If the "super" programme is selected, as well as the usual dose of detergent, an extra amount will have to be added to the adjacent cavity which is also below the lid. IMPORTANT: use only detergents specifically intended for dishwashers. The use of good detergents is important in obtaining the best washing results. If insufficient detergent is added, the dirt will not be completely eliminated, while excessive detergent does not increase the effectiveness of the wash, and may cause foam and pollution.

Water Softener 8 The dishwasher is equipped with an automatic softener which uses regenerating salts specially developed for dishwashers to remove hardening substances from the water. Hard water leaves whitish marks on the dry dishes, and dishes gradually lose their shine over time. The appliance is preset to dispense the right amount of salt on the basis of the hardness of the mains water. The appliance leaves the factory with a medium setting (2). IMPORTANT NOTE: users are asked to take great care to close the salt container carefully after filling. It is important that detergent, or water containing it, should not enter the salt container, since this would impair operation of the regeneration system. In this case, the warranty would no longer apply. Filling with salt Use only regenerating salt for household dishwashers. If salt pastilles are used, do not fill container completely. There is a container on the bottom of the dishwasher into which the regeneration salt has to be poured. After taking out the bottom basket, unscrew the cap off by turning it anti-clockwise and pour in the salt using the funnel supplied with the dishwasher.
