6.1 BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE
Before turning on the appliance, make sure that the plug attached to the electric cable is
connected to the electric outlet, the water supply tube is connected to the tap, the tap is turned
on, and the drainage tube has been connected according to the instructions.
Use only special dishwasher salt. Other types of salt
(e.g. regular household salt) often contain sub-
stances that do not dissolve completely in water and
can therefore obstruct the water softener, thus mak-
ing it unusable.
Opening of the door
Pull the handle forward. The door should open without effort. If you pull the handle while the dishwasher
is running, a safety mechanism will shut off the appliance automatically.

Regeneration levels
Adding special dishwasher salt
• Open the door and take out the lower basket.
• Remove the lid of the salt container by turning it anticlock-
wise.
Only during the first time you carry out this operation:
fill about 1/2 litre of water into the salt container.
• Use funnel L to fill the special dishwasher salt into the
container (use about 1.0-1.5 kg of salt).
• Remove possible salt residues from the opening of the
container.
• Put the lid of the container back in its place by turning it
clockwise.
• If you don’t use the dishwasher immediately after filling
the salt container, run the programme
pre-wash to rinse
away the water and salt particles that spilled over from the
container.
* The water softening system is equipped with an electric
instrument that indicates the salt content level.
A control light will be illuminated on the front panel (fig. 18,
) of your dishwasher to indicate when it is necessary
to add more dishwasher salt.
Regulation of the water softener system
For the washing process it is better to use soft water (with a
low calcium content), to avoid calcium deposits on the dishes
and on the inside of the dishwasher.
To reach the optimum regeneration setting, keep the button
DELAY 9 (fig. 6) pressed, when turning on the appliance.
The current setting will be displayed (e.g., d5). To modify the
setting (within 5 seconds),press the same button again until
the desired level is reached (see table).
Wait for 6 seconds without modifying the setting. A buzzer
will indicate that the new setting is accepted. On the display,
the request select programme will appear.
Note - See leaflet contained within the instruction pack
for details of water hardness testing.)
