[. . . ] The rinse aid dispenser should be filled: • whenever the indicator light (H) signals that it is empty. Illuminated light: add rinse aid; unlit light: there is no shortage of rinse aid in the dispenser. €¢ when the LOW RINSE AID* indicator light on the panel flashes; 1. Open the dispenser by turning the lid (G) in an anticlockwise H direction. Pour in the rinse aid, making sure it does not overflow from the dispenser. If this happens, clean F the spill immediately with a G sponge. NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the cap of the dispenser (in an anti-clockwise direction). For the first wash cycle only: fill the dispenser up to the edges with water. Position the funnel provided correctly (see figure) and fill the salt dispenser up to the edges (approximately 2 kg); it is normal for a little water to leak out. Remove the funnel, wipe away any salt residue from the thread and screw the cap on tightly, so that detergent does not leak into the dispenser during the wash cycle (this could damage the water softening system beyond repair). When salt has been added, run a wash cycle immediately, without crockery, in order to remove any salt solution that has leaked out and to avoid corrosion. Adjusting the amount of salt* It is possible to adjust the amount of salt used according to the hardness of the water in your area (this information is available from your local water board). Turn the arrow on the neck of the dispenser (see figure) towards the + or symbols, using the table below as a guide. Adjusting the amount of rinse aid If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you may adjust the quantity of rinse aid used. Use a screwdriver to turn the dosage adjuster to one of the 6 pre-set positions (the default position is set to 4): • if there are white streaks on the crockery, set the adjuster to a lower number (1-3). €¢ if drops of water remain on the crockery or there are limescale marks present after the cycle has finished, set the adjuster to a higher number (4-6). If you are using multi-functional tablets and you wish to further improve the drying performance of the appliance, fill the dispenser and set the dosage adjuster to 2. - If using multi-functional tablets fill the salt dispenser and set the adjuster to -; if the hardness of the water is greater than 60°fH, set it to +. Loading the refined salt In order to obtain the best possible results from a wash cycle, make sure that the dispenser is never empty. Refined salt removes limescale from the water, thus avoiding the formation of deposits on crockery. The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (see Description) and should be filled: • when the green float* cannot be seen by simply looking at the cap of the salt dispenser; • when the LOW SALT* indicator light on the panel flashes; * Only available in selected models. [. . . ] • The racks are overloaded (see Loading the racks ). ╠The crockery has not been arranged well. • The sprayer arms cannot move freely. • The wash cycle is too gentle (see Wash cycles).
