Degree of Soiling
| Determines the soiling degree of the dishes and sets the temperature and amount of the washing water as well as the washing time automatically. Suitable for all types of dishes.| It is the most suitable washing programme for daily mixed dishes including plastic items.
While delicate glass items are washed in the upper basket, pans and trays can be washed in the lower basket.
| Suitable for heavily soiled dishes, pots and pans.| Suitable for washing
dishes with normal amount of soil. It is the most efficient program in terms
of combined power and water consumption. This is used for assessing the
compliance with EU’s eco-design directive.| Special programme for gentle
cleaning of delicate glassware.| Daily washing programme for normally soiled
dishes in the fastest way.| Suitable for lightly soiled daily dishes that are
scraped or pre-cleaned.| Suitable for removing the remnants on the soiled
dishes that will be kept waiting in the machine for a few days, and thus, for
preventing the bad odour buildup.

Perform the same hardness level adjustment that you have set on the control
panel also with the regeneration adjustment switch. For example, if you have
adjusted to “3” in the control panel, also set the regeneration adjustment
switch to 3. 
- If the hardness level of the water that you use is above 50°dH or if you are using well water, then it is recommended to use filter and water purification devices.
- If the hardness level of the water that you use is below 7°dH, there is no need to use salt in your dishwasher. In this case, the Salt Indicator light on the control panel of your dishwasher will light continuously.
- If the water hardness is set to level 1, the Salt Indicator will light continuously although it is not necessary to use salt. If you use salt under this condition, salt will not be consumed and the lamp will not illuminate.
- When moving, you will need to set the water hardness level of your dishwasher again according to the information above, depending on the water hardness of the place you have moved to. If the water hardness level of your machine is adjusted previously, your machine will display the most recent hardness level adjustment.
