Warnng and safety
nformaton
Electrcal Safety
The dshwasher should only be
operated on the voltage specfed.
For electrcal safety, only earthed
plugs and sockets should be used.
Always use the fused plug provded
wth the applance. The user s
responsble for meetng these basc
safety requrements. The lfe of your
machne and your safety depend on
you usng an electrcal nstallaton
complant to standards.
Do not use an extenson cable.
When dsconnectng your machne
from the mans supply, always pull
from the plug. Never pull the cord
tself.
Chldren’s Safety
Never allow your chldren to play wth
your dshwasher.
Dshwasher detergents contan
rrtants and abrasves. These
ngredents mght have caustc
eects n the eyes, mouth and throat.
They can be extremely dangerous f
swallowed. Avod contact wth skn
and eyes. Check that the detergent
receptacle s empty after completon
of the wash cycle.
Keep detergents out of chldren’s
reach and do not put detergent n the
machne untl rght before you start
the washng programme.
The water n your dshwasher s not
sutable for drnkng, for ths reason
do not allow your chldren near your

Water hardness & regeneraton settngs
The dshwasher requres lme free water. Hard water leaves watermarks on
your dshes. Your dshwasher has a specal water softenng system to remove
the hardness of the tap water. Settng ths system correctly wll ncrease the
washng eectveness.
To fnd out the water hardness level of water n your area, contact your local
Water Board or Determne water hardness level by the help of test strp
provded.
If you move to a derent locaton, the level of water hardness wll
possbly be derent. It s essental to reset the water hardness n
order to obtan optmum washng ecency.
Test Strip

Addng Dshwasher Salt
Only use specal pelletzed
dshwasher salt n your machne to
soften the hard water. Never use
other types of salts ncludng table
salt, anmal feedng salt, sea salt,
culnary salt. These types of salt do
not dssolve n water easly and wll
damage your applance beyond repar.
When you run the dshwasher, the
Water softener wll be full of water.
Therefore, addng softenng salt
should always be done mmedately
before you start the dshwasher.
Cauton: Only fll wth salt just before
startng one of the complete washng
programmes to prevent any grans of
salt causng corroson. Ensure 1lt of
water has been added. You can put
approxmately 2 kg softenng salt n
the Water softener.
To fll the contaner wth softenng
salt, remove the lower rack frst
and unscrew the cap of the water
softener turnng ant clockwse.
Usng the funnel provded wll make
fllng easer.
After you fll the contaner, screw
cap tghtly back nto place turnng
clockwse untl you hear a clck sound.
In case the lght of the salt ndcator s
stll on for a long tme after fllng wth
salt, mx the salty water nsde the
salt box usng a spoon.

Detergent use
Any brand of powder, gel and tablet
detergents that have been desgned
for household dshwashers, may be
used.
Keep detergents n a cool and dry
place and out of the reach of chldren.
Detergent must be added to the
contaner before each use.
Detergent overdose may cause
scratches on your dshes and there
may be traces of detergent left n
your machne.
Three types of detergent are
avalable
• Phosphate and contanng
chlorne.
• Phosphate contanng no chlorne
• Nether contanng phosphate nor
chlorne
New compact powders are generally
phosphate-free. As phosphates
have water softenng propertes,
we suggest you add salt to the salt
contaner even f the hardness of your

Detergent resdues
Regular use of low temperature
washes and/or short duraton
programmes can lead to undssolved
detergent resdue buld up. We
recommend to carry out a servce
wash at the hghest temperature
possble every 3 - 4 months wth the
dshwasher empty and wthout usng
detergent. It s not recommended to
carry t out wth auto programme.
Rnse ad
Use only rnse ad ntended for
household dshwashers.
The rnse ad s specally formulated
to be used n the dshwashers for
the preventon of watermarks and
