[. . . ] The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water. Adjusting Salt Consumption The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption so that it remains at a minimum. To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows: Loading the Salt into the Softener Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers. The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows: - Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container; - If you are filling the container for the first time, fill it with water; - Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2 kg of salt.

Setting and Starting a wash Cycle Choose the desired cycle by pressing the cycle selection button "P". Each time it is pressed, one of the cycle indicator lights "M" will come on in succession. Choose the wash cycle you feel is most appropriate for the type of dishes that need washing (consult the wash cycle table contained in this manual, especially when first using the appliance). Close the door and after a few seconds, a short acoustic signal will sound indicating that the wash cycle has begun and cannot be modified.

Otherwise, the detergent may have already been used, and the appliance may have already drained the wash water. If this is the case, the detergent dispenser must be refilled (see the paragraph entitled, "Loading the Detergent"). NOTE: a) During the delay period, none of the settings can be modified. If necessary, they can be cancelled by pressing cycle selector "P" for about 5 seconds. b) If the power to the appliance goes off or the door is opened during the delay period, the clock will stop the countdown. It will start again when the power has come back on, or when the door has been closed. To change the cycle currently underway, open the door, press the "P" programming button and hold it in for about 5 seconds. Once the cycle has been cancelled, the dishwasher will emit a short acoustic sound and the relative indicator light will turn off.

Use the special plastic support that comes with the appliance (see fig. 3). The free end of the hose must be at a height between 40 and 100 cm and must not be immersed in water. Hot Water Connection The water supply to the appliance can also be connected to the house's hot water line (centralised system, heating system), as long as it does not exceed a temperature of 60 . fig. 3 Attention: The special plastic hose support must be solidly fastened to the wall to prevent the drain hose from moving and allowing water to spill outside the drain. In this case, the wash cycle time will be shortened by about 15 minutes and the wash efficiency slightly reduced. [. . . ]
