Only use products which have been specifically designed

for dishwashers. Do not use table salt or industrial salt.

Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

If you are using a multi-function product, we recommend

that you add salt in any case, especially if the water is hard

or very hard.

(Followtheinstructionsgivenonthepackaging.)

If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and

LOW RINSE AID* indicator lights will remain lit.

The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher

(seeDescription)

and should be filled:

• WhentheLOWRINSEAIDindicatorlightinthecontrolpanel

is lit*;

• Whenthegreenfloat* on the cap of the salt dispenser is no

longer visible.

• Seeautonomyinthewaterhardnesstable.

1.Remove thelower rackandunscrew the

containercap(anticlockwise).

2. Only the first time you do this: fill the water

dispenser up to the edge.

3.Positionthefunnel

(seefigure)

and fill the salt

containerrightuptoitsedge(approximately1

kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak out.

4.Removethefunnelandwipeanysaltresidueawayfromthe

opening; rinse the cap under running water and then screw it on.

It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add salt

to the container.

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can

getintothecontainerduringthewashcycle(thiscoulddamage

the water softener beyond repair).

Whenever you need to add salt, we recommend carrying out

the procedure before the washing cycle is started.

Setting the water hardness

For perfect water softener operation, it is essential that the

adjustment be based on the water hardness in your house. Ask

your local water supplier for this information. The factory setting

is for medium water hardness.
