The hardness of the wa ter varie s from place to plac e. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, de posits will form on the dish es and utensils. The applian ce is equipped with a sp ecial softener that uses a salt container specifically des igned to eliminate lime and minera ls from the water. Always u se salt intended for dishwasher use. The salt co ntain er is located beneath the lowe r basket and sh ould be filled as explained in t he foll owing: Warning! Only use salt spe cif ically desi gne d for d ishwa shers u se! Every ot he r type o f salt n ot speci fically d esig ned fo r dishwashe r use, e specially table salt, wil l damage the w ater sof tene r. I n case of d amages caused by the use o f unsuitable salt t he ma nuf act ure r doe s not g ive any wa rranty no r is liable for a ny damag es cau sed.

Other wise the filt er system, pump or ot her important parts of t he machine may be damaged by salty water. This is out of warranty.

1. The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.

Depending on how well the salt dissolve s, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt container is filled. If there is no salt w arning light in the con trol panel (for some Mode ls),you can estimate when to fill the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.

2. I f salt has spilled, run a soak or qu ick prog ram to r emo ve it.

C. Filling the Rinse Aid Dispenser Rinse Aid Dispenser The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside, on the door and next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 110m l. Function of Rinse Aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, a s pot and streak free drying. Warning! Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dis penser with any other substances (e.g. Di shwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). Th is would damage the app liance. When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser U nless the rins e-aid warning light on the control pan el is on, you can alw ays estimate the amount from the color of the optical level indicator ""C""locate d next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full, the indicator w ill be fully dark. Th e size of the dark d ot de creases as th e rinse-aid diminish es. You s hould never let the rinse aid level be less than 1/4 full. As the rinse aid d iminishes, the size o f the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illustra ted b elow. Full 3 / 4 full 1 / 2 full 1 / 4 full - Should refill to eliminate spotting Empty

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out. C areful ly pour in the r inse-aid in to its dispenser, whil st avoiding i t to overflo w. Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow. C lean up any spilled rin se a id w ith an a bsorbent cloth to avoid e xcessive foaming during the next wash. Don't forget to re place the cap be fore you c lose the dish was her door.. Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser The rinse aid dispenser has six or four settings. Always st art with the dispenser set on "4". If spot s and poor drying are a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "5". If the dishes still are not drying properly o r show spots, adjust the dial t o the next higher lever until your dishes are sp ot-free. The recommended setting is "4". (Factory value is "4".) I ncrease the dose if there are drops of water o r lime spots on the di shes after washing. Reduce i t if there are sticky whitis h stains on your dish es o r a bluish fil m on glassware or knife blades. The chemical ingredients that compose the detergent are necessary to remove, crush and dispense all dirt out of the di shwashe r. Most of the commercial qualit y detergents are suitable for this purpose. Warning! Proper Use of Detergent Use only detergent specifically m ade for the use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powdered detergent into the dispenser u ntil you're re ady to wash dish es. Detergents There are 3 sorts of d etergents 1.With phosphate and with ch lorine 2.With phosphate and without chlorine 3.Withou t phosphate and without chlorine Normally new pulverised detergent is with out phosphate. T hus the water softener fu nction of phospha te is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt con taine r even w hen the hardness of water is only 6 °dH. If dete rgents w itho ut phosphate are used in the case of hard water often white spots appear on d ishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. S tron g and coloured spots will not be removed com pletely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature. Concentrated Detergent Based on their chem ical com position, deterge nts can be split in two basic types: co nventional, alkaline dete rgents w ith caus tic comp onents low alkalin e co ncentrated detergen ts with n atural enzym es Detergent Tablets Dete rgent tablets of diffe rent brands disso lve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop the ir full cleaning power during short prog rams. There fore please use long program s wh en u sin g deterg ent tablets, to ensure the complete rem oval of detergent residua ls. Detergent Dispenser The dispenser m ust be re filled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the w ash cycle table . Your dis hwa sher uses less de tergent and rinse aid than Conventiona l dis hwa sher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Alway s ad d the detergent just be fore starting the dish was her, otherwise it could get damp and w ill not dissolve properly. Amount of Detergent to Use Push latch to open De tergen t pow der De tergen t table t If the lid is closed: press release button. T he lid will spring open. Always add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle. Only use branded detergent aid for dishwasher. Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of reach of children. Filling the detergent dispenser

