Tips for energy saving
Following information will help you use the
product in an ecological and energy-efficient
manner.
Wipe away any coarse food remnants on
the dishes before putting them in the
product. Operate the product after filling it
completely. When selecting a programme,
consider the table of “Programme data and
average consumption values”.
Do not put more detergent than suggested
on the detergent package.
Water softening system
C
Your dishwasher requires soft
water. If the hardness of the
water is above 6°dH, the water
must be softened and descaled.
Otherwise, ions that create
the hardness will accumulate
on the surfaces of the dishes
and may adversely affect the
washing, shining and drying
performances of the product.
The product is equipped with a water
softening system which reduces the
hardness of incoming water. This system
softens the supply water that enters into the
product to a level that will allow washing the
dishes with the required quality.
Adjusting the water
softening system
Washing performance will increase when
water softening system is adjusted properly.
Adjust the new water hardness level
according to the Water hardness level
instruction in this booklet.
Adding salt
Water softening system needs to be
regenerated in order that the product
operates with the same performance
continuously. Dishwasher salt is used for
this purpose.
C
Use only special softening salts
produced particularly for the
dishwashers in your machine.
C
We recommend using granular
or powder softening salts. Do
not use salts that are insoluble
in water such as table salt or
common salt. Performance of
water softening system may
get worse in time.
C
Salt reservoir will fill with water
when you start the product.
Therefore, add the softening
salt before starting the
machine.
1. First take the lower basket out to add
softening salt.
