Before washing for the first time 1. Water hardness In order to achieve good dishwashing results, the dishwasher needs soft water (water with low mineral content). Hard water leaves a white coating on dishes and the dishwasher. Contact the local water utility to check the water hardness in your area. This is important to determine how much detergent and rinse aid to use. In general, more rinse aid and detergent are needed for hard water. 2. Basic settings Open the door and press the main power switch.
Before washing for the first time Table continued from last page Add rinse aid 1. Open the rinse aid compartment lid. 2. Carefully top up with rinse aid to the level marked max. 3.
