D ISHWASHER
Before Using your Dishwasher
Adjusting the water softener.
Your dishwasher can adjust its salt con-
sumption according to the hardness of
the water in your home. This way, you
can optimise and customise your dish-
washer's salt consumption.
To adjust salt consumption, do as
follows:
1. Unscrew the salt container cap
2. There is an arrow on the neck of the
container (see figure): if necessary,
turn the arrow anti-clockwise from
the "-" setting to the "+" setting.
Select the arrow position depending on
the water hardness, referring to the table.
To prevent rust from
forming, load the salt
just before beginning a
wash cycle.

Filling the salt container.
Always use salt which is intended for
dishwasher use.
The salt container is situated underneath
the lower basket, fill it up as follows:
1.Pull out the lower basket completely,
unscrew and remove the container
cap
2. If it is the first time you add the salt,
first fill the container up with water
(you won't have to do this again next
time)
3. Put the dishwasher funnel on the hole
and pour in approximately two kilos
of salt. It is normal that some water
comes out of the container.
4. Screw the cap back in place carefully.
Low Salt indicator
This green device is located at the cen-
tre of the cap for the decalcification car-
tridge and it indicates whether the con-
tainer is full.
When the indicator is not visible it means
that you need to add salt.

You don't know how hard
the water in your home
is? Ask the company that
supplies water in your
area.
