Filling with salt Rinse aid Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. 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.
Filling with rinse aid (Rinse aid dispenser type B) 1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise. 2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The maximum level for filling is indicated by "max". BR01 BR13 Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill. Top up with rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear.

In case that plates are loaded in the upper basket: The cutlery basket Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard.

Take care when loading or unloading sharp items such as knives. load them starting from the rear positions of the basket; tilting them slightly forwards and avoiding the front positions near the door.
Use of detergent Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. Using no more then the correct amount of detergent contributes to reducing pollution. Prior to the start of a wash programme (not for the "Rinse and Hold" programme, that does not require the use of detergent). The detergent is released during the washing phase.

Different kinds of detergent Detergent tablets Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals. Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results.
