8. HINTS AND TIPS

8.1 The water softener
Hard water contains a high quantity of
minerals that can cause damage to the
appliance and bad washing results. The
water softener neutralises these miner-
als.
The dishwasher salt keeps the water
softener clean and in good conditions. It
is important to set the right level of the
water softener. This makes sure that the
water softener uses the correct quantity
of dishwasher salt and water.
8.2 Loading the baskets
Refer to the supplied leaflet with
examples of the load of the bas-
kets.
• Only use the appliance to wash items
that are dishwasher-safe.
1. Press the on/off button to deactivate
the appliance.
2. Close the water tap.
If you do not press the on/off
button, the Auto Off device au-
tomatically deactivates the appli-
ance after some minutes. This
helps to decrease the energy
consumption.
• Let the dishes become cold
before you remove them from
the appliance. Hot dishes can
be easily damaged.
• First remove the items from
the lower basket, then from
the upper basket.
• There can be water on the
sides and on the door of the
appliance. Stainless steel be-
comes cool more quickly than
the dishes.
• Do not put in the appliance items
made of wood, horn, aluminium, pew-
ter and copper.
• Do not put in the appliance items that
can absorb water (sponges, household
cloths).
• Remove remaining food from the
items.
• To remove easily remaining burned
food, soak pots and pans in water be-
fore you put them in the appliance.
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and
pans) with the opening down.
• Make sure that cutlery and dishes do
not bond together. Mix spoons with
other cutlery.
• Make sure that glasses do not touch
other glasses.
• Put the small items in the cutlery bas-
ket.
• Put the light items in the upper bas-
ket. Make sure that they do not move.
