General Warnings And Recommendations; Before Using The Dishwasher For The First Time; Before Loading The Dishes Into The Baskets - Smeg DWA147 Instruction Manual

User instructions
Flexi Tabs
When using detergents which incorporate salt and rinse aid, use the
"Flexi Tabs" option if featured on the dishwasher. If the option is not
provided, we recommend the use of conventional products (separate
detergent, salt and rinse aid), because with conventional washing cycles,
combined products might create problems such as a white deposit, poor
drying results and residues left on dishes.
The introduction of detergent into the rinse aid dispenser, even in
liquid form, will damage the dishwasher.

4.3 General warnings and recommendations

Before using the dishwasher for the first time, it is advisable to read the
following recommendations concerning dish types to be washed and
their loading.
There are generally no constraints on the washing of domestic dishes,
but in certain cases it is necessary to take their characteristics into
account.
Before loading the dishes into the baskets it is necessary to:
•
remove coarse food remains: e.g. bones, fish-bones, etc. which
may clog the filter or damage the wash pump.
•
soak any pots or pans with burnt-on food remains on the bottom to
facilitate removal, then load them into the LOWER BASKET.
There is no need to pre-wash the dishes under running water before
loading them into the baskets since this only wastes water.
Correct loading of the dishes helps ensure optimal washing
results.
