Rinse aid and refined salt

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.

Measuring out 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:

• When the LOW RINSE AID

* indicator light on the control

panel is illuminated;

• when the indicator (H) lights up on the container.

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 dry

cloth.

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 drying results, you

may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a screwdriver to

turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6 pre-set positions (the

default position is set to 4):

• If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustment device

to a lower number (1-3).

• If drops of water remain on the crockery or if there are limescale

marks present after the cycle has finished, set the adjuster to a

higher number (4-6).

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 the organisation which supplies your household with water.

- Switch the machine off using the ON/OFF button and open the

door.

- Set the SELECT WASH CYCLE knob first to wash cycle 5, then

to wash cycle 1, then to wash cycle 5 again.

- Press the ON/OFF button; the wash cycle phase indicator

lights will flash. It is now possible to select the water hardness

level. There is a water hardness level for every wash cycle:

E.g.: wash cycle 1, water hardness level 1

wash cycle 2, water hardness level 2, etc. etc., up to a maximum

of five levels.

(The default water softener setting is level 3).

- To exit the function, wait a few seconds or press one of the

option buttons

*, or switch off the machine using the ON/OFF

button.

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 achieve the best possible results using 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 control panel is

illuminated;

1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the

container 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 container right up to its edge (this should hold approximately

1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak out.

4. Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt residue 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 cracks which are arranged in a star shape on the lower part

of the cap. (the container cap with the green float

It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add

salt to the container.

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.
