User instructions

If the dishes fail to dry or remain dull, check that:

there is rinse aid inside the special container;

the rinse aid dispenser setting is correct;

the detergent used is of good quality and has not lost its effectiveness (for example, through incorrect storage, with the box left open).

If the dishes show signs of streaking, staining, etc., check that:

the rinse aid dispenser setting is not too high.

If there are visible traces of rust inside the tank:

the tank is made of steel, and therefore any rust marks are due to external elements (fragments of rust from the water pipes, pots, cutlery, etc.). Special products are commercially available to remove such marks;

check that the amount of detergent being used is correct. Certain detergents can be more corrosive than others.

check that the cap of the salt container is securely closed, and that the water softening setting is correct.

If after following the above troubleshooting instructions the problem persists, call the nearest After-Sales Centre.

WARNING: any operations performed on the appliance by unauthorised persons are not covered by the warranty and shall be paid for by the user.
