END OF THE PROGRAMME
• Press the on/off button to deactivate the appliance.
• Close the water tap.
If you do not press the on/off button, after few minutes from the end of the programme all the
indicators go off. This helps to decrease the energy consumption.
HINTS AND TIPS
GENERAL
The following hints will ensure optimal cleaning and
drying results in daily use and also help to protect
the environment.
• Remove larger residues of food from the dishes
into the waste bin.
• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. When needed,
use the prewash programme (if available) or
select a programme with a prewash phase.
• Always use the whole space of the baskets.
• When loading the appliance, make sure that the
dishes can be completely reached and washed
by the water released from the spray arm
nozzles. Make sure that items do not touch or
cover each other.
• You can use dishwasher detergent, rinse aid
and salt separately or you can use the multi-
tablets (e.g. ''3in1'', ''4in1'', ''All in 1''). Follow the
instructions written on the packaging.
• Select the programme according to the type of
load and degree of soil. With the ECO
programme you have the most efficient use of
water and energy consumption for crockery and
cutlery with normal soil.
THE WATER SOFTENER
The water softener removes minerals from the
water supply, which would have a detrimental effect
on the washing results and on the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals, the harder
your water is. Water hardness is measured in
equivalent scales.
The water softener should be adjusted according to
the hardness of the water in your area. Your local
water authority can advise you on the hardness of
the water in your area. It is important to set the right
level of the water softener to assure good washing
results.
USING SALT, RINSE AID AND DETERGENT
• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent for
dishwasher. Other products can cause damage
to the appliance.
• Multi-tablets are usually suitable in areas with a
water hardness up to 21 °dH. In areas
exceeding this limit, rinse aid and salt must be
used in addition to the multi-tablets. However, in
areas with hard and very hard water we
recommend to use solo-detergent (powder, gel,
tablets without additional functions), rinse aid
and salt separately for optimal cleaning and
drying results.
• If you use multi-tablets you can select the
Multitab option (if available). This option
increases the cleaning and drying results with
the use of multi-tablets.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short
programmes. To prevent detergent residues on
the tableware, we recommend that you use the
tablets with long programmes.
• Do not use more than the correct quantity of
detergent. Refer to the instructions on the
detergent packaging.
