Loading the salt

■ On the bottom of the machine there is a

container for the salt for regenerating

the softener.

■ It is important to use only a salt that is

specifically designed for dishwasher.

Other types of salt contain small quantities

of insoluble particles which over a long

period of time may affect and deteriorate

the softener performance.

■ To add salt, unscrew the cap of the con-

tainer on the bottom and then refill the

container.

■ During this operation a little water will

overflow; but keep adding salt until the

container is full. When the container is

full, clean the thread of salt residue and

retighten the tap.

use of the appliance, it should be refilled

from time to time according to the

regulation of the water softener unit.

IMPORTANT

(Only for first start up)

When the appliance is used for the

first time, after completely filling the

salt container, it is necessary to add

water until the container overflows.

any regenerating salt, nor need you make

any adjustment, as your water is soft.

According to the degree of hardness of

your water, regulate the softener unit in the

following way:

1. remove the lower rack. Unscrew and

remove the cap from the salt dispenser

located in the bottom of the tub

(fig. A"1");

2. turn the selector screw to the required

position with a screwdriver or a knife.

WATER SOFTENER UNIT

Depending on the source of the supply,

water contains varying amounts of limestone

and minerals which are deposited on the

dishes leaving whitish stains and marks.

The higher the level of these minerals

present in the water, the harder the water is.

The dishwasher is fitted with a water

softener unit which, through the use of

special regenerating salt, supplies

softened water for washing the dishes.

The softener unit can treat water with a

hardness of up to 60°fH (French grading)

or 33°dH (German grading) through five

different settings.

The degree of hardness of your water can

be obtained from your water supply

company.
