Filling with salt

Only use salt specifically designed for use in

dishwashers.

All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in

a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water

softener.

Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete

washing programmes.

This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which

may have been spilt, remaining on the bottom of the

machine for any period of time, which may cause

corrosion.

To fill:

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket and unscrew the

cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.

2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary

only before filling with salt for the first time).

3. Using the funnel provided,

pour in the salt until the

container is full.

4. Replace the cap making

sure that there is no trace

of salt on the screw

thread or on the gasket.

5. Screw on the cap tightly

turning it clockwise until it

stops with a click.

The salt container will require topping up periodically.

A salt indicator light on the control panel will come on when

the salt has finished.

The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain

illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been

replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched

on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then

this can take longer. The function of the machine is not

affected.

Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with

salt, this is quite normal.

Rinse aid

Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring

thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying.

The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about

110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing

programmes, depending upon the dosage setting.

Filling with rinse aid

1. Open the container by pressing the release button (A).

2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The

maximum level for filling is indicated by "max".

BR07

Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill.

Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an

absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next

wash.

Only use branded rinse aid for dishwashers. Never fill the

rinse aid dispenser with any other substances (e.g.

dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would

damage the appliance.

Adjusting the dose

According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the

dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (position

1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).

The dose is factory set in

position 4.

Increase the dose if there are

drops of water or lime spots

on the dishes after washing.

Reduce it if there are sticky

whitish streaks on the dishes

or a bluish film on glassware

or knife blades.

Top up the rinse aid when the indicator light on the control

panel illuminates.
