PPM (Parts per million) Level Use of salt Setting the water softener The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured on Parts Per Million (Ca CO3). The softener can treat water hardness up to 1200 ppm via 5 adjustment levels. The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area. If you use phosphate free detegents containing enzymes, use salt even if the hardness of your water is below level 1. The dishwasher is factory set at level 2. If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be adjusted. 0-80 81-200 201-400 401-600 601-900 901-1200 1 2 3 4 5 * NO YES YES YES YES YES * If your water is below level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is no need to use salt. In this case adjust the setting of the water softener on level 1 without using salt.

All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in dishwasher, specially table salt, will damage the water softener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes (not the Rinse and Hold programme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion. To fill: 1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container. 2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container, (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time). 3. Then using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is full. Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal. 4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket. 5. Screw on the cap tightly. The salt container will require topping up periodically. The salt cap has a refill indicator window in the centre. A green floater is clearly visible when there is salt inside the container, and almost disappears when the salt has finished, reminding you to add salt. LE SA LT SA LZ SA L SE SR06 SR11 8 PFS01/1GB Rinse aid Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring through rinsing, spot and streak free drying. The dispenser, which is positioned inside the door, holds about 110 ml of rinse aid, which is sufficient for 16 - 40 dishwashing programmes, depending upon the dosage setting. Filling with rinse aid 1. Open the container by turning the lid (A) anticlockwise. 2. Add the rinse aid until the container is completely full. The indicator (B) will be completely dark. 3. Top up the rinse aid when the indicator (B) becomes clear. Ensure that the lid is closed after every refill. Do not put liquid detergent in the rinse aid department. Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess foaming during the next wash. BR03 BR01 A B m a x 6543 21 Adjusting the dose According to the finish and drying results obtained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means of the 6 position selector (C) (position 1 minimum dosage, position 6 maximum dosage). Start from position 3. Gradually increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks on the dishes. BR02 m a x C 6543 21 9 PFR01/1GB Use of detergent Only use detergents specifically designed for use in dishwashers. If using powder detergents proceed as follows: 1. Open the dispenser lid by pulling the catch (D). 2. Add the detergent according to the recommendations in the programme chart. As all detergents are not the same, you should also consult the instructions on the packet specially for tablets. To help correctly dose the right amount of detergent, inside the dispenser there are two reference marks: - MIN = 15 g - MAX = 30 g 3. Always close the dispenser lid. 4. If the programme has a prewash add the required detergent over the lid of the dispenser. If using detergent in tablets proceed as follows: 1. For all programmes; add 1 tablet inside the detergent dispenser. 2. Always close the dispenser lid. 3. For all programmes with prewash; add a portion of a further tablet on the lid of the detergent dispenser. Insufficient quantities of detergent will produce poor washing results, whereas an excessive amounts of detergent will not improve washing results and is also wasteful. Using no more than the correct amount also contributes to reducing pollution.
