Prior to using the machine for the first time
• Check whether the electricity and supply water specifications match the values indicated by the
installation instructions for the machine.
• Remove all packaging materials inside the machine.
• Set the water softener.
• Add 2 kg salt into the salt compartment and fill with water up to a level at which it will almost
overflow.
• Fill the rinse aid compartment.
The importance of water decalcification
For a good washing function, the dishwasher needs soft, i.e. less calcareous water. Otherwise, white
lime residues will remain on the dishes and the interior equipment. This will negatively affect your
machine’s washing, drying and shining performance. When water flows through the softener system,
the ions forming the hardness are removed from the water and the water reaches the softness
required to obtain the best washing result. Depending on the level of hardness of the inflowing water,
these ions that harden the water accumulate rapidly inside the softener system. Therefore, the
softener system has to be refreshed so that it operates with the same performance also during the
next wash. For this purpose, dishwasher salt is used.
Filling with salt /NLY IF DETERGENTTABLET OR GEL DOES NOT HAVE SALT CONTAINED IN THEM
Use softener salt specifically produced for use in dishwashers. To
put softener salt, first remove the
lower basket and then open the salt
compartment cap by turning it
counter clockwise.1 2 At first fill the
compartment with 2kg salt and
water 3at overflowing level If
available,using the funnel 4 provided
will m ake filling easier; re fit the cap
and close it.
After every 20th-30th wash, add salt
into your machine until it fills up
(approx. 1.5 kg)
Fill the salt compartment with
water at first use only.
We recommend that you use small-
grained or powder softener salt.
Do not put table salt into your
machine. Otherwise, the function of
the softener compartment may
decrease over time. When you start
your dishwasher, the salt
compartment gets filled with water. Therefore, put the softener salt prior to starting your machine.
This way, overflowing salt gets immediately cleaned up through the wash operation. If you are not
going to wash any dishes immediately after putting salt, then run a short washing program with an
empty machine in order to avoid any damage ( to prevent corrosion ) to your machine due to the s alt
overflow while filling in the salt container.
