Rinse aid and refined salt
EN
If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add
rinse aid; however, we recommend that you add salt,
especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or
very hard. Follow the instructions given on the packaging.
*
Measuring out the rinse aid
Rinse aid makes it easier for the crockery to dry, as water
runs off surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave
streaks or marks.
The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:
• When the LOW RINSE AID
panel is illuminated;
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.
If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you
may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a screwdriver
to turn the dosage adjuster (F) to one of the 6 pre-set
positions (the default position is set to 4):
• If there are streaks on the crockery, set the adjustment
device to a lower number (1-3).
• If drops of water remain on the crockery or if there are
limescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set the
adjuster to a higher number (4-6).
Every dishwasher is equipped with a water softener which, by
using refined salt designed especially for this type of
appliance, supplies water without limescale which is then used
to wash the crockery.
This dishwasher offers a setting which helps to reduce
pollution and optimises washing performance in accordance
with the water hardness level in your area. This information can
be obtained from the organisation which supplies your
household with water.

ON/OFF button.

- Press the P button repeatedly until the desired hardness

- To exit the function, wait approximately 30 seconds or press
another option button, or switch off the machine using the ON/
OFF button.
Even if using multi-functional tablets, the salt dispenser should
still be filled.

Measuring out the refined salt
In order to achieve the best possible results using a wash
cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refined
salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding the
formation of deposits on crockery.
The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the
dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled:
*
• When the green float
cannot be seen by simply looking at
the cap of the salt dispenser.
*
• When the LOW SALT
indicator light on the control panel is
illuminated;
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew
the container cap (anticlockwise).
2. The first time you do this: fill the water
tank right up to its edge.
3. Position the funnel
the salt container right up to its edge (this
should hold approximately 1 kg); it is not unusual for a little
water to leak out.
*
4. Remove the funnel
and wipe any salt residue away from
the opening; rinse the cap under running water and then
screw it on, the head facing downwards so as to let the water
flow out of the four cracks which are arranged in a star shape
on the lower part of the cap. (Salt cap with green float
It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you
add salt to the container.
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent
can get into the container during the wash cycle (this could
damage the water softener beyond repair).
When necessary, measure out the salt before a wash
cycle so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the
salt dispenser is removed.
