  • Page 12: Before Using Your Dishwasher For The First Time

    Before using your dishwasher for the first time When your new dishwasher is installed, you must first make it ready for use. Before using your dishwasher for the first time, proceed as follows: - set the water softener; - fill the special salt container with special salt; - fill the rinse-aid dispenser with rinse-aid.
  • Page 13 If your water is "level 1" it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt. Salt must be used from "level 1" upward. The dishwasher is factory set "level 2" as this suits most users. If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted. You may change the factory level setting by means of the wash programme selector buttons.
  • Page 14: Filling With Dishwasher Salt

    Filling with dishwasher salt Only use salt designed specifically for use in dishwashers. Other types of salt i.e. table/cooking salt contain high percentages of other substances which may damage and reduce the efficiency of the softener. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container. Pour about half a litre of water into the container, or until it is full (this is only necessary before filling with salt for the first time).
  • Page 15: Rinse Aid Dosage

    Caution: Only fill with salt just before starting a complete washing programme (not the RINSE AND HOLD programme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which could cause corrosion. Rinse-aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring through rinsing, spot and streak free drying.
  • Page 16: Setting The Rinse Aid Dosage

    Setting the rinse aid dosage The correct dosage of the rinse-aid should be regulated on the basis of the shine and drying results. For this purpose, set the quantity of liquid by means of the six-position selector (C) located on the inside of the filler opening (minimum quantity is position 1, maximum quantity is position 6).
  • Page 17 The amount of detergent to be used varies depending on how soiled the dishes are and the type of dishes being washed. We recommend the amounts shown in the programme chart. After filling the dispenser with detergent, close the lid. All the programmes with prewash require a small additional amount of detergent to be poured over the lid of the dispenser, as shown on the diagram.
  • Page 18: Bio Programmes And Compact Powders

    BIO programmes and compact powders On the basis of their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be classified into two groups: - conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components: - low-alkaline compact powders with natural enzymes. The enzymes in low-alkaline compact powders have a dirt-dissolving effect and are also biodegradable.
  • Page 19: Loading Your Machine

    Loading your machine Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food from the plates (small bones, toothpicks, fish bones, scraps of food etc.) to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing wash performance. Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes. Before loading, soak very heavily soiled pots and pans.
  • Page 20 UI12 The two rear rows of prongs on the lower basket can be easily lowered to allow you to load pots, pans and bowls. To lower the prongs: Slightly pull them upward and let them drop down; to bring them back to the standing position, just pull them up again.
  • Page 21: Cutlery Basket

    Cutlery basket Place knives, forks and spoons in the cutlery basket with their handles pointing downwards. Arrange cutlery loosely and distribute it in all compartments so that each individual article has good contact with washing water. To unload your dishwasher more easily, you can take the cutlery basket out of the lower basket and unfold it.
  • Page 22: The Upper Basket

    The upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates up to 24 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses; these should be arranged as shown in the pictures. Glasses with long stems can be placed upside-down in the raised cup-racks The cup-rack on the left folds upwards to increase your loading flexibility.
  • Page 23: Adjusting The Height Of The Upper Basket
