[. . . ] One half of the cutlery basket can be placed in the basket selected for the HALF LOAD program. WARNING: dishes and cutlery placed in the basket not selected will not be washed. 18 User instructions USE OF 3/1 PRODUCTS OPTION (depending on model) Shown on the DISPLAY (G): "3/1/Normal detergent". Press (D) to display the option and press (E) to enable the (3/1) option or return to the use of normal detergent (Normal). This option has been developed for use with powder or tablet detergents containing substances that substitute for regenerating salt and rinse aid, known on the market as "3 in 1" or "triple action" products. In this case the dishwasher will make the most effective use of the product, not using any salt or rinse aid which the appliance may contain. If the water hardness has been set on a value above H3, and the 3/1 option is activated, the DISPLAY (G) flashes, warning of a setting error, because these products are not suitable for use with very hard water. This does not prevent the use of the option, but the washing results might not be of the best. EXTRA SANITISATION RINSE (depending on model) (available in all programs except the soak program, standard in ULTRA CLEAN programs) Shown on the DISPLAY (G): "Extra hygiene 1/0". Press (D) to display the option and press (E) to enable (1 on display) or disable (0 on display) it. This function performs an extra sanitising rinse at the end of the washing cycle, assuring a further reduction in the number of bacteria present. If the temperature falls while the sanitisation rinse is in progress (e. g. due to a power blackout or because the door is opened), the DISPLAY (G) flashes until the dishwasher is switched off or a new program is set, to warn that the option has not been carried out. 19 User instructions TO SAVE ON ENERGY!· · When using the dishwasher for the first time, in addition to the salt it is also necessary to add one litre of water to the container. Each time the salt container is refilled, make sure that the cap is securely closed. The mixture of water and detergent must never penetrate the salt container, as this would compromise the operation of the regeneration system. In the event of this occurring, the warranty will be invalidated. Only use regenerating salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers. If using salt tablets, do not fill the container completely. · 23 User instructions · · Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time, may damage the water softening system. When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion. Be careful not to confuse the salt and detergent packages; adding detergent to the salt container will damage the water softening system. 4. 2 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, 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. 24 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. To add rinse aid: · Open the door. · Rotate the container cap anticlockwise by ¼ of a turn and remove it.
