Because we continually strive to improve our products, we may change our specifications and designs without prior notice. This appliance has been designed, constructed and distributed in compliance with the safety requirements of EC directives. 4 73/23/EC 89/336/EC 93/68/EC IEC 436/DIN 44990 EN 50242 The dishwasher should only be operated on the voltage specified. The life of your machine and your safety depend on you using an electrical installation compliant to standards. [. . . ] Three types of detergent are available - Phosphate and containing chlorine. - Phosphate containing no chlorine - Neither containing phosphate nor chlorine New compact powders are generally phosphatefree. As phosphates have water softening properties, we suggest you add salt to the salt container even if the hardness of your water is as low as a 6 clarke degrees. In hard water areas if a phosphate free detergent is used, white marks on the dishes and glasses may be observed. This may be prevented by increasing the amount of detergent, using a programme with a higher wash temperature or using a detergent with chlorine. 11 The float drops and is no longer visible when the salt container needs to be refilled. To fill the container with softening salt, remove the lower rack first and unscrew the cap of the water softener turning anti clockwise . S A LT S A LT Only use special pelletized dishwasher salt in your machine to soften the hard water. Never use other types of salts including table salt, animal feeding salt, sea salt, culinary salt. These types of salt do not dissolve in water easily and will damage your appliance beyond repair. S AL Z S AL Z SE L SE L TU Z TU Z Z TU Z SAL You will obtain the best results from your dishwasher if you use a separate detergent, rinse aid and water-softening salt. Detergent manufacturers also produce combined detergents known as 'two-in-one' and 'threein-one'. Three-in-one: These products contain detergent, rinse aid and water-softening salt. Two-in-one: These products contain detergent and either rinse aid or water-softening salt. In general, you will obtain satisfactory results from combined detergents only under specific usage conditions. These detergents contain predetermined amounts of rinse aid and/or softening salt. This means that you cannot adjust the amount of water-softening salt and rinse aid that you use to suit the water hardness level in your home. You should bear the following points in mind when using such detergents: - Be sure to check the specifications of the product you are using and whether it is a combined product or not. - The use of these products at the correct appliance settings will ensure economical use of salt and/or rinse aid. - If the detergent is in tablet form, never place these in the internal section or cutlery basket of the dishwasher. Always place the tablets in the detergent dispenser of the detergent holder. - If you use combined detergents without adding salt, lime scale may form especially on glasses. To avoid lime scale formation: Put your appliance's water softener setting at "1" and add salt. When the salt is used up, add more salt to the water softener. - These detergents do not contain rinse aid so you need to use the rinse aid setting as described in the manual, making sure that there is rinse aid in the rinse aid dispenser with every wash and that you refill the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid every time it is empty. - These detergents will not give you the same drying performance that you can obtain by using separate detergent, salt and rinse aid. To increase the drying performance: Put your appliance's rinse aid setting at "1" and apply rinse aid. When the rinse aid is used up, add more rinse aid to the rinse aid dispenser. [. . . ] Incorrect repositioning of the filters will produce poor washing results. Cleaning of the filters is vital to ensure correct operation of the machine. Main filter Coarse filter Micro filter Turn the nut anti clockwise and remove both the nut and the spray arm. Put the spray arm back on and screw on the nut turning clockwise until a clicking sound is heard. [. . . ]
