The water softener is des igned to rem ove minerals and salts from the water, which would have
a detrim ental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is.
The softener sho uld be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Author ity
can advise you on the hardne ss o f the water in your area.
Adjusting Salt Consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjustment in the amount of sa lt co nsumed bas ed on the ha rdness of
the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level o f salt consumption.
WATER SOFTENER
The hardness of the water 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 special softener that uses a salt container specifically des igned to eliminate
lime and minera ls from the water.
Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.
If your model does not have any water softener, you may skip this section.

Rinse ai d is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, a
spot and streak free drying.
The rinse aid is released durin g the final r ins e to pre vent water from forming droplets on your dishes, which can
leave spots and streaks. It also impr oves drying by allow ing water to roll off the dishes. Your dishwasher is
designed to us e liquid rins e aids . The rin se aid dispenser is located inside, on the door and next to the d etergent
dispenser.
To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the d ispens er until the level indicator turns com pletely
black. The volume of the rinse aid container is about 110ml .
To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.
Carefully pour in the ri nse-aid into it s dispenser, wh ilst avoid ing it to overflow.
Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.
Adjusting Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has six or fou r settings. Always st art with the dispenser
set on "4". If spot s and p oor 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
high er lever until your dishes are sp ot-free. The recommended setting is "4".
(Factory value is "4".)

Amount of Detergent to Use
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive!
Take care to keep it out of reach of children.
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
Dete rgent tablets of different brands disso lve at different speeds. For this reason some
detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power dur ing short
programs. There fore please use l ong programs when using deterg ent tablets, to
ensure the complete removal of detergent residua ls.
The dispenser must be re filled before the star t of each wash cycle following the instructions
provided in the wash cycle table . Your dis hwa sher uses less detergent 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. Al ways add the
detergent just before starting the dish washer, otherwise it coul d get damp and will not
dissolve properly.

Normally new pulver ised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener fu nction of

the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents witho ut phosphate are used in the case of hard water
often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach
better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Stron g and coloured spots will not
be removed completely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature.
