[. . . ] • 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. 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. 18 User instructions 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. • • • • • • When a program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on model). 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 wash results. Once opened, the detergent packs should not be kept for too long, otherwise the detergent will lose 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 wash results. There are various liquid and powder detergents on the market 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 - Enzyme detergents, on the other hand, are also effective at lower temperatures (from 40 to 55° ) and are more easily C biodegradable.
