The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.

buttons 2 and 3 for about 2 seconds. All the indicator lights 
will turn off (except for the On/Off indicator light).

2. Press simultaneously function push buttons and 3, until 

the indicator lights of the function push buttons 1and 3
start flashing.

3. Press the function push button 1, the indicator lights of 

function push buttons and turn off while the indicator 
light of the push button goes on flashing, at the same time 
the end of programme indicator light starts to flash.
The current level is indicated by the number of flashes of 
the end of programme indicator light.
Example: 5 flashes = level 5

4. To change the level, press push button 1. Each time the 

push button is pressed the level changes. (For the selection 
of the new level see the chart).

Examples:
if the current level is 5, by pressing push button once, 
level 6 is selected.
if the current level is 10, by pressing push button once, 
level 1 is selected.

5. To memorise the operation, switch off the dishwasher by 

pressing the On/Off push button or wait about 60 seconds 
after which the dishwasher will automatically return to 
setting mode.

Filling with salt

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 complete
washing programmes. 
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.
