Only use products which have been
specifically designed for dishwashers.
Do not use table salt or 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 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
remain lit.
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.
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance
tub.
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 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 necessary, measure out the salt before a
wash cycle so that any saline solution which has leaked
out of the salt dispenser is removed.
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.
(°dH = hardness measured in German degrees - °f =
hardness measured in French degrees - mmol/l =
millimoles per litre)
The default setting of the water softening system is +.
- If using multi-functional tablets fill the salt dispenser and
set the adjuster to -; if the hardness of the water is greater
than 60°fH, set it to +.
