Pictures are only for reference, different models may be different.

USING YOUR DISHWASHER

Before using your dishwasher:

1. Set the water softener
2.  Loading the salt Into the softener
3. Loading the basket
4.  Fill the detergent dispenser.

Please check the “Water Softener”, if you need to set the water softener.

Loading The Salt Into The Softener

NOTE:
If your model does not have any water softener, you may skip this section.
Always use salt intended for dishwasher use.
The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as explained in the following:

WARNING:

• Only use salt specifically designed for dishwashers use!
  Every other type of salt not specifically designed for dishwasher use, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any damages caused.

• Only fill with salt before running a cycle.
  This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.

Please follow the steps below for adding dishwasher salt:

1.  Remove the lower basket and unscrew the reservoir cap.
2. Place the end of the funnel (if supplied) into the hole and pour in about 1.5 kg of dishwasher salt.
3.  Fill the salt container to its maximum limit with water, It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
4.  After filling the container, screw back the cap tightly.
5. The salt warning light will turn off after the salt container has been filled with salt.
6. Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (We suggest to use a short program). Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salty water. This is out of warranty.

NOTE:

• The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light ( ) in the control panel comes on.
  Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt container is filled.

• If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some models), you can estimate when to fill the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.

• If salt has spilled, run a soak or quick program to remove it.

Recommendations for loading the dishwasher
Scrape off any large amounts of leftover food. Soften remnants of burnt food in pans. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes under running water.
For best performance of the dishwasher, follow these loading guidelines.
(Features and appearance of baskets and cutlery baskets may vary from your model.)

Place objects in the dishwasher in the following way:

• Items such as cups, glasses, pots, pans, etc. must face downwards.
• Curved items, or ones with recesses, should be loaded aslant so that water can run off.
• All utensils are stacked securely and can not tip over.
• All utensils are placed in the way that the spray arms can rotate freely during washing.
• Load hollow items such as cups, glasses, pans etc. With the opening facing downwards so that water cannot collect in the container or a deep base.
• Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie inside one another, or cover each other.
• To avoid damage, glasses should not touch one another.
• The upper basket is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and tea cups.
• Long bladed knives stored in an upright position are a potential hazard!
• Long and sharp items of cutlery such as carving knives must be positioned horizontally in the upper basket.
• Please do not overload your dishwasher. This is important for good results and for reasonable consumption of energy.

NOTE:
Very small items should not be washed in the dishwasher as they could easily fall out of the basket.
Removing the dishes
