Flexi Tabs; Spread Half Load; Program Delay - Smeg DWA214S. Instruction Manual

"Flexi Tabs" (on some models only)
The option is optimised for use of detergents which are complete with
salt and rinse aid, known on the market as, "triple action", etc. With this
option activated, any salt and rinse aid If you wish to use detergents
which already contain salt and rinse aid already in the dishwasher will
not be used.
With short programs, because there is less time for them to dissolve,
tablets may fail to wash effectively and undissolved residues may be left.
Powder detergents are more suitable for these programs.

IMPORTANT: when no longer required, the option must be disabled
(the light goes out).
If the water hardness has been set on a value above H3, and the Flexi
Tabs option is activated, the relative light flashes, warning of a setting
error. Integrated products are not suitable for use with very "hard" water;
this does not prevent the use of the option, but the washing results
might not be of the best.
