Rinse aid and refined salt

Only use products which have been specifically designed

for dishwashers.
Do not use table/industrial salt or washing-up liquid.
Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add

any rinse aid. However,

we recommend that you add salt,

especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or
very hard.

(Follow the instructions given on the packaging).

If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT

and

LOW RINSE AID indicator lights will stay lit.

Measuring out the rinse aid

Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water runs off

the surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks
or marks. The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:

• When the LOW RINSE AID indicator light

on the control panel

is illuminated, a reserve supply of rinse aid is still available

for 1-2 cycles;

1. Open the dispenser

“D”

by pressing and pulling up the tab

on the lid;

2. Carefully introduce the rinse aid as far as the maximum

reference notch of the filling space - avoid spilling it. If this
happens, clean the spill immediately with a dry cloth.
3. Press the lid down until you hear a click to close it.

NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.

Adjusting the amount of rinse aid

If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you
may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Switch on and off the

dishwasher using the ON/OFF button. Press the

button three

times. Press the ON/OFF button, the set level appears on the

display

(set to factory level).

Adjust the rinse aid supply level with the

button.

Press the ON/OFF button to save the adjustment setting.

The rinse aid level can be set to ZERO, in such a case the rinse

aid will not be supplied and the low rinse aid indicator light in
case of running out.
A maximum of 4 levels can be set according to the dishwasher
model.

• If there are streaks on the crockery, set to a low number (1-2).
• In case of drops of water or limescale marks, set to a high

number number (3-4).

Setting the water hardness

Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by
using refined salt designed especially for this type of appliance,
supplies water without limescale which is then used to wash
the crockery.
This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce pollution
and optimises washing performance in accordance with the
water hardness level in your area. This information can be
obtained from your local water supplier.

Switch on and off the dishwasher using the ON/OFF button. Press

and hold the

button for a few seconds until you hear a beep.

Switch on the dishwasher with the ON/OFF button, the set level

appears on the display

(water softener set to medium level).

Adjust the water hardness level with the

button,

(1-2-3-4-5

see water hardness table)

up to a max. of 5 levels.

Press the ON/OFF button to save the adjustment setting.

Even if using multi-functional tablets, the salt dispenser should
still be filled.

(°dH = hardness measured in German degrees - °f = hardness
measured in French degrees – mmol/l = millimoles per litre)

Measuring out the refined salt

In order to obtain the best possible results from a wash cycle,
make sure that the salt 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 RINSE AID indicator light on the control panel

is illuminated

;

1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the cap (anticlockwise).

2. The first time you do this: fill the water

tank right up to its edge.
3. Position the funnel

(see figure)

and

fill the salt dispenser up to the edge

(approximately 1 kg). It is normal for a

little water to leak out.

4. Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt

residues away from the opening; rinse the cap under running
water and then screw it on, the head facing downwards so as to
let the water flow out of the four slots (star-shaped arrangement)
in the lower part of the cap (cap with green float

It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add
salt to the dispenser.

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly so that no detergent can
get into the container during the wash cycle (this could damage
the water softener beyond repair).

When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash cycle

so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the salt
dispenser is removed.

Only available in selected models.
