BASIC INSTRUCTIONS
The following step-by-step instructions will help
you to achieve the best possible results.
FILL THE BASKETS PROPERLY
Your dishwasher features the ASKO Super Cle-
aning System
™
. After the pre-wash, the main
wash is started with clean water and a clean
machine and therefore it is not necessary to rinse
dishware before washing up.
However, remove large particles of food and
waste. This is convenient and environment
friendly.
Place glasses, cups, saucers and small plates in
the upper basket, with long-stemmed glasses
leaning against the recessed rack, and knives in
the knife rack if fitted.
N.B.
Position the soiled surfaces facing downwards
or inwards.
BEFORE USING THE DISHWASHER FOR THE FIRST TIME:
READ THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Read through the operating instructions before
attempting to use the dishwasher, particularly
the sections: Safety, Children’s safety, and Basic
instructions.
BE CAUTIOUS WITH CERTAIN MATERIALS
Read the Delicate wash section before washing
any porcelain or china that has “on-glaze“ dec-
oration, or crystal glassware, or items made of
wood or plastic material.
CHECK THE DOOR SETTING
Ensure that the door of the machine is properly
balanced, ie, open it a little and release it. Does
it stop exactly where you released it? If not, check
the installation instructions or consult the per-
son responsible for the installation.
CHECK HARDNESS OF THE WATER
Call your local water company to find out what
degree of water hardness applies. This has sig-
nificance in relation to the amount of detergent
and rinse aid that should be dispensed.
IF YOUR MACHINE IS EQUIPPED WITH A WATER
SOFTENER
Set the softener when you know what degree of
water hardness applies, see Softener. Fill with
salt before starting the machine, see Salt.
