To select a different level be sure that the dishwasher is off and then proceed as follows: Filling with salt Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes.
Rinse aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, and spot and streak free drying. 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. Filling with rinse aid SO544 1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise. 4.
Using your appliance For best results we recommend you to use the cutlery grid provided (if the size and dimensions of the cutlery allow it). Loading your appliance Before placing dishes in the machine, remove any scraps of food, to avoid clogging the filters and consequently reducing the performance. Do not load very small items which can fall through the baskets. Open the door and slide out the baskets to load the dishes.
Use of detergent If using detergent in tablets proceed as follows: Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. 1. For all programmes; place 1 tablet inside the detergent dispenser. 2. Always close the lid. If using powder detergents proceed as follows: 3. For all programmes with prewash; place a portion of a further tablet on the lid of the detergent dispenser. 1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D). 2.

Operating sequence The start of the countdown will occur after about 6 seconds from the last pressure of a push button (programme push button). The countdown will decrease with step of 3 hours and you are informed of this by the indicator lights of the hours. During the countdown the only indicator lights illuminated are the programme light and the light of the number of hours to the start of the programme. Once the delayed time has elapsed the programme will start automatically.
Maintenance and cleaning Internal cleaning External cleaning Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth. Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....). We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.
Something not working Certain problems are due to lack of simple maintenance or oversights, which can be solved easily without calling out an engineer. The dishwasher is fitted with a number of alarm systems which can help you to quickly determine the cause of any problems. The dishwasher will not start or stops during operation. All push buttons are inoperative except for the On/Off push button.
If after all these checks, the problem persists, contact your local Service Force Centre, quoting the model and serial number. Protection against flooding In order to prevent water floods, the machine has been provided with a device in the bottom of the machine. It comes into operation as a result of any water leaks in the machine. This information can be found on the rating plate located on the right hand side of the dishwasher door (see picture).
