Water softenng system

C The dishwasher requires soft

water. If the hardness of the

water is above 6°dH, the water

must be softened and descaled.

Otherwise, ions that create the

hardness will accumulate on the

surfaces of the dishes and may

adversely affect the washing,

shining and drying performances

of the product.

The product s equpped wth a water

softenng system whch reduces the

hardness of ncomng water. Ths

system softens the supply water that

enters nto the product to a level that

wll allow washng the dshes wth the

requred qualty.

Adjustng the water

softenng system

Washng performance wll ncrease

when water softenng system s

adjusted properly.

Use the test strpe suppled wth

the product to determne the supply

water hardness n order to adjust the

system.

Addng salt

Water softenng system needs to be

regenerated n order for the product

operates wth the same performance

contnuously. Dshwasher salt s used

for ths purpose.

C Use in your product only

the special softening salts

produced particularly for use in

dishwashers.

C We recommend using granular or

powder softening salts. Do not

use salts containing insoluble

substances such as table salt

or common salt in the machine.

Performance of water softening

system may deteriorate in time.

C Salt reservor wll fll wth water

when you start the product.

Therefore, add the softenng salt

before startng the machne.

1. Frst take the lower basket out to

add softenng salt.

2. Turn the salt reservor ld n

counter clockwse to open t (A, B).

C Before ntal use, fll the water

softenng system wth 1 ltre of

water (C).

3. Fll the salt reservor wth salt by

usng salt funnel (D). To speed up

dssoluton rate of salt n water,

str t wth a spoon.

C You can put about 2 kg of

softenng salt nto the salt

reservor.

4. Replace the ld and tghten t

securely when the reservor s full.

1. Push the latch to rght to open the

detergent dspenser ld (A).

2. Put suggested amount of

powder or tablet detergent n the

dspenser.

C Insde the detergent dspenser,

there are level markngs that

help you use approprate

amount of detergent. When

brmful, detergent dspenser wll

contan 40 cm of detergent.

Fll detergent up to 15 cm or 25

cm level marks n the detergent

dspenser accordng to fullness of

the machne and/or solng degree

of the dshes (1).

C If dshes have been watng for a

long tme and have dred resdues,

fll the 5 cm compartment too (5).

3. Close the detergent dspenser

ld by pressng on t lghtly. A

5. If you wll not start a washng

programme mmedately after

addng the salt, run the machne

empty n the shortest programme

to dssolve and wash away the

scattered salt n the machne.

C Snce dfferent salt brands

n the market have dfferent

partcle szes and snce the water

hardness may vary, dssoluton

of the salt n water may take a

couple of hours. Therefore, Salt

Indcator remans on for a whle

after addng salt nto the machne.

Detergent

You can use powder or tablet

detergent n the machne.

C Only use in the machine the

detergents produced particularly

for use with dishwashers. We

recommend you not to use

detergents that contain chlorine

and phosphate as they are

harmful for the environment.

C Contact the detergent producer if

the dishes are wet and/or if you

notice limescale spots particularly

on glasses after the washing

programme is over.

Addng detergent

C Refer to the “Programme Table”

to determne the correct amount

of detergent for the selected

programme.

B Do not put solvents nto the

detergent dspenser. There s the

rsk of exploson!

Put the detergent nto the detergent

dspenser just before operatng the

machne as llustrated below.

C Informaton about sutable

places (detergent dspenser,

basket etc.) n the dshwasher

to place the tablet can be found

amongst the usage nstructons

on the packages of the tablet

detergents.

C Observe the nstructons of the

detergent manufacturer on

the package when usng tablet

detergents.

When you swtch to powder

detergent from tablet detergent:

1. Make sure that salt and rnse ad

reservors are full.

2. Set the water hardness to the

hghest level and perform an

empty run.

3. After the empty washng cycle,

revew the user manual and

readjust the water hardness level

so as to sut the water supply.

4. Make the approprate rnse ad

settngs.

