Any electrical and plumbing work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified and competent person. Care must be taken to ensure that the appliance does not stand on the electrical supply cable. The sides of the dishwasher must never be drilled to prevent damage to hydraulic components. Under no circumstances should you attempt to repair the machine yourself. [. . . ] Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area. The water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using the water hardness dial and electronically, using the programme selector dial and the start/cancel button. a) Setting manually 1.

All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilt, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion. Rinse aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for between16 and 40 dishwashing cycles, depending upon the dosage setting. Filling with rinse aid 1. The maximum level for filling is indicated by "max". To fill: 1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time). Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is full. For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it). The lower basket The lower basket is designed to take saucepans, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc. Serving dishes and large lids should be arranged around the edge of the basket, ensuring that the spray arms can turn freely. 27 The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates of up to 26 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses. Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces. Light items (plastic bowls etc. ) must be loaded in the upper basket and arranged so they do not move. Use of detergent Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. Using no more than the correct amount of detergent contributes to reducing pollution. Please observe the manufacturer's dosing and storage recommendations as stated on the detergent packaging. Fill with detergent 1. The marking indicates the dosing levels: 20 = approximately 20 g of detergent 30 = approximately 30 g of detergent In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket: load them starting from the rear positions of the basket; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door. Before closing the door, ensure that the spray arms can rotate freely. After loading your machine always close the door, as an open door can be a hazard. 3. All programmes with prewash need an additional detergent dose (5/10 g) that must be placed in the prewash detergent chamber (3). Close the lid and press until it locks in place. 28 Different kinds of detergent Detergent tablets Detergent tablets from different manufactures dissolve at different rates. For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power during short washing programmes.
