The water softener

The water softener removes minerals from

the water supply, which would have a

negative 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.

Regeneration process

For the correct water softener operation,

the resin of the softener device needs to

be regenerated regularly. This process is

automatic and is the part of the normal

dishwasher operation.

When the prescribed quantity of water

(see values in the table) has been used

since the previous regeneration process, a

new regeneration process will be initiated

between the final rinse and the

programme end.

In case of the high water softener setting,

it may occur also in the middle of the

programme, before the rinse (twice during

a programme). Regeneration initiation has

no impact on the cycle duration, unless it

occurs in the middle of a programme or at

the end of a programme with a short

drying phase. In that cases, the

regeneration prolongs the total duration of

a programme by additional 5 minutes.

Subsequently, the rinsing of the water

softener that lasts 5 minutes may begin in

the same cycle or at the beginning of the

next programme. This activity increases

the total water consumption of a

programme by additional 4 litres and the

total energy consumption of a programme

by additional 2 Wh. The rinsing of the

softener ends with a complete drain.

Each performed softener rinse (possible

more than one in the same cycle) may

prolong the programme duration by

another 5 minutes when it occurs at any

point at the beginning or in the middle of a

programme.

All the consumption values

mentioned in this section are

determined in accordance with

the currently applicable

standard in laboratory

conditions with water hardness

2.5mmol/L according to the

2019/2022 regulation (water

softener: level 3).

The pressure and the

temperature of water as well as

the variations of the mains

supply can change the values.

How to set the water softener

level

The rinse aid level

The rinse aid helps to dry the dishes

without streaks and stains. It is

automatically released during the hot rinse

phase.

It is possible to set the released quantity

of rinse aid between level 1 (minimum

quantity) and level 8 (maximum quantity).

Factory setting: level 5.

12

When the rinse aid chamber is empty, the

rinse aid indicator is on, notifying to refill

rinse aid. If the drying results are

satisfactory while using multi-tablets only,

it is possible to deactivate the dispenser

and the indicator. However, for the best

drying performance, always use rinse aid

and keep the rinse aid indicator active.

HINTS AND TIPS

General

Follow the hints below to ensure optimal

cleaning and drying results in daily use

and to protect the environment.

• Washing dishes in the dishwasher as

instructed in the user manual usually

consumes less water and energy than

washing dishes by hand.

16

• Load the dishwasher to its full capacity

to save water and energy. For best

cleaning results, arrange items in the

baskets as instructed in the user

manual and do not overload the

baskets.

• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. It

increases the water and energy

consumption. When needed, select a

programme with a prewash phase.

• Remove larger residues of food from

the dishes and empty cups and glasses

before putting them inside the

appliance.

• Soak or slightly scour cookware with

firmly cooked-on or baked-on food

before washing it in the appliance.

• Make sure that items in the baskets do

not touch or cover each other. Only

then can the water completely reach

and wash the dishes.

• You can use dishwasher detergent,

rinse aid and salt separately or you can

use the multi-tablets (e.g. ''All in 1'').

Follow the instructions on the

packaging.

• Select a programme according to the

type of load and the degree of soil.

offers the most efficient use of

water and energy consumption.

• To prevent limescale buildup inside the

appliance:

– Refill the salt container whenever

necessary.

– Use the recommended dosage of

the detergent and rinse aid.

– Make sure that the current level of

the water softener agrees with the

hardness of the water supply.

– Follow the instructions in the

chapter "Care and cleaning".

Using salt, rinse aid and

detergent

• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent

designed for dishwasher. Other

products can cause damage to the

appliance.

• In areas with hard and very hard water,

we recommend to use basic

dishwasher detergent (powder, gel,

tablets containing no additional

agents), rinse aid and salt separately

for optimal cleaning and drying results.

• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve

with short programmes. To prevent

detergent residues on the tableware,

we recommend that you use tablets

with long programmes.

