Refill salt indicator
When the salt needs topping up, the above symbol lights
on the display.
When the salt runs out, unscrew the cap and fill the contain-
er with salt. Water is only needed the first time! Wipe clean
and tighten. Run a program to ensure that any salt in the
dishwasher is rinsed away.
After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes

Setting the rinse aid dosage
The chapter Settings describes how to set rinse aid amount.
The rinse aid amount can be set from 0 (Off) to 5 (High
dose). (Factory settings: 5)
Reduce the rinse aid dosage:
•
If the dishes have a sticky white/blue film.
•
If the dishes are streaked.
•
Heavy foaming. If you have very soft water, the rinse
aid can be diluted 50:50 with water.
Loading the dishwasher
Energy-efficient dishwashing
•
Do not start the dishwasher until it is fully loaded to save
energy.
•
Do not rinse under running water. Simply scrape off
large food particles before loading the dishwasher.
•
Choose an environmentally-friendly detergent. Read the
environmental declaration on the packaging!
•
If the dishes are only lightly soiled, you can select a
program with a low temperature.
•
Better drying results are achieved if you use the Auto
open option, which automatically opens the dishwasher
door at the end of the program. (If the dishwasher is
built-in, the surrounding furnishings must be resistant
to any condensation.)
Fragile dishes
Some cookware is not dishwasher safe. This can be for
several reasons. Some materials cannot withstand high
temperatures, others can be damaged by dishwasher deter-
gent.
Use caution with, for example, handmade items, fragile
decoration, crystal/glassware, silver, copper, tin, aluminum,
wood, and plastic. Look for the "Dishwasher safe" marking.

The dishwasher is equipped with a top cutlery tray, an upper
basket, and a lower basket.
Top cutlery tray
The top cutlery tray accommodates cutlery, ladles, whisks,
and other utensils.
