[. . . ] OPTION SELECTION Options are selected by pressing the relative button by the symbol of the option required; the light comes on to confirm that the option has been activated.  It is not possible to select any options when the soak program is being used.  All options except "Flexi Tabs" are disabled at the end of the wash cycle. To disable the “Flexi Tabs” option, press the relative button (the light goes out).  All options, including " Flexi Tabs " are disabled when a program is CANCELLED after it has begun. 20 User instructions Flexi Tabs Ideal for multi-function detergents, this option allows washing to be optimised, with full benefits from the combined-action tablets. When this option is activated, any salt and rinse aid in the relative containers will not be used. If the option is not provided, we recommend the use of conventional products (separate detergent, salt and rinse aid), because with conventional washing cycles, combined products might create problems such as a white deposit, poor drying results and residues left on dishes. N. B. : When the salt and rinse aid containers are empty, the relative lights will remain on even if the “Flexi Tabs” option is selected. IMPORTANT: when no longer required, the option must be deactivated by pressing the relative button (the light goes out). If the water hardness has been set on a value above H3, and the “Flexi Tabs” option is activated, the relative light flashes, warning of a setting error. Multi-function 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. The dishwasher is factory set for water hardness level 3 (average hardness). 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. Some models are equipped with an optical no-salt indicator. In these models, the cap of the salt container contains a green float which descends as the salt concentration in the water drps. When the green float can no longer be seen through the transparent cap, the container must be topped up with regenerating salt. 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. The mixture of water and detergent must never penetrate the salt container, as this would compromise the operation of the regeneration system. [. . . ] The system is tripped in case of water leaks. Safety level The system which limits the water level inside the dishwasher has been tripped. Interrupt the program and switch off the dishwasher. Switch the dishwasher back on, program it again and start the washing cycle. [. . . ]
