4 Prewashing Tips for energy saving Following information will help you use the product in an ecological and energy-efficient manner. • Wipe away any coarse food remnants on the dishes before putting them in the product. • Operate the product after filling it completely. • When selecting a programme, refer to the "Programme Table". • Do not put more detergent than suggested on the detergent package. Water softening system C The dishwasher requires soft water.
Adding salt Water softening system needs to be regenerated in order for the product operates with the same performance continuously. Dishwasher salt is used for this purpose. C Use in your product only the special softening salts produced particularly for use in dishwashers. C We recommend using granular or powder softening salts. Do not use salts containing insoluble substances such as table salt or common salt in the machine. Performance of water softening system may deteriorate in time.
5. If you will not start a washing programme immediately after adding the salt, run the machine empty in the shortest programme to dissolve and wash away the scattered salt in the machine. C Since different salt brands in the market have different particle sizes and since the water hardness may vary, dissolution of the salt in water may take a couple of hours. Therefore, Salt Indicator remains on for a while after adding salt into the machine.
3. Close the detergent dispenser lid by pressing on it lightly. A "click" will be heard when the lid is closed. C In programmes with prewash and at high temperature, in which you use tablet detergents, make sure that the detergent dispenser lid is closed firmly. C Use powder detergent in short programmes without prewash since the solubility of the tablet detergent changes depending on the temperature and time.
Rinse aid C The rinse aid used in dishwashers is a special combination used to increase drying efficiency and prevent water or limescale stains on the washed items. For this reason, care must be paid to have rinse aid in the rinse aid reservoir and to use rinse aids produced specially for dishwashers only.
