FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes and on
the machine's functional components.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (under the
lower rack on the left side).
• It is mandatory that the salt reservoir never be empty.
• It is important to set the water hardness.
• Salt must be filled when the SALT REFILL indicator light
panel is lit.
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the reservoir cap
(anticlockwise).
2. Position the funnel (see figure) and fill the salt reservoir
right up to its edge (approximately 0,5 kg); it is not un-
usual for a little water to leak out.
3. Only the first time you do this: fill the salt reservoir
with water.
4. Remove the funnel and wipe any salt residue away from the opening.
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly so that no detergent can get into
the container during the wash program (this could damage the water
softener beyond repair).
Run a program every time as soon as you completed refilling the salt
reservoir to avoid corrosion.
SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS
To allow the water softener to work in a perfect way, it is essential that the water
hardness setting is based on the actual water hardness in your house. This infor-
mation can be obtained from your local water supplier. The factory setting is "3".

Only use salt that has been specifically designed for dishwashers.
After the salt has been poured into the machine, the SALT REFILL indicator
light switches off.
If the salt container is not filled, the water softener and the heating
element may be damaged as a result of limescale accumulation.
Use of salt is recommended with any type of dishwasher detergent.
WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, consequently preventing
scale buildup on the heater, contributing also to better cleaning efficiency.
This system regenerates itself with salt, therefore it is required to refill
the salt container when empty. The frequency of regeneration depends
on the water hardness level setting - regeneration takes place once per 4-6
Eco cycles with the water hardness level set to 3. The regeneration process
occurs at the beginning of the cycle with additional fresh water.
• Single regeneration consumes ~3L of water;
• Takes up to 5 additional minutes for the cycle;
• Consumes below 0.005kWh of energy.

3. Press the lid down until you hear a click to close it.
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.
ADJUSTING THE DOSAGE OF RINSE AID
If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you can adjust
the quantity of rinse aid used.
To change, follow instructions in the section "SETTING MENU".
If the rinse aid level is set to ZERO, no rinse aid will be supplied. The LOW
RINSE AID indicator light will not be lit if you run out of rinse aid.
A maximum of 6 levels can be set according to the dishwasher model.
• If you see bluish streaks on the dishes, set a low number (0-3).
• If there are drops of water or limescale marks on the dishes, set
a mid-range number (4-5).
FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER
To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device C. Introduce
the detergent into the dry dispenser D only. Place the amount of
detergent for pre-washing directly inside the tub.
1. When measuring out the detergent refer to the
mentioned earlier information to add the proper
quantity. Inside the dispenser D, there are indica-
tions to help the detergent dosing.

2. Remove detergent residues from the edges of the
C dispenser and close the cover until it clicks.
