[. . . ] To adjust the rinse aid setting, rotate the dispenser cap through a quarter turn in an anticlockwise direction and remove it. Then use a screwdriver to rotate the rinse aid selector to the desired position. The amount of rinse aid must be increased if the washed dishes appear dull or feature circular stains. If, on the other hand, the dishes are sticky or have white streaks, it is necessary to reduce the rinse aid setting. 22 User instructions 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 program with hot prewash is selected (see program table), extra detergent must be placed in the cavity G/H (depending on models). 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. Dishes and objects in copper, tin, zinc or brass: these tend to stain. Aluminium dishes: items made from anodised aluminium may lose their colour. Glass and crystal: in general, glass and crystal objects can be washed in the dishwasher. However, certain types of glass and crystal may become dull and lose their clearness after many washings. Therefore, for these items we recommend using the least aggressive program available. Decorated items: the decorated objects available on the market are generally able to withstand washing in the dishwasher, although the colours may fade after a great many washes. If in doubt as to the fastness of the colours, it is advisable to wash just a few items at a time for approximately one month. 25 User instructions 4. 4 Using the baskets The dishwasher has a capacity of 13 place-settings, including serving dishes. LOWER BASKET The lower basket receives the full force of the lower spray arm, and should therefore be used for the "toughest" items with a heavier degree of soiling. All types and combinations of loads are permitted, provided that the dishes, pots and pans are arranged with all the soiled surfaces exposed to the water jets coming from the bottom. With fixed supports To make the most of the space inside the basket when loading large items, certain models are equipped with tip-up supports for plates in 2 or 4 sections. With tip-up supports BOTTOM BASKET INSERTS Some models are equipped with bottom basket inserts which improve the drying of dishes. The inserts are supplied in the accessories bag; to use them, simply fit them into place as shown. 26 User instructions LOADING THE LOWER BASKET Carefully load flat plates, soup plates, dessert and serving dishes, positioning them vertically. Pots, pans and their covers must be loaded upside down. [. . . ] Bei einer elgenmchtigen Verlngerung des Wasserzufuhrschlauches trgt der Hersteller keine weitere Verantwortlichkelt.
