Water softenng system
C
Your dishwasher requires soft
water. If the hardness of the
water is above 6°dH, the water
must be softened and descaled.
Otherwise, ions that create
the hardness will accumulate
on the surfaces of the dishes
and may adversely affect the
washing, shining and drying
performances of the product.
The product is equipped with a water
softening system which reduces the
hardness of incoming water. This system
softens the supply water that enters
into the product to a level that will allow
washing the dishes with the required
quality.
Adjustng the water
softenng system
Cleaning, rinsing and drying performance of
your dishwasher will increase when water
softening system is adjusted properly.
Adjust the new water hardness level
according to the Water hardness level
instruction in this booklet.
Use the test strip supplied with the product

dishwasher. If this is the case, “No Salt Warning Indicator” (if any) illuminates continuously on
the panel of your machine.
If the water hardness level adjustment is set to level 1, the “No salt warning indicator” will
illuminate continuously although it is not necessary to use salt. If you use salt under this
condition, salt will not be consumed and the Salt indicator will not illuminate.
14 Dishwasher / User’s Manual/42 EN
Preparation
C
Salt reservoir will fill with water
when you start the product.
Therefore, add the softening
salt before starting the
machine.
C
Before initial use, fill the water
softening system with 1 litre of
water (C).
C
If you move your house, it is
necessary to readjust water
hardness level of your machine
by considering the information
given above according to the
hardness level of the supply
water in your new location.
Your machine will display the
most recently adjusted water
hardness level.
Addng salt
Water softening system needs to be
regenerated in order that the product
operates with the same performance
continuously. Dishwasher salt is used for
this purpose.
C
Use only special softening salts
produced particularly for the
dishwashers in your machine.
C
We recommend using granular
or powder softening salts. Do
not use salts that are insoluble
in water such as table salt or
common salt. Performance of
water softening system may get
worse in time.
C
Salt reservoir will fill with water
when you start the product.
Therefore, add the softening
salt before starting the
machine.
1. First take the lower basket out to add
softening salt.
2. Turn the salt reservoir lid counter
clockwise to open it (A, B).
Dishwasher / User’s Manual 15 / 42 EN
Preparation
Detergent
You can use powder, liquid/gel and tablet
detergents in the machine.
C
Only use the detergents
produced particularly for use
with dishwashers. Never
use washing up liquids. We
recommend you not to use
detergents that contain chlorine
and phosphate as they are
harmful for the environment.
Addng detergent
C
Refer to the “Programme
Table” to determine the correct
amount of detergent for the
selected programme.
C
In order to have good washing
and drying results, always
follow the instructions on the
detergent packaging. If you
have further questions, we
recommend to contact with the
producer of the detergent.
A
Do not put solvents into the
detergent dispenser. There is
risk of explosion!
Put the detergent into the detergent
dispenser just before operating the
machine as illustrated below.
3. Fill the salt reservoir with salt by using
salt funnel (D). To speed up dissolution
rate of salt in water, stir it with a spoon.
C
You can put about 2 kg of
dishwasher salt into the salt
reservoir.
4. Replace the lid and tighten it securely
when the reservoir is full.
5. If you will not start a washing
programme immediately after adding
the salt, run the machine empty in the
shortest programme to dissolve and
wash away the scattered salt in the
machine.
C
Since different salt brands in the
market have different particle
sizes and since the water
hardness may vary, dissolution
of the salt in water may take
a couple of hours. Therefore,
Salt Indicator remains on for a
while after adding salt into the
machine.
Loose salt grains can cause rust
marks in your machine if not
rinsed away. Only fill salt just
before a programme is run.
16 Dishwasher / User’s Manual/42 EN
Preparation
pressing on it lightly. A “click” will be
heard when the lid is closed.
C
In programmes with prewash
and high temperature, in which
you use tablet detergents,
make sure that the detergent
dispenser lid is closed firmly.
C
Use powder detergent in short
programmes without prewash
since the solubility of the tablet
detergent changes depending
on the temperature and time.
A
Excessive usage of powder
detergents will cause the
detergent not dissolve
completely and will also cause
scratches on the glassware.
Combned tablet detergents
Combined tablet detergents exhibit water
softening and / or rinse aid effect in
addition to detergent effect. Some types
of these detergents also contain special-
purpose washing chemicals such as glass
and stainless steel protectors.
Combined tablet detergents are available
as 3in1, 5in1, Allin1 etc. They function
only up to a specific degree of water
hardness. Above this limit regeneration
salt and rinse aid must be added. Refer to
the instructions on the packaging of the
combined detergent whether it is suitable
for the hardness level of the water supply.
1. Push the latch to right to open the
detergent dispenser lid (A).
2. Put suggested amount of powder,
liquid/gel or tablet detergent in the
dispenser.
C
Inside the detergent dispenser,
there are level markings that
help you use appropriate
amount of detergent. When
brimful, detergent dispenser will
contain 40 cm³ of detergent.
Fill detergent up to 15 cm³ or 25
cm³ level marks in the detergent
dispenser according to fullness
of the machine and/or soiling
degree of the dishes (1).
C
If dishes have been waiting
for a long time and have
dried residues, fill the 5 cm³
compartment too (2).
3. Close the detergent dispenser lid by
Dishwasher / User’s Manual 17 / 42 EN
Preparation
C
While using combined tablet
detergents contact with
the detergent producers if
the dishes are wet and/or if
you notice limescale spots
particularly on glasses after the
washing programme is over.
C
The best washing performance
in dishwashers is obtained by
using detergent, rinse aid and
water softening salt individually.
When you switch to powder, liquid/gel or
tablet detergent from a combined tablet
detergent:
1. Make sure that salt and rinse aid
reservoirs are full.
2. Set the water hardness to the highest
level and perform an empty run.
3. After the empty washing cycle, review
the user manual and readjust the water
hardness level so as to suit the water
supply.
4. Make the appropriate rinse aid settings.
C
Depending on the model,
salt indicator and/or rinse aid
indicator must be enabled again
if they were disabled before.
Rnse ad
C
The rinse aid used in
dishwashers is a special
combination used to increase
drying efficiency and prevent
water or limescale stains on the
washed items. For this reason,
care must be paid to have rinse

Placing the dishes into the
dishwasher
You can use your dishwasher in the
optimum way with respect to energy
consumption and washing and drying
performance only if you place the dishes in
an orderly way.
•Wipe away any coarse food remnants
(bones, seeds, etc.) on the dishes
before placing them in the dishwasher.
•Place thin, narrow pieces in the middle
sections of baskets if possible.
•There are two separate baskets in
which you can place your dishes in the
dishwasher. Place the heavily soiled
and bigger items in the lower basket
and smaller, delicate and light items in
the upper basket.
•Place the hollowed dishes such as
bowls, glasses and pans upside down
in the dishwasher. Thus, accumulation
of water in deep hollows is prevented.
A
To prevent possible injuries,
always place the sharp and
pointed dishes such as service
fork, bread knife, etc. upside
down so as their pointed ends
will face down or they will lie
horizontally in the dish basket.
Unload dishes in the lower basket first and
then the dishes in the upper basket.