C Dependng on the model, salt

ndcator and/or rnse ad ndcator

must be enabled agan f they

were dsabled before.

“clck” wll be heard when the ld s

closed.

C In programmes wth prewash and

at hgh temperature, n whch you

use tablet detergents, make sure

that the detergent dspenser ld s

closed frmly.

C Use powder detergent n short

programmes wthout prewash

snce the solublty of the tablet

detergent changes dependng on

the temperature and tme.

A Excessve usage of powder

detergents wll cause the

detergent not dssolve completely

and wll also cause scratches on

the glassware.

Tablet detergents

Table detergents exhbt water

softenng and / or rnse ad eect n

addton to detergent eect. Some

types of these detergents also

contan specal-purpose washng

chemcals such as glass and stanless

steel protectors.

C Tablet detergents gve satsfyng

results only under certan usage

condtons. The best washng

performance n dshwashers s

obtaned by usng detergent,

rnse ad and water softenng salt

ndvdually.

4. Turn the rnse ad amount

adjuster manually to a poston

between 1 and 6 (4). If there are

stans on tableware tems after

washng, level must be ncreased

and f there s a blue trace after

wpng them by hand, t must be

decreased. Ths s set to poston 4

as factory default.

Items not sutable for washng n

the dshwasher

• Never wash dshes soled by

cgarette ash, candle remnants,

polsh, dyestu, chemcals, etc. n

your dshwasher.

• Do not wash ron alloy tems

n the dshwasher. It can get

corroded or leave stans on other

tems.

• Do not wash slverware and

cutlery wth wooden or bone

stems, glued peces, or peces

that are not resstant to heat,

as well as copper and tn-plated

contaners n the dshwasher.

C Decoratve prnts of chnaware as

well as alumnum and slver tems

may get dscoloured or tarnshed

after washng n the dshwasher

just as t happens n handwashng

Rnse ad

C The rnse ad used n dshwashers

s a specal combnaton used to

ncrease dryng effcency and

prevent water or lmescale stans

on the washed tems. For ths

reason, care must be pad to have

rnse ad n the rnse ad reservor

and to use rnse ads produced

specally for dshwashers only.

Check Rnse Ad Indcator to

determne whether t s necessary

to add rnse ad or not 3 (depends

on the model). Havng a dark lght

on the ndcator shows that there

s sucent amount of rnse ad n

the dspenser. If the colour of the

ndcator s lght, add rnse ad.

1. Open the ld of the rnse ad

reservor by pressng ts latch (B).

2. Fll the reservor untl “MAX” level.

3. Close the ld of the reservor by

pressng on t lghtly.

C Wpe clean any splled rnse ad

outsde the reservor. Rnse ad

that splled accdentally wll cause

foamng and t wll eventually

decrease washng performance.

as well. Some delcate glass types

and crystals may become dull n

tme. We strongly recommend

you to check f the tableware you

are gong to purchase s sutable

for washng especally n the

dshwasher.

Placng the dshes nto the

dshwasher

You can use your dshwasher n the

optmum way wth respect to energy

consumpton and washng and dryng

performance only f you place the

dshes n an orderly way.

• Wpe away any coarse food

remnants (bones, seeds, etc.) on

the dshes before placng them n

the dshwasher.

• Place thn, narrow peces n the

mddle sectons of baskets f

possble.

• There are two separate baskets

n whch you can place your

dshes n the dshwasher. Place

the heavly soled and bgger

tems n the lower basket and

smaller, delcate and lght tems

n the upper basket.

• Place the hollowed dshes such

as bowls, glasses and pans upsde

down n the dshwasher. Thus,

accumulaton of water n deep

hollows s prevented.

A To prevent possble njures,

always place the sharp and

ponted dshes such as servce

fork, bread knfe, etc. upsde down

so as ther ponted ends wll face

down or they wll le horzontally

on the dsh baskets.

• Unload dshes n the lower basket

frst and then the dshes n the

upper basket.
