Operating instructions Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed, prepare for use as follows: · Adjust the water softening system; · Add the regenerating salt; · Add the rinse aid and detergent. 4. 1 Using the water softening system The amount of scale contained in the water (water hardness index) can cause whitish staining on the dry dishes, which tend to become dull over time. The dishwasher is equipped with an automatic softening system which uses a special regenerating salt to reduce the hardness of the water. The dishwasher is factory set for water hardness level 3 (average hardness 41-60°dF ­ 24-31°dH). SALT When using water of medium hardness, the regenerating salt container should be refilled after approximately 20 washing cycles. The salt container can hold approximately 1. 7 Kg of salt in grains. The container is situated at the bottom of the dishwasher. After removing the lower basket, unscrew the salt container cap by turning it anticlockwise and pour in the salt using the funnel supplied with the dishwasher. Before replacing the cap, remove any salt residues from around the opening. · 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. If, on the other hand, the dishes are sticky or have white streaks, it is necessary to reduce the rinse aid setting. 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 SUPER program is selected, in addition to the normal dose of detergent, it is necessary to add an additional amount inside compartment G or H. 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. Do not use detergents formulated for washing dishes by hand, because they produce a great deal of foam and may negatively affect the operation of the dishwasher. An insufficient amount of detergent will result in a partial removal of dirt from the dishes, whereas an excessive amount is wasteful and does not improve the washing results. The market offers liquid and powder detergents with differing chemical compositions, which may contain phosphates, or be phosphate-free but contain natural enzymes. - Detergents containing phosphates are more effective against grease and starch at temperatures above 60°C. [. . . ] Troubleshooting The dishwasher is equipped with a self-diagnostics system that is capable of detecting and signalling a number of possible faults. In the event of a fault or malfunction, before calling the After-sales service centre, we suggest that you first consult the troubleshooting guide below. If the problem persists even after implementing the recommended solutions, call the After-sales service centre after having carried out the following: · making a note of the message displayed by the self-diagnostics system; · unplug the power cord from the socket; · shut off the water supply tap. TABLE OF FAULTS DETECTED BY THE SELF-DIAGNOSTICS SYSTEM FAULT DESCRIPTION The system which limits the water level inside the dishwasher (Level Safety Device) has been tripped. Since the cause might be a temporary failure, try reprogramming the dishwasher. [. . . ]
