[. . . ] We should just like to remind users that too little detergent does not clean the dishes properly whilst too much detergent will not produce better results and is also a waste. 7 The amount of detergent to be used varies according to how dirty the dishes are and on the type of dishes to be washed. We advise using 20÷30 g of detergent in the wash section of detergent compartment (B). IMPORTANT Do not use an excessive amount of detergent and help limit damage to the environment at the same time. O Cutlery basket (fig. 7) Place the side racks in the lower position and fill with 6 + 6 knives(R); in the spaces left insert cutlery with the handles down. Take care not to load more than two different types of cutlery in the same compartment. 14 R A 15 TYPES OF DETERGENT Detergent tablets Detergent tablets of different manufacturers dissolve at different speeds, for this reason, during short programmes, some detergent tablets may be not fully effective, because they are not completely dissolved. If these products are used, is recommended to choose longer programmes to guarantee the complete use of the detergent. IMPORTANT To get satisfactory washing results, the tablets MUST be placed in the wash section of the detergent container and NOT directly in the tub. the effectiveness of detergents containing the built in water softener/salt depends on the hardness of your water supply. Check that the hardness of your water supply is within the effective range given on the detergent packaging. If when using this type of product, you don't get satisfactory washing results, please contact the detergent manufacturer. In certain circumstances use of combined detergents can cause: limescale deposits on dishes or in the dishwasher; a reduction in washing and drying performance. LOADING THE RINSE AID The rinse aid The rinse aid, which is automatically released during the last rinsing cycle, helps the dishes to dry quickly and prevents spots and stains forming. Filling the rinse aid container The rinse aid container can be found to the left of the detergent container (fig. To open the lid, push the reference mark and, in the same time, pull the tab of opening. It is always advisable to use rinse aid that is specifically designed for dishwasher. Check the rinse aid level through the indicator eye (C) which is located on the dispenser. C Concentrated detergents The concentrated detergents, with reduced alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in conjunction with 50°C wash programmes, have a smaller impact on the environment and they protect the dishes and the dishwasher. The 50°C wash programmes purposely exploit the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes, allowing therefore, with the use of the concentrated detergents, to achieve the same results of the 65°C programmes but at a lower temperature. IMPORTANT Any problems which arise as a direct result of the use of these products are not covered by our warranty. FULL EMPTY Please note that using the "3 in 1" combined detergents, the rinse aid and salt indicator lights (only used on selected models) are superfluous, so you must ignore the lights. If washing and/or drying problems occur, we recommend you return to use traditional separate products (salt, detergent and rinse agent). This will ensure that the water softener in the dishwasher operates correctly. In this case, we recommends that you: refill both the salt and rinse aid container; dark light Combined detergents The detergents that also contain the rinse aid must be placed in the wash section of the detergent container. The rinse aid container must be empty (if it is not empty, set the rinse aid regulator to lowest position before using combined detergents). Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6 The regulator (D) is placed under the lid and can be turned using a coin. The limestone content of the water considerably affects the formation of limescale and the drying performance. It is therefore important to regulate the quantity of rinse aid to achieve good washing results. If, after the wash, streaks occur on the dishes, decrease the amount by one position. If whitish spots occur, increase the amount by one position. "3 in 1" combined detergents If you are planning to use combined detergents i. e. [. . . ] Turn the programme selector to "RESET" position, wait until the indicator light "WASHING" goes off and press the "ON/OFF" button. If any problem occurs, turn the dishwasher off by pressing the "ON/OFF" button and start the procedure again from the beginning (STEP 1). WARNING!To ensure the correct operation of the anti-overflow safety device, we recommend that the dishwasher is not moved or tilted during operation. If however it is necessary to tilt or move the dishwasher, please ensure that the washing cycle is complete and that there is no remaining water inside the dishwasher. 23 PROGRAMME GUIDE Check list Detergent for washing Detergent for soaking (Prewash) Programme contents Hot rinse with rinse aid Avarage duration in minutes Special function buttons available With cold water (15°C) (Tolerance ± 10%) COLD RINSE Short cold pre-wash for items that are stored in the dishwasher until you are ready to wash a full load.
