4. Operating instructions
Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as
follows:
x Adjust the water softening system;
x Add the regenerating salt;
x Add the rinse aid and detergent.
4.1 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 37-59°dF22-33°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 1.5 Kg of salt in grains.
The salt reservoir is in the bottom of the dishwasher. After removing the
basket, undo the cap of the reservoir by turning it anticlockwise and pour
the salt in using the funnel supplied with the dishwasher. Remove any
salt residues around the opening before screwing the cap back on.
x 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.
x 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.
x Only use regenerating salt specially formulated for domestic
dishwashers. If using salt tablets, do not fill the container
completely.
