[. . . ] The salt container has always some water inside which will normally overflow when refilling with salt. Important: the salt indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after salt has been replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve, then the light remains illuminated for a long period of time. The functioning of the dishwasher is not affected. AA01 Caution Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes (not Rinse and Hold programme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time. This could cause corrosion. PAA18GB 22 Rinse aid The use of this liquid ensures thorough rinsing, spot and streak free drying, making the water run quickly off the dishes for sparkling results. 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. Use of detergent Before starting any of the dishwashing programmes, except for the rinse and hold programme, load the detergent in the dispenser. Use only tablets, powder or liquid detergents specifically designed for domestic dishwashers. Unsuitable detergents (such as those for washing by hand) do not contain the right ingredients for machine washing and hamper correct functioning of the machine. This will open it. Filling with rinse aid Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise. Top up with rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear Remember to CLOSE the lid after every refill. Caution Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash. Adjusting the dose According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (C) (position 1 - minimum dose, position 6 - maximum dose). Gradually 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. 65 D To help you to correctly dose the right amount of detergent, inside the container there are two reference marks: - MIN = 15 ml - MAX = 30 ml DE07 The amount of detergent to be used varies depending on how soiled the dishes are and the type of dishes being washed. We recommend the amounts shown in the programme chart on the next pages. All the programmes with prewash require a small extra amount of detergent to be poured over the lid of the dispenser, as shown on the picture. 32 C B 65 4 3 DE02 BR04 A Caution: Do not put liquid detergent into the rinse aid compartment. At the end of any washing programme the lid is always open, ready for the next wash. Since not all detergents are the same, you should also consult the instructions on the packet. Remember that insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor washing results whereas an excessive amount of detergent does not improve washing results and is also wasteful. Using no more than the correct amount of detergent also contributes to reducing pollution. Phosphate free detergents with enzymes These new detergents, although welcome from an ecological point of view, react far more susceptibly to water hardness than conventional products. Therefore, in order to avoid white lime deposits on crockery and the inner tub, you should add salt in the water softener even if the hardness of your water is as low as 4 dH (7 TH), when using these new detergents. PBR01GB 23 M M IN AX 1 21 Loading your machine Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food from the plates to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing performance. Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes. Use of the upper basket The upper basket is designed for plates (dessert plates, saucers, dinner plates up to 20 cm in diameter), salad bowls, cups and glasses; these should be arranged as shown in the pictures. [. . . ] Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a soft damp cloth. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvents (acetone, trichloroethylene etc. . . ). Cleaning the large filter (Once a month) Clean the large filter (A) on both sides under running water, using a brush. To take it out, remove the spray arm by pressing the two tongues (E), turn the ring (F) anticlockwise (towards the left) and then slide the whole part out. Refit the filter following the above instructions in reverse order. Prolonged periods of non-operation If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are advised to: unplug the appliance and turn off the water; fill the rinse aid dispenser; leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of unpleasant smells; leave the inside of the machine clean. E A Frost precautions F MA03 Caution: the dishwasher must not be used without filters. [. . . ]
