After this you should set the water softener level.
Filling with dishwasher salt IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of salt is used in the appliance (in particular table salt), it will damage the water softener. o Ideally you should fill the water softener with salt, just before you are about to run a wash program. This will help to clear any salt that may have overflowed from the water softener during the salt filling process.
o IMPORTANT: You do not need to pour 1 litre of water into the container when you subsequently fill the water softener with salt. Setting the water softener level It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will release during a wash cycle. The water softener should be set to a level that is appropriate for the hardness of your water (please refer to the table below).
These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on items after the wash program has completed. o Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid. o The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the drop down door, next to the detergent dispenser. o To access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole. Then slowly pour in liquid rinse aid, the rinse aid dispenser will hold approximately 140 ml of rinse aid.
o If you get cloudiness or streaking on your dishes, the rinse aid level is set too high and it is causing foaming during the wash cycle. Turn the arrow clockwise and lower the setting to the next number. Filling with dishwasher detergent The detergent dispenser must be refilled at the start of each wash cycle (apart from the Rinse wash program). o Open the lid that closes over the detergent dispenser and place the detergent inside of the dispenser.
Loading the upper basket The upper basket is most suited to washing delicate and light dishware, such as glasses, coffee & tea cups, saucers, plates, bowls and shallow pans (that are not heavily soiled). 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Cups Small serving bowl Large serving bowl Glasses Saucers Dish Dessert dishes o You should position the dishes and cookware in such a way that they are not moved by the spray of water during the wash cycle.
Adjusting the upper basket Your dishwasher has an adjustable upper basket which you can alter to the most suitable position for the items you are going to wash in the upper basket. The height of the upper basket can be adjusted by pulling the handle on either side of the basket upwards until it clips into place. Position 1 (upper position) o For accommodating items such as glass tumblers and wine glasses.
IMPORTANT: Care should be taken to make sure that the spray arms can move freely when items have been loaded into the baskets. IMPORTANT: Care should be taken when placing long stemmed glassware, such as champagne glasses in the upper basket. If they are not positioned correctly, then there is a risk that they may topple over when the upper basket is pushed in our pulled out.
The cutlery basket Cutlery should be placed inside of the cutlery basket. The cutlery basket should then be placed in the appropriate position in the lower basket. o For the best washing performance, cutlery should be placed through the slots in the top of the cutlery basket. o For ease of loading, it is possible to split apart the outer section of the cutlery basket.
IMPORTANT: Do not allow items of cutlery to fall through the bottom of the cutlery basket, as this may cause damage to the spray arm and/or the cutlery. If the bottom of the basket begins to deteriorate and allows items to fall through, you should replace the cutlery basket. Loading dishes and cutlery Household cloths, sponges or any other object that may absorb water SHOULD NOT be washed in a dishwasher.
The following items are NOT suitable for washing inside a dishwasher:o Cutlery with a handle of mother-of-pearl, wood, horn or china. o Plastic items that are not resistant to heat. o Cutlery that consists of glued parts that are not resistant to heat. o Cutlery items or crockery that are bonded. o Copper or pewter items. o Lead crystal glass. o Wooden platters o Synthetic fibre items.
Program table * Normal is the testing program for EN 50242.

o Put a 3 in 1 tablet inside the 3 in 1 tablet container. Load the appliance as normal and select the 3 in 1 wash program. If your wash results are poor, then we would recommend that you use a dishwasher detergent that doesn’t have rinse aid and salt included in the tablet. The water softener should then be adjusted to an appropriate level for the hardness of the water in your area.
o You can delay the start of the wash cycle by a maximum of 24 hours. Each time you press a button, the delay start time will adjust by one hour. o Close the door firmly, so that you hear the door lock click shut. o Once the period of time that you set has passed, the dishwasher will start the wash program that you selected.
