Set the water softener The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees (dH°), French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water).
6. To memorize the operation, switch off the dishwasher by returning the programme knob to the Off position. Use of dishwasher salt Warning! 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.
According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage). The dose is factory set in position 4. Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades. 2. Add the rinse aid in the container. The maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".
• When loading the dishes and cutlery, please note: – Dishes and cutlery must not impede the rotation of the spray arms. – Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans, etc. with the opening downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base. – Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other. – To avoid damage to glasses, they must not touch. – Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.
The rows of prongs in the lower basket can lie flat to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls. The cutlery basket The upper basket The upper basket is designed for saucers, salad bowls, cups, glasses, pots and lids. Arrange items on and underneath the cup racks so that water can reach all surfaces. Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard.
