In this mode, the dishwasher indicator panel (lights or display depending on model) functions more slowly (switch-on once every 5 seconds). REMOVING THE DISHES At the end of the wash program, wait at least 20 minutes before removing the dishes, to allow them to cool. To ensure that any drops of water left in the top basket do not drip onto the dishes still in the bottom basket, you are advised always to empty the bottom basket first. 13 User instructions 4. Operating instructions Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare it for use as follows: • Add rinse aid and detergent 4. 1 Using the rinse aid and detergent dispensers The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are situated on the inner part of the door: the detergent dispenser is on the left, and the rinse aid dispenser is on the right. With the exception of the SOAK program, it is necessary to add the required amount of detergent to the detergent dispenser before every wash cycle. The rinse aid, on the other hand, should only be added as required. ADDING RINSE AID 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. • Rotate the container cap anticlockwise by ¼ of a turn and remove it. • Add the rinse aid until the container is full (approximately 140 ml). The optical level indicator on the side of the cap should be completely dark. Refill the rinse aid when the optical level indicator turns clear again, or when the rinse aid warning light turns on. • Replace the cover and turn it clockwise. • Use a cloth to remove any spillage of rinse aid which might lead to the formation of excess foam. 14 User instructions ADJUSTING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER SETTING The dishwasher is factory set for medium water hardness. It is possible to change this setting by turning the dispenser selector to the required position: the amount of rinse aid dispensed depends on the selector position. • • • • • To adjust the rinse aid setting, rotate the dispenser cap a quarter of a turn anticlockwise and remove it. Then rotate the rinse aid selector to the desired position. The amount of rinse aid must be increased if the washed dishes appear dull or have circular stains. If, on the other hand, the dishes are sticky or have white streaks, it is necessary to reduce the rinse aid dosage. ADDING DETERGENT To open the detergent dispenser cap, lightly press the button P. Add the detergent and close the cap carefully. During the wash cycle, the dispenser will open automatically. 15 User instructions • • • When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on model).
