7.2 The water softener
The water softener removes minerals from the water supply, which would have a
negative effect on the washing results and on the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals, the harder your water is. Water
hardness is measured in equivalent scales.
The water softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water
in your area. Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the
water in your area. Set the right level of the water softener to assure good
washing results.

Regardless of the type of detergent used, set the proper water hardness level

Multi-tabs containing salt are not effective enough to soften hard water.
Regeneration process For the correct water softener operation, the resin of
the softener device needs to
be regenerated regularly. This process is automatic and is the part of the
normal dishwasher operation.
When the prescribed quantity of water (see values in the table) has been used
since the previous regeneration process, a new regeneration process will be
initiated between the final rinse and the programme end.

Water softener level 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Amount of water (l) 250 100 62 47 25 17 10 5 3 3
In case of the high water softener setting, it may occur also in the middle of
the programme, before the rinse (twice during a programme). Regeneration
initiation has no impact on the cycle duration, unless it occurs in the middle
of a programme or at the end of a programme with a short drying phase. In such
cases, the regeneration prolongs the total duration of a programme by
additional 5 minutes.
Subsequently, the rinsing of the water softener that lasts 5 minutes may begin
in the same cycle or at the beginning of the next programme. This activity
increases the total water consumption of a programme by additional 4 litres
and the total energy consumption of a programme by additional 2 Wh. The
rinsing of the softener ends with a complete drain.
Each performed softener rinse (possible more than one in the same cycle) may
prolong the programme duration by another 5 minutes when it occurs at any
point at the beginning or in the middle of a programme.
All the consumption values mentioned in this section are determined in line with the currently applicable standard in laboratory conditions with water hardness 2.5mmol/L (water softener: level 3) according to the regulation: 2019/2022 . The pressure and the temperature of water as well as the variations of the mains supply can change the values.
How to set the water softener level
Make sure the appliance is in user mode.
1. Press .

still flashes.
· The remaining indicators are off.
· The display shows the current
setting: e.g. = level 5.

7.3 The rinse aid level
The rinse aid helps to dry the dishes without streaks and stains. It is
automatically released during the hot rinse phase.
You can set the released quantity of rinse aid between level 1 (minimum
quantity) and level 6 (maximum quantity). Factory setting: level 4.
When the rinse aid chamber is empty, the rinse aid indicator is on, notifying
to refill rinse aid. If the drying results are satisfactory while using multi-
tablets only, you can deactivate the dispenser and the indicator. However, for
the best drying performance, always use rinse aid and keep the rinse aid
indicator active.
To deactivate the rinse aid dispenser and indicator, set the level of rinse
aid to 0.

instructions in the chapter “Care and cleaning”.
10.2 Using salt, rinse aid and detergent
· Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent designed for dishwasher. Other
products can cause damage to the appliance.
· In areas with hard and very hard water, we recommend to use basic dishwasher
detergent (powder, gel, tablets containing no additional agents), rinse aid
and salt separately for optimal cleaning and drying results.
· Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short programmes. To prevent
detergent residues on the tableware, we recommend that you use tablets with
long programmes.
· Always use the correct quantity of detergent. Insufficient dosage of
detergent can result in poor cleaning results and hard-water filming or
spotting on the items. Using too much detergent with soft or softened water
results in detergent residues on the dishes. Adjust the amount of detergent
based on the water hardness. Refer to the instructions on the detergent
packaging.
· Always use the correct quantity of rinse aid. Insufficient dosage of rinse
aid decreases the drying results. Using too much rinse aid results in bluish
layers on the items.
ENGLISH 17
· Make sure that the water softener level is correct. If the level is too
high, the increased quantity of salt in the water might result in rust on
cutlery.
10.3 What to do if you want to stop using multi-tablets
Before you start to use separately detergent, salt and rinse aid, complete the
following steps:
1. Set the highest level of the water softener.
2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid containers are full.
3. Start the shortest programme with a rinsing phase. Do not add detergent
and do put dishes in the baskets.
4. When the programme is complete, adjust the water softener according to the
water hardness in your area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse aid.
10.4 Loading the baskets
· Always use the whole space of the baskets.
· Use the appliance to wash dishwasher-safe items only.
· Do not wash in the appliance items made of wood, horn, aluminium, pewter and
copper as they could crack, warp, get discoloured or pitted.
· Do not wash in the appliance items that can absorb water (sponges, household
cloths).
· Put hollow items (cups, glasses and pans) with the opening facing downwards.
· Make sure that glass items do not touch each other.
· Put light items in the upper basket. Make sure that the items do not move
freely.
· Put cutlery and small items in the cutlery drawer.
· Move the upper basket upwards to accommodate large items in the lower
basket.
· Make sure that the spray arms can move freely before you start a programme.

10.5 Before starting a programme
Before you start the selected programme, make sure that:
· The filters are clean and correctly installed.
· The cap of the salt container is tight. · The spray arms are not clogged. ·
There is enough salt and rinse aid
(unless you use multi-tablets). · The arrangement of the items in the
baskets is correct. · The programme is suitable to the type
of load and the degree of soil.
11. CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING! Before maintenance, deactivate the appliance and disconnect the mains
plug from the main socket.
Dirty filters and clogged spray arms negatively affect the washing results.
Check these elements regularly and, if necessary, clean them.
11.1 Internal cleaning
· Clean the appliance interior with a soft damp cloth.
· Do not use abrasive products, abrasive cleaning pads, sharp tools, strong
chemicals, scourer or solvents.
· Wipe clean the door, including the rubber gasket, once a week.
· To maintain the performance of your appliance, use a cleaning product
designed for dishwashers at least once every two months. Carefully follow the
instructions on the packaging of the product.
· Use the automatic cleaning programme for optimal cleaning results.
· Using short-duration programmes regularly can cause grease and limescale
buildup inside the appliance. Run long-duration programmes at least twice a
month to prevent the buildup.
· The correct quantity of detergent is used.
10.6 Unloading the baskets
1. Let the tableware cool down before you remove it from the appliance. Hot
items can be easily damaged.
2. First remove items from the lower basket, then from the upper basket.
After the programme is completed, water can still remain on the inside
surfaces of the appliance.
11.2 Removal of foreign objects
Check the filters and the sump after each use of the dishwasher. Foreign
objects (e.g. pieces of glass, plastic, bones or toothpicks, etc) decrease the
cleaning performance and can cause damage to the drain pump.
CAUTION! If unable to remove the foreign objects, contact an Authorised
Service Centre.
1. Disassemble the filters system as instructed in this chapter.
2. Remove any foreign objects manually.
3. Reassemble the filters as instructed in this chapter.
