results. Using too much rinse aid results in bluish
layers on the items.
• Make sure that the water softener level is correct. If
the level is too high, the increased quantity of salt in
the water might result in rust on cutlery.
What to do if you want to stop using multi-tablets
Before you start to use separately detergent, salt and
rinse aid, complete the following steps:
1. Set the highest level of the water softener.
2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid containers are
full.
3. Start the shortest programme with a rinsing phase.
Do not add detergent and do put dishes in the
baskets.
4. When the programme is complete, adjust the water
softener according to the water hardness in your
area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse aid.
Loading the baskets
• Always use the whole space of the baskets.
• Use the appliance to wash dishwasher-safe items
only.
• Do not wash in the appliance items made of wood,
horn, aluminium, pewter and copper as they could
crack, warp, get discoloured or pitted.
• Do not wash in the appliance items that can absorb
water (sponges, household cloths).
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and pans) with the
opening facing downwards.
• Make sure that glasses do not touch each other.
• Put light items in the upper basket. Make sure that
the items do not move freely.
• Put cutlery and small items in the cutlery basket.
• Make sure that the spray arms can move freely
before you start a programme.
Before starting a programme
Before you start the selected programme, make sure
that:
• The filters are clean and correctly installed.
• The cap of the salt container is tight.
• The spray arms are not clogged.
• There is enough salt and rinse aid (unless you use
multi-tablets).
• The arrangement of the items in the baskets is
correct.
• The programme is suitable to the type of load and
the degree of soil.
• The correct quantity of detergent is used.
Unloading the baskets
1. Let the tableware cool down before you remove it
from the appliance. Hot items can be easily
damaged.
2. First remove items from the lower basket, then from
the upper basket.
After the programme is completed, water
can still remain on the inside surfaces of
the appliance.
Care and cleaning
Warning! Before maintenance,
deactivate the appliance and disconnect
the mains plug from the main socket.
Dirty filters and clogged spray arms
decrease the washing results. Make a
check regularly and, if necessary, clean
them.
