FIRST TIME USE
FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes and on
the machine's functional components.
• It is mandatory that the salt reservoir never be empty.
• It is important to set the water hardness.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher and must be
filled when the SALT REFILL indicator light
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 1 kg); it is not unu-
sual 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).
Whenever you need to add salt, it is mandatory to complete the proce-
dure before the beginning of the washing cycle to avoid corrosion.

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.
If all-in-one detergents are used, we recommend using the TABLET button,
because it adjusts the program so that the best washing and drying results
are always achieved.
Usage of detergent not designed for dishwashers may cause malfunc-
tion or damage to the appliance.
WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, consequently pre-
venting scale buildup on heater, contributing also to better cleaning effi-
ciency. This system regenerates itself with salt, therefore it is required
to refill salt container when empty.
Frequency of regeneration depends on water hardness level setting - regen-
eration takes place once per 6 Eco cycles with water hardness level set to 3.
Regeneration process starts in final rinse and finishes in drying phase, be-
fore cycle ends.
• Single regeneration consumes: ~3.5L of water;
• Takes up to 5 additional minutes for the cycle;
• Consumes below 0.005kWh of energy.
