Using your dishwasher Before first use o Install the appliance as per the installation instructions contained within this booklet. o Fill the water softener with ½ litre of tap water and then fill with specialist dishwasher salt. After this you should set the water softener level. o Fill the rinse aid dispenser and then set the rinse aid dosage. Filling with dishwasher salt IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially designed for use in a dishwasher.
o Pour salt into the water softener, using the funnel that is supplied with the appliance. You should add approximately 1.2 kg of salt into the water softener. o It is perfectly normal for a small amount of water to come out of the water softener, whilst you are filling it with salt. This does not mean that the water softener is filled with the correct amount of salt. o Refit and fully tighten the water softener cap.
o Using the water hardness chart, you should turn the arrow to the setting that is appropriate for your water hardness. o The “middle” selector position is halfway between the minus and plus symbols. o IMPORTANT: If you are using 3 in 1 dishwasher tablets and live in a medium or hard water area, then you should still fill the water softener with salt. The water softener arrow should be turned to the minus setting.
o To access the rinse aid dispenser, you should turn the cap anticlockwise and it will pop out of the hole. Then slowly pour in liquid rinse aid, the rinse aid dispenser will hold approximately 140 ml of rinse aid. o You should continue to fill with rinse aid, until the level indicator turns completely black. o Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, as this could cause oversudsing when a wash program is selected.

All items being washed inside of the dishwasher should have food scraps removed from them before being loaded into the appliance.
IMPORTANT: THE DISHWASHER SHOULD NEVER BE SET ON A WASH CYCLE WITHOUT THE FILTERS BEING INSIDE OF THE APPLIANCE.
