[. . . ] According to the degree of hardness of your water, regulate the softener unit in the following way: 1. Unscrew and remove the cap from the salt dispenser located in the bottom of the tub (fig. turn the selector screw to the required position with a screwdriver or a knife. Loading the salt On the bottom of the machine there is a container for the salt for regenerating the softener. It is important to use only a salt that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Other types of salt contain small quantities of insoluble particles which over a long period of time may affect and deteriorate the softener performance. To add salt, unscrew the cap of the container on the bottom and then refill the container. During this operation a little water will overflow; but keep adding salt until the container is full. When the container is full, clean the thread of salt residue and retighten the tap. use of the appliance, it should be refilled from time to time according to the regulation of the water softener unit. IMPORTANT (Only for first start up) When the appliance is used for the first time, after completely filling the salt container, it is necessary to add water until the container overflows. Regulating the water softener The table below lists different degrees of water hardness with the corresponding setting for the softener unit. 1) A = soup plates B = dinner plates C = dessert plates D = saucers E = cups F = glasses Using the lower basket Saucepans, oven dishes, tureens, salad bowls, lids, serving dishes, dinner plates, soup plates and ladles can be loaded on the lower basket.

We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much detergent will not produce better results and is also a waste.

The rinse aid container can be found to the left of the detergent container (fig. To open the lid, push the reference mark and, in the same time, pull the tab of opening. It is always advisable to use rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Check the rinse aid level through the indicator eye (C) which is located on the dispenser.

Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6 The regulator (D) is placed under the lid and can be turned using a coin. The limestone content of the water considerably affects the formation of limescale and the drying performance. It is therefore important to regulate the quantity of rinse aid to achieve good washing results. If, after the wash, streaks occur on the dishes, decrease the amount by one position. If whitish spots occur, increase the amount by one position. 19 A If you are planning to use combined detergents i. e. those with built in salt and/or rinse agent, we would advise the following: read carefully and follow the manufacturer's instructions given on the packaging; some combined detergents, particularly those with built in rinse agent, provide best results when used with specific programmes; 18 B D CLEANING THE FILTERS The filter system (fig. A "4") consists of: a central container that traps the larger particles; a flat gauze that continuously filters the wash water; a micro filter, located beneath the gauze, that traps the tiniest particles ensuring a perfect rinse. [. . . ] IMPORTANT The dishwasher has two very practical functions: ( the "recommended" program ) for quick and sure selection; Changing a running program Option button Proceed as follows to change or cancel a running program: Hold down the current program button (with the LED on) for at least 3 seconds. The program LEDs (except for the "RAPID" program LED) will blink. The running program will be cancelled and the LED for the "recommended" program or the LED for the program that was used at least 3 times consecutively will start to blink. "HALF LOAD" button By using this option, it is possible to wash a smaller quantity of crockery: you should load only the upper basket for dishes and place cutlery in the tray in the bottom basket.
