GB GB . 2. Salt Salt The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils. The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water. Loading the Salt into the Softener Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers. The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows: - Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container; - If you are filling the container for the first time, fill it with water; - Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and intro duce about 2 kg of salt. It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container. - Unscrew the cap from the salt container; - On the neck of the container there is a ring with an arrow on it (see figure above). If necessary, turn the ring anti-clockwise from the "-" sign towards the "+" setting, according to water hardness. - It is highly recommended that the following table be consulted when making adjustments. Adjusting Salt Consumption The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed according to the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level of salt consumption so that it remains at a minimum. To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows: Wash Cycle Table Cycle Cycle Selection Information Description of cycle Detergent Rinse Aid Very dirty dishes, pots and pans (not to be used with delicate Heavy Duty items). Pre-wash with hot water. Drying. 30g Normally dirty dishes, pots and pans. Normal Wash IEC-EN 50242 30g For dishes that need to be rinsed and dried only. [. . . ] It is preferable to place serving dishes and lids on the sides of the racks in order to avoid blocking the rotation of the top spray arm. - Deep pots should be slanted to allow the water to flow out. - The silverware basket can be doubled (see Fig. A) so that only one section may be used when the silverware load is light.
