Rinse aid and refined salt
Only use products which have been specifically
EN
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
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
panel is illuminated;
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 obtai-
ned from the organisation which supplies your household with
water.- Open the door and switch on the machine by pressing
the ON/OFF button.
- Press the P button and hold for approximately 5 seconds; two
short beeps will sound and the indicator light corresponding to
the set degree of hardness will flash slowly on the control panel
(the water softening system is set to number 3).
- Press the P button repeatedly until the desired hardness level
has been reached (1-2-3-4-5

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
the cap of the salt dispenser.
• When the LOW SALT
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
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
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. (Salt cap with 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.
