FIRST TIME USE

SALT, RINSE AID AND DETERGENT

ADVICE REGARDING THE FIRST TIME USE

After installation, remove the stoppers from the racks and the reta-

ining elastic elements from the upper rack.

FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR

The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes and

on the machine’s functional components.

• It is important that the salt reservoir be never empty.

• It is important to set the water hardness.

The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (see Pro-

duct Description) and should be lled when the SALT REFILL indicator

light in the control panel is lit .

1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the

reservoir cap (anticlockwise).

2. Only the rst time you do this: ll the salt re-

servoir with water.

3. Position the funnel (see gure) and ll the salt

reservoir right up to its edge (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.

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can get

into the container during the wash program (this could damage the

water softener beyond repair).

Whenever you need to add salt, it is mandatory to complete the

procedure before the beginning of the washing cycle.

SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS

To allow the water softener to work in a perfect way, it is essential that

the water hardness setting is based on the actual water hardness in

your house. This information can be obtained from your local water

supplier.

The factory setting is for avarage (3) water hardness.

Setting is complete!

As soon as this procedure is complete, run a program without loading.

Only use salt that has been specically designed for dishwashers.

After the salt has been poured into the machine, the SALT REFILL indi-

cator light switches o.

If the salt container is not lled, the water softener and the

heating element may be damaged as a result.

FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER

be lled when when the dark optical indicator on the dispenser door C

becomes transparent.

1. Open the dispenser B by pressing and pulling up the tab on the lid.

2. Pour in the rinse aid (max.110 ml), making sure it does not overow

from the dispenser. 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 DOSAGE OF RINSE AID

If you are not completely satised with the drying results, you can ad-

just the quantity of rinse aid used.

•SwitchthedishwasheronusingtheON/OFF button.

•SwitchitousingtheON/OFF button.

•PressbuttonSTART/PAUSE three times - a beep will be heard.

quantity to be supplied.

• Switch it o using the ON/OFF button

Setting is complete!

If the rinse aid level is set to 1 (ECO), no rinse aid will be supplied.

A maximum of 5 levels can be set according to the dishwasher model. The

factory setting is specic to the model, please follow instruction above to

check this for your machine.

• If you see bluish streaks on the dishes, set a low number (2-3).

• If there are drops of water or limescale marks on the dishes, set a mi-

d-range number (4-5).

FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER

To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device A.

Introduce the detergent into the dry dispenser B only. Place the

amount of detergent for pre-washing directly inside the tub.

1. When measuring out the detergent

refer to the mentioned earlier infor-

mation to add the proper quantity.

Inside the dispenser B there are

indications to help the detergent

dosing.

2. Remove detergent residues from

the edges of the dispenser and clo-

se the cover until it clicks.

3. Close the lid of the detergent di-

spenser by pulling it up until the

closing device is secured in place.

The detergent dispenser automatically opens up at the right time

according to the program.

Do I need to rinse my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? Verified

Rinsing the dishes is not necessary, but you do need to remove any large, hard and fat leftovers. These could clog the drain over time.

This was helpful (1280) Read more

Can I open the dishwasher while it is running? Verified

Most dishwashers are equipped with a water stop, making the program stop immediately when the door is opened and meaning no water will come out. With some models this can cause problems over time. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

Should I open the dishwasher after it finished running to have the dishes dry quicker? Verified

This depends on the type of dishwasher and the location of the dishwasher. Some dishwashers are equipped with a feature that dries the dishes after the washing program. In that case opening the dishwasher will have no added value. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

After the dishwaser has finished its cycle, the plastic dishes are still wet but the rest isn't. Why is that? Verified

Plastic is a bad conductor of heat, allowing the products to cool down quickly. The moisture that remains on it then evaporates far less than for example on ceramics or metal.

Can I connect a dishwasher to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dishwasher, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dishwasher is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord cn handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

This was helpful (666) Read more

Can I put pans with Teflon in the dishwasher? Verified

Yes, you can. However, the pan will wear faster than when it is cleaned by hand. When cleaning a pan with Teflon by hand, never use a scourer but use a soft sponge or cloth.

Can I put wooden objects such as spatulas and cutting boards in the dishwasher? Verified

No. Wooden objects can get damaged or warped in a dishwasher. Also, the wood fibres that come free might damage the dishwasher. Wooden cutting boards are often made with glue that can come loose after being in the dishwasher several times.
