 Only use products that have been specifically

designed for dishwashers.
Do not use table salt or industrial salt.

!

 If using a multi-functional product (2-in-1, 3-in-1, 4-in-1) it

is not necessary to add rinse aid; however, we
recommend that you add salt, especially if you live in
an area where the water is hard or very hard. If you do
not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and LOW
RINSE AID* indicator lights will flash continuously.

Loading the rinse aid

Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as
water runs off surfaces more readily and therefore
does not leave streaks or marks.
The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:

whenever the indicator light (H) signals that it is
empty. Illuminated light: add rinse aid; unlit light:
there is no shortage of rinse aid in the dispenser.

when the LOW RINSE AID* indicator light on the
panel flashes;

1. Open the dispenser by
turning the lid (G) in an
anticlockwise direction.
2. Pour in the rinse aid,
making sure it does not
overflow from the

dispenser. If this happens,
clean the spill immediately
with a sponge.
3. Screw the lid back on.

Adjusting the amount of rinse aid

If you are not completely satisfied with the washing or
drying results, you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid
used. Use a screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster to
one of the 6 pre-set positions (the default position is
set to 4):

if there are white streaks on the crockery, set the
adjuster to a lower number (1-3).

if drops of water remain on the crockery or there
are limescale marks present after the cycle has
finished, set the adjuster to a higher number (4-6).

!

 If you are using multi-functional tablets (2-in-1, 3-in-1,

4-in-1) and you wish to further improve the drying
performance of the appliance, fill the dispenser and
set the dosage adjuster to 2.

Loading the refined salt

In order to obtain the best possible results from a
wash cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never
empty. Refined salt removes limescale from the water,
thus avoiding the formation of deposits on crockery.
The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the
dishwasher (

see Description) and should be filled:

when the green float* cannot be seen by simply

looking at the cap of the salt dispenser;

when the LOW SALT* indicator light on the panel
flashes;

if your machine is not equipped with an indicator
light or a green float:
approximately every 30 wash cycles;

1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the cap of the

dispenser (in an anti-clockwise
direction).
2. For the first wash cycle only:
fill the dispenser up to the
edges with water.
3. Position the funnel provided
correctly (

see figure) and fill

the salt dispenser up to the

edges (approximately 2 kg); it is normal for a little
water to leak out.
4. Remove the funnel, wipe away any salt residue from
the thread and screw the cap on tightly, so that
detergent does not leak into the dispenser during the
wash cycle (this could damage the water softening
system beyond repair).

!

 When salt has been added, run a wash cycle

immediately, without crockery, in order to remove any
salt solution that has leaked out and to avoid
corrosion.

Adjusting the amount of salt*

It is possible to adjust the amount of salt used
according to the hardness of the water in your area
(this information is available from your local water
board).

1. Unscrew the dispenser cap.
2. Turn the arrow on the neck of the dispenser (

see

figure) towards the + or - symbols, using the table
below as a guide.
The default setting of the water softening system is +.

If using multi-functional tablets (2-in-1, 3-in-1, 4-in-1) fill
the salt dispenser and set the adjuster to -; if the
hardness of the water is greater than 60°fH, set it to +.
