Advice regarding the first wash cycle

After the installation, remove the stoppers from the racks and the retaining elastic elements from the upper rack, if any. 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 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 Rinse-aid and refined salt). After the salt has been poured into the machine, the LOW SALT indicator light * switches off.

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

Child safety lock

The control panel lock can be activated when the dishwasher is switched on or when a cycle is in progress using the “Lock” button. Press again to deactivate the function.

Use the SETTINGS button to access the menu. The control panel lock can be activated automatically after 10/30 seconds from the cycle start.
