely necessary to remove any salt residues
that may have settled in the chamber after refill and
before rinsing.
- After each top-up, start the «Prewash» program. In
this way, any salt grains will dilute and rinse out. Salt
residues and the overflowing water and salt solution
can cause corrosion if they are not rinsed.
Following the instructions in the chapter "Starting the
Machine", start a «Prewash» program.
Ö
IMPORTANT NOTE! After the salt refill action,
the first wash cycles may fail.
Ö
IMPORTANT NOTE! The "Refill Salt Tank"
alarm may persist for few hours after the salt
refill action, until the brine is being created.
This will not affect the functionality of the
device.
5.3.5 Automatic regeneration
It is possible to have a water softening device that can
completely regenerate at precise intervals. This process
is fully automatic. Regeneration will be implemented
before the selected program is activated.
This device must be preset by the service personnel
during installation.
Regeneration can also be performed manually,
regardless of the warning message on the display.
5.4 Connection of the drain trap
The machine is equipped with a built-in drain trap
which must be mandatorily connected to the drain
system of the building.
The user must carry out periodic maintenance of the
drains and check that they are not clogged.
Before connection:
- supply the water connections with separate shut off
valves;
- flush out the water pipes that are to be connected to
the machine, to prevent clogging of filters and valves;
Procedure:
1) Connect the machine to water connections (Fig. 9).
2) Connect the grey drain pipe to the drain connection
located at the back of the machine.
The correct positioning and sizing of the drain trap are
shown on the installation drawing (see the Installation
Plan).
