4. BEFORE USING
THE APPLIANCE
4.1. Preparing your
dishwasher for first use
• Make sure the electricity and supply
water specifications match the values
indicated in the installation instructions
for the machine.
• Remove all packaging material inside
the machine.
• Set the water softener level.
• Fill the rinse aid compartment.
4.2 Salt Usage
For a good washing function, the
dishwasher needs soft, i.e. less
calcareous water. Otherwise, white lime
residues will remain on the dishes and the
interior equipment. This will negatively
affect your machine’s washing, drying and
shining performance. When water flows
through the softener system, the ions
forming the hardness are removed from
the water and the water reaches the
softness required to obtain the best
washing result. Depending on the level of
hardness of the inflowing water, these ions
that harden the water accumulate rapidly
inside the softener system. Therefore, the
softener system has to be refreshed so
that it operates with the same performance
also during the next wash. For this
purpose, dishwasher salt is used.
Your machine should only use special
dishwasher salt to soften the water.
Do not use any small grained or powdered
type of salts which are easily soluble.
Using any other type of salt can damage
your machine.
4.3 Fill the salt
To add softener salt, open the salt
compartment cap by turning it counter
clockwise.
(1) (2)
At first use, fill the
compartment with 1 kg salt and water
(3)
until it is almost overflowing. If available,
using a funnel
(4)
will make filling easier.
Replace the cap and close it. After every
20-30 Cycles add salt into your machine
until it fills up (approx. 1 kg).

Only add water to the salt compartment
on first use.
Use softener salt specifically produced for
use in dishwashers.
When you start your dishwasher, the salt
compartment is filled with water, therefore
put the softener salt in prior to starting your
machine.
If the softener salt has overflowed and you
do not start the machine immediately, run
a short washing program to protect your
machine against corrosion.
