CHAPTER 4. BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

PREPARING YOUR DISHWASHER FOR FIRST USE

• Check whether the electricity and supply water specifications match the values indicated in the
installation instructions for the machine.
• Remove all packaging materials inside the machine.
• Set the water softener level.
• Add 1 kg of salt to the salt chamber and pour water over it so that it almost overflows.
• Fill the rinse aid compartment.

WATER DESCALING WEIGHT

To ensure good washing results, the dishwasher needs soft water, it means with less calcium. Otherwise,
white scale deposits will appear on the dishes and inside the appliance. This will have a negative effect on the
washing, drying and polishing parameters in the device. When water flows through the softener system, the
ions that cause it harder are removed, and the water reaches the level of softness required to achieve optimal
washing results. Depending on the hardness level of the supplied water, the ions causing the water to harden
quickly accumulate in the softener system. Therefore, the softener system should be refreshed so that it always
works with the same efficiency also during the next wash. For this purpose, dishwasher salt is used.

FILL THE SALT (IF AVAILABLE)

To fill with softener salt, open the salt compartment cap by
turning it counter clockwise. (1) (2)
At first use, fill the compartment with 1 kg salt and water (3)
until it is almost overflowing.
If available, using the funnel (4) provided will make filling
easier.
Replace the cap and close it.
After every 20th-30th wash, add salt into your machine until it fills up (approx. 1 kg).
Fill the salt compartment with water the first time you fill the salt compartment only.
Use softener salt specifically produced for use in dishwashers.
When you start your dishwasher, the salt compartment is filled with water, therefore put the softener salt in
prior to starting your machine.
If the softener salt has overflowed and you do not start the machine immediately, run.
