Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the appliance has been installed, immediately before running the first wash cycle, completely fill the salt dispenser with water and add only then approximately 1 kg of salt (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). The water may overflow: this is normal and is not a cause for concern. Select the water hardness value (see chapter entitled Rinse aid and refined salt). - After the salt has been poured into the machine, the LOW SALT indicator light* switches off.

If the salt container is not filled, the water softener and the heating element may be damaged as a result.

even with the wall. This appliance can also be recessed

under a single worktop* (see the Assembly instruction

sheet).

3. Position the dishwasher on a level and sturdy floor. If the

floor is uneven, the front feet of the appliance may be adjusted

until it reaches a horizontal position (the angle of inclination

must not exceed 2 degrees). If the appliance is levelled

correctly, it will be more stable and much less likely to move

or cause vibrations and noise while it is operating.

4*. Adjust the height of the rear foot from the front of the appliance* on the central lower part of the dishwasher, turning a hexagonal spanner (red color) with an opening of 8 mm in a clockwise direction to increase the height or in an anticlockwise direction to decrease the height.

Anti-condensation strip*

After installing the dishwasher, open the door and stick the adhesive transparent strip under the wooden shelf in order to protect it from any condensation that may form.
