Only use detergent specifically designed for use in dishwashers. q q -3- Description of the appliance 4 5 -4- Spray arm (1) It is important to keep all the holes in the spray arm clear. A clogged hole can seriously affect washing efficiency. If the spray arm needs cleaning, unscrew the nut anticlockwise, remove the washer and lift off the spray arm. Clear the holes and shake out any food remnants. Do not fill the rinse aid dispenser with liquid detergent. Water softener (6) This dishwasher is equipped with a water softener for hard water, therefore shall the rinse aid dispenser be set for a low dosage. The lime in hard water causes white deposits to occur on dishes and to the interior of the dishwasher. To prevent this, the water has to pass through a special container where the hardness is removed. Since the water softener uses coarse dishwasher salt, you will have to refill the salt container after a certain number of dishwashing cycles. It is important to fill the compartment with coarse dishwasher salt before using the machine for the first time, if you live in an area where the water is calciferous. The indicator light on the control panel is lit when the container requires refilling. 1. Unscrew the filler cap to the salt container anticlockwise. 2. Fill the salt container with water (only the first time). 3. Fill the container with coarse salt, using the funnel supplied. 4. Remove the funnel and wipe off any spillage around the filler opening. 5. Screw the filler cap back properly in place. The water softener is now ready for the first load of dishes. Always make sure that there is coarse grained salt in the container, which holds about 1 litre. How to adjust the water softener, see chapter "Adjusting the water softener". Use only special salt for dishwashing machines, ordinary domestic salt can damage the water softener. Coarse filter/microfilter (2) The purpose of the coarse filter is to catch large objects such as toothpicks and pieces of eggshell. Make sure that the filter is always clean. Turn the coarse filter anticlockwise. Lift it out and rinse it under running water whenever necessary. Fine filter (3) It is just as important to keep this filter clean. A dirty or clogged filter will always impair washing efficiency. The fine filter can easily be lifted out for cleaning when you have removed the coarse filter. Detergent dispenser (4) Open the lid to the dispenser by pressing the lid catch towards the compartment. Consult the instructions on the detergent packet, fill the compartment accordingly and close the lid. Remember that the instructions usually refer to full-size dishwashers, for example when using detergent tablets, it is sufficient to use just half a tablet. Pre-wash detergent is poured into the smaller compartment to the left when needed. This detergent is active allready at prerinsing. Make sure that there is no items that prevents the lid from opening. Only use detergents specially designed for dishwashers. Rinse aid dispenser (5) Use of rinse aid will result in cleaner and faster drying of the load, since it helps water and soil to run off. Too much rinse aid may result in streakiness, too little may cause white spots. The dispenser holds about 150 ml. This is enough for approx. 60 wash cycles, depending on the dosage setting. Adjust the dosage setting according to the hardness of the water. You can set the dosage between 1 - 6, equivalent to 1 - 6 ml rinse aid. Factory setting is 1. Begin at the lowest dosage setting and increase if necessary by turning the setting arrow with e.g. the handle of a spoon. The indicator light on the control panel is lit when the dispenser requires refilling. 1. Open the lid to the dispenser by pressing the lid catch towards the compartment and lift the lid. 2. Fill up with rinse aid; do not overfill. 3. Wipe off any spillage carefully to prevent excessive foaming during the next wash programme. 4. Close the lid and press until it locks again. -5- The control panel Indicator and control lamps A Display On/Off button Water softener button Programme buttons Delay start button Combination buttons "A": In addition to selecting a programme, you can by pressing these two buttons adjust the setting of the water softener and cancel a programme in progress.