• Always use the correct quantity of

detergent. Insufficient dosage of

detergent can result in poor cleaning

results and hard-water filming or

spotting on the items. Using too much

detergent with soft or softened water

results in detergent residues on the

dishes. Adjust the amount of detergent

based on the water hardness. Refer to

the instructions on the detergent

packaging.

• Always use the correct quantity of rinse

aid. Insufficient dosage of rinse aid

decreases the drying results. Using too

much rinse aid results in bluish layers

on the items.

• Make sure that the water softener level

is correct. If the level is too high, the

increased quantity of salt in the water

might result in rust on cutlery.

What to do if you want to stop

using multi-tablets

Before you start to use separately

detergent, salt and rinse aid, complete the

following steps:

1. Set the highest level of the water

softener.

2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid

containers are full.

3. Start the shortest programme with a

rinsing phase. Do not add detergent

and do put dishes in the baskets.

4. When the programme is complete,

adjust the water softener according to

the water hardness in your area.

5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse

aid.

Loading the baskets

• Always use the whole space of the

baskets.

17

• Use the appliance to wash dishwasher-

safe items only.

• Do not wash in the appliance items

made of wood, horn, aluminium, pewter

and copper as they could crack, warp,

get discoloured or pitted.

• Do not wash in the appliance items that

can absorb water (sponges, household

cloths).

• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and

pans) with the opening facing

downwards.

• Make sure that glass items do not

touch each other.

• Put light items in the upper basket.

Make sure that the items do not move

freely.

• Put cutlery and small items in the

cutlery basket.

• Move the upper basket upwards to

accommodate large items in the lower

basket.

• Make sure that the spray arms can

move freely before you start a

programme.

Before starting a programme

Before you start the selected programme,

make sure that:

• The filters are clean and correctly

installed.

• The cap of the salt container is tight.

• The spray arms are not clogged.

• There is enough salt and rinse aid

(unless you use multi-tablets).

• The arrangement of the items in the

baskets is correct.

• The programme is suitable to the type

of load and the degree of soil.

• The correct quantity of detergent is

used.

Unloading the baskets

1. Let the tableware cool down before

you remove it from the appliance. Hot

items can be easily damaged.

2. First remove items from the lower

basket, then from the upper basket.

After the programme is

completed, water can still

remain on the inside surfaces

of the appliance.

CARE AND CLEANING

WARNING! Before

maintenance, deactivate the

appliance and disconnect the

mains plug from the main

socket.

Dirty filters and clogged spray

arms decrease the washing

results. Make a check regularly

and, if necessary, clean them.

Cleaning the filters

The filter system is made of 3 parts.

C

B

A

1. Turn the filter (B) counterclockwise

and remove it.

2. Remove the filter (C) out of filter (B).

3. Remove the flat filter (A).

4. Wash the filters.

5. Make sure that there are no residues

of food or soil in or around the edge of

the sump.

6. Put back in place the flat filter (A).

Make sure that it is correctly positioned

under the 2 guides.

7. Reassemble the filters (B) and (C).

8. Put back the filter (B) in the flat filter

(A). Turn it clockwise until it locks.

CAUTION! An incorrect

position of the filters can cause

bad washing results and

damage to the appliance.

Cleaning the lower spray arm

We recommend to clean the lower spray

arm regularly to prevent soil from clogging

the holes.

Clogged holes can cause unsatisfactory

washing results.

1. To remove the lower spray arm, pull it

upwards.

2. Wash the spray arm under running

water. Use a thin pointed tool, e.g. a

toothpick, to remove particles of soil

from the holes.

3. To install the spray arm back, press it

downwards.

Cleaning the upper spray arms

We recommend to clean the upper spray

arms regularly to prevent soil from

clogging the holes. Clogged holes can

cause unsatisfactory washing results.

The upper spray arms are placed under

the upper basket. The spray arms (B) are

installed in the duct (A) with the mounting

elements (C).
