3. Operating instructions
Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as
follows:
•
Adjust the water softening system;
•
Add the regenerating salt;
•
Add the rinse aid and detergent.
3.1 Using the water softening system
The amount of scale contained in the
water (water hardness index) can cause
whitish staining on the dry dishes, which
tend to become dull over time. The
dishwasher is equipped with an automatic
softening system which uses a special
regenerating salt to reduce the hardness
of the water.
The dishwasher is factory set for water
hardness level
3
(average hardness
41-60°dF
–
24-31°dH
).
When using water of medium hardness, the regenerating salt container
should be refilled after approximately
20 washing cycles
. The salt
container can hold approximately
1.7 Kg
of salt in grains.
The container is situated at the bottom of the dishwasher.
After removing the lower basket, unscrew the salt container cap by turning
it anticlockwise and pour in the salt using the funnel supplied with the
dishwasher. Before replacing the cap, remove any salt residues from
around the opening.
• When using the dishwasher for the first time, in addition to the salt it
is also necessary to add one litre of water to the container.
• Each time the salt container is refilled, make sure that the cap is
securely closed. The mixture of water and detergent must never
penetrate the salt container, as this would compromise the operation
of the regeneration system. In the event of this occurring, the
warranty will be invalidated.
•
Only use regenerating salt specially formulated for domestic
dishwashers. If using salt tablets, do not fill the container
completely.
