Rinse aid and refined salt
Only use products which have been specifically designed
for dishwashers.
Do not use table/industrial salt or washing-up liquid.
Follow the instructions given on the packaging.
If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add
any rinse aid. However, we recommend that you add salt,
especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or
very hard.
(Follow the instructions given on the packaging).
If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and
LOW RINSE AID indicator lights will stay lit.

Measuring out the refined salt
In order to obtain the best possible results from a wash cycle,
make sure that the salt dispenser is never empty.

the formation of deposits on crockery.
The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher
(see Description)
and should be filled:
• Whenthegreenfloat* cannot be seen by simply looking at
the cap of the salt dispenser;
• WhentheLOWRINSEAIDindicatorlightonthecontrolpanel
is illuminated *;
1.Removethelowerrackandunscrewthecap(anticlockwise).
2.Thefirsttimeyoudothis:fillthewatertankrightuptoitsedge.
3. Position the funnel*
(see figure)
and fill the
salt dispenser up to the edge (approximately
1kg).Itisnormalforalittlewatertoleakout.
4.Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt
residues away from the opening; rinse the cap
under running water and then screw it on, the
head facing downwards so as to let the water
flow out of the four slots (star-shaped arrangement) in the lower
part of the cap (cap with green float*).
It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add
salt to the dispenser.
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly so that no detergent can
get into the container during the wash cycle (this could damage
the water softener beyond repair).

so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the salt
dispenser is removed.