P lace the pre- was h cy cle d etergen t here. Plea se o bserve the m anufact urers do sing and storage Recomm endations as stated on the detergent pac kagi ng. C lose the lid a nd p ress on it un til it locks into place. If the dishes are heavily soiled, place an a dditiona l detergent do se in the pre-wash detergent chamber. This detergent will take effe ct during the pre-wash phas e. You will find in form atio n about the amount of deterg ent for the single pro gram me on page 14. Be aware that depend ing on the soiling of water, se tting may be different. Please observe th e manufacturer's rec ommendations on the de tergent packaging. Consider buying utensils which are identified as dishwasher-proof. Use a mild detergent that is described as 'kind to dishes'. If necessary, seek further information from the detergent manufacturers. For particular items, select a program w ith t he lowes t po ssible te mpe rature. To prevent damage, do not take gla ss a nd c utlery out of the dishwasher immediately after the programme has ended. Are not suitable Are of limited suitability Cutlery with wooden, horn china or mother-of-pearl handles Plast ic items that are not heat resistant Older cutlery with glued parts that are not temperature resistant Bonded cutlery items or dishes Pewter or copper items Crystal glass Steel items subject to rusting Wooden platters Items made from synthetic fibres Some types of glasses can become dull after a large number of washes Silver and aluminum parts have a tendency to discolour during washing Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed frequently (For best performance of the dishwasher, follow the se loading guide lines. Features and appearance of baske ts and cutlery ba skets may vary from your model.) Scrape off any larg e amounts o f leftover food. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans. It is not necess ary to rinse the d ishes under running water. Place objects in the dishwasher in following way: 1.Item s such as cups, glasses, pots /pans, etc. a re faced dow nwards. 2.Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so th at water can run off. 3.All utensils are stacked securely and can not tip over. 4.All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing. Very sm all items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket. Load hollow items suc h as cups, gl asses, pans etc. With the opening facing downwards so that water can not collect in the container or a deep b ase. D ishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each oth er. To avoid damage , gla sse s should not touch on e an oth er. Load large a nd difficult t o cle an i tems in t he lower basket. The upper basket is designed to ho ld m ore delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses , coffee and tea cups Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential haza rd! Long and/or sharp item s o f cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket. P lease do not ove rload your dishwasher. T his is important for good results and for reasonab le consumption of energy. To prevent water dripping from the uppe r basket into the lower basket, we recommend that you empty the lower basket first, follow ed b y th e upper basket. The u pper basket is designed to hold m ore delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, sm all bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too dirty). Position the dishe s an d co okw are so that they w ill not get moved by the spray of w ate r. We suggest that you place large items and the most di fficult to clea n ite ms int o the low er b asket: such as pots, p ans, lids, serving dishes and bowls, as shown in the figure be low. It is preferable to place serving di shes and lids on the side of the ra cks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of th e to p spray arm. Th e m axim um diam eter advised for plates in front of the detergent dispense r is of 19 cm, this not to hamper the opening of it Please be reminded that: Pots, serving bowls, etc, must alw ays be placed to p down. D eep pots should be slan ted to allow water to flow out. The B otto m Basket features fo lding spikes so that larger or more pots and pans can be loade d. The height of th e up per rack can be easi ly ad just ed to accommodate taller dishes in ei ther the uppe r an d lower rac k. The height o f the upper basket can be adjusted by placing the wheels on d ifferent height of therails. For better stacking of cups, the shelves can be folded down a s sh owe d on the picture below. Fo r better stacking of pots and pans, the spikes can be folded dow n as show on the picture be low. C utlery should be pla ced in the cutlery rack separatelyfrom each other in the ap propriate pos itio ns, and do m ake sure th e utensils do not nest together, this mayca use bad performance. For a top quality cleaning, place the silverware in the basket making sure that: They do not nest together. Silverware is placed with the male face up. Long utensils in the middle. Do not let any item extend through bottom. Always load sharp utens ils with the sharp pointing down!
