FIRST TIME USE
FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes and on the
machine’s functional components.
- It is mandatory that the salt reservoir never be empty.
- It is important to set the water hardness.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher and must be filled when the SALT REFILL indicator light in the control panel is lit.
- Remove the lower rack and unscrew the reservoir cap (anticlockwise).
- Position the funnel (see figure) and fill the salt reservoir right up to its edge (approximately 1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak out.
- Only the first time you do this: fill the salt reservoir with water.
- Remove the funnel and wipe any salt residue away from the opening. Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can get into the container during the wash program (this could damage the water softener beyond repair).
Whenever you need to add salt, it is mandatory to complete the procedure
before the beginning of the washing cycle to avoid corrosion.
FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER
Rinse aid makes dish DRYING easier. The rinse aid dispenser A should be
filled when the RINSE AID REFILL indicator light in the control panel is lit.
NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.
FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER
To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device C. Introduce the
detergent into the dry dispenser D only. Place the amount of detergent for
pre-washing directly inside the tub.
Usage of detergent not designed for dishwashers may cause malfunction or
damage to the appliance.
WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, consequently preventing
scale buildup on heater, contributing also to better cleaning efficiency.
This system regenerates itself with salt, therefore it is required to refill
salt container when empty.
Frequency of regeneration depends on water hardness level setting –
regeneration takes place once per 5 Eco cycles with water hardness level set
to 3. Regeneration process starts in final rinse and finishes in drying phase,
be- fore cycle ends.
- Single regeneration consumes: ~3.5L of water;
- Takes up to 5 additional minutes for the cycle;
- Consumes below 0.005kWh of energy.

---|---|---|---|---|---
1.| | Eco 50°- Eco program is suitable to clean normally soiled tableware,
that for this use, it is the most efficient program in terms of its combined
energy and water consumption, and that it is used to assess compliance with
the EU Ecodesign legislation.| | 3:20| 12.0| 1.
2.| | eIntensive 65° – Program recommended for heavily soiled crockery, espe-
cially suitable for pans and saucepans (not to be used for delicate items).| |

3.| | Mixed 55° – Mixed soil. For normally soiled dishes with dried food
residues.| | 2:25| 16.0| 1.
4| | Rapid 30′ 50° – Program to be used for half load of lightly-soiled dishes
with no dried food residues. Does not have drying phase.| _| 0:30| 9.0| 0.60
5.| | Half Load 50° – Ideal for washing a half load of lightly or normally
soiled crockery.| | 1:20| 12.0| 1.10
ECO program data is measured under laboratory conditions according to European
Standard EN 60436:2020.
Note for Test Laboratories:
For information on comparative EN testing conditions, please send an email to
the following address:
dw_test_support@whirlpool.com Pre-
treatment of the dishes is not needed before any of the programs.
*) Values given for programmes other than the eco programme are indicative only. The actual time may vary depending on many factors such as temperature and pressure of the incoming water, room temperature, amount of detergent, quantity and type of load, load balancing, additional selected options and sensor calibration. The sensor calibration can increase program duration up to 20 min.
