With the exception of the SOAK program, before every washing cycle it is necessary to add the required amount of detergent to the detergent dispenser. The rinse aid, on the other hand, should only be added as required. 18 User instructions ADDING THE RINSE AID The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the formation of scale deposits and staining; it is automatically added to the water during the final rinse cycle, from the container situated on the inner side of the door. • Rotate the container cap anticlockwise by ¼ of a turn and remove it. • Add the rinse aid until the container is full (approximately 140 cc). The optical level indicator on the side of the cap should be completely obscured. Refill the rinse aid when the optical level indicator becomes clear again, or when the rinse aid warning light illuminates. • Replace the cover and turn it in a clockwise direction. • Use a cloth to remove any spillage of rinse aid which might lead to the formation of excess foam. ADJUSTING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER SETTING The dishwasher is factory set for medium water hardness. However it possible to change the setting by turning the dispenser’s selector to the desired position: the amount of rinse aid dispensed is proportional to the selector position. • • • • • To adjust the rinse aid setting, rotate the dispenser cap through a quarter turn in an anticlockwise direction and remove it. Then use a screwdriver to rotate the rinse aid selector to the desired position. The amount of rinse aid must be increased if the washed dishes appear dull or feature circular stains. If, on the other hand, the dishes are sticky or have white streaks, it is necessary to reduce the rinse aid setting. 19 User instructions ADDING THE DETERGENT To open the detergent dispenser cap, lightly press the button P. Add the detergent and close the cap carefully. During the washing cycle, the dispenser will be opened automatically. • • • • • • When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on models). Use only detergents specially formulated for dishwashers. For optimal washing results it is important to use a good quality detergent. The detergent packs must be sealed and stored in a dry place to prevent the formation of lumps which may negatively affect washing results. Once opened the detergent packs should not be kept for too long, otherwise the detergent loses its effectiveness. [. . . ] Interrupt the program and switch off the dishwasher. Switch the dishwasher back on, program it again and start the washing cycle. If the problem persists, contact the after-sales service. Water heating malfunction The water is not heated or the heating parameters are not correct. [. . . ]
