Using the Water Softener
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher,
deposits will be formed on the utensils. This appliance is equipped with a water softener which uses a
salt specifically designed to eliminate the minerals from the water.
CAUTION:
Only use salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers.
Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which may damage the water softening
system.
Fill the salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline
solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the
tank may lead to corrosion.
If you plan to use dishwasher tablets for your washing needs, then you do not require to use salt or
rinse agent but please note that the salt indicator light will remain illuminated on the control panel
continuously this is quite normal and will not affect the operation of your dishwasher.
Filling with salt
Unscrew the cap from the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
Before first wash, fill the salt container with 1 litre of water.
Place the supplied funnel so the end fits into the opening of the salt container. Load
about 1kg of salt into the salt container.
Screw the cap back clockwise.
Using the Rinsing Aid and Detergent Dispensers
The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the formation of scale deposits and staining. It
is automatically added to the water during the final rinse cycle.
The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are located on the inner
part of the door: the detergent dispenser is on the left, and the
rinse aid dispenser is on the right.
