Filling with salt
Special salt can be added in one of two ways:
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent that already
contains salt, the detergent including the salt is placed in
the detergent compartment.
- In this case the water softener must manually be set to 1
and electronically to 1 to ensure that the special salt is
taken from the detergent container only.
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent and salt separately,
the special salt is to be put into the salt container.
- In this case the water softener must manually be set to 1
or 2 and electronically between 1 and 5 (depending on
the water hardness in your area) to ensure that the
special salt is taken from the salt container only.
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 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.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with
salt, this is quite normal.
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.
Rinse aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse,
ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.
The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds
about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40
dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage
setting.
Rinse aid can be added in one of two ways:
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent that already
contains rinse aid, the detergent including the rinse aid is
placed in the detergent compartment.
- In this case the rinse aid compartment must be empty
and the rinse aid indicator light deactivated.
If in the rinse aid dispenser there is still rinse aid you
must wait until it has finished before using detergent that
contains rinse aid.
●
If you are using dishwasher detergent and rinse aid
separately, the rinse aid is to be put into the rinse aid
dispenser.
- In this case the rinse aid dosage must be set in position
from 1 to 6 (see "Adjusting the dose") and the rinse aid
indicator light activated.
Filling with rinse aid
(Rinse aid dispenser type A)
1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).
2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The
maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".
Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.
Top up with rinse aid when the rinse aid indicator light on the
control panel illuminates.
Adjusting the dose
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the
dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position
1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).
Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on
the dishes after washing.
The dose is factory set
in position 4.
Reduce it if there are
sticky whitish streaks on
the dishes.
