1. This programme offers the most efficient use of water and energy consumption for crock- ery and cutlery with normal soil. This is the standard programme for test institutes. 2) The appliance senses the degree of soil and the quantity of items in the baskets. It auto- matically adjusts the temperature and quantity of water as well as the wash duration. 3) This programme is suitable for washing a load with mixed soil. Place items with heavy soil in the lower basket and with normal soil in the upper basket. The pressure and tempera- ture of the water in the lower basket are higher than in the upper basket. 4) This programme is designed to wash heavily soiled items with high water pressure and at a high temperature. 5) This programme controls the temperature of the water to provide special care for delicate items, glassware in particular. 6) This programme is suitable for washing a load or a half load with fresh or light soil in a short time. 7) With this programme, you can quickly rinse off food remains from the dishes and prevent odours forming in the appliance. Do not use detergent with this programme.

6.2 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. It is important to set the right level of the water softener to assure good washing results.

HINTS AND TIPS

10.1 General
Follow the hints below to ensure optimal cleaning and drying results in daily use and to help you protect the environment.
· Remove larger residues of food from the dishes into the waste bin.
· Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. When needed, select a programme with a prewash phase.
· Always use the whole space of the baskets.
· Make sure that items in the baskets do not touch or cover each other. Only then can the water completely reach and wash the dishes.

ENGLISH 17
Make sure that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser before you start a new programme.
End of the programme
When the programme is complete, the display shows 0:00. All buttons are inactive except for the on/off button. 1. Press the on/off button or wait for the
Auto Off function to automatically deactivate the appliance. If you open the door before the activation of Auto Off, the appliance is automatically deactivated. 2. Close the water tap.
The Auto Off function
This function decreases energy consumption by deactivating automatically the appliance when it is not operating. The function comes into operation: · 5 minutes after the completion of the
programme. · After 5 minutes if the programme has
not started.
· You can use dishwasher detergent, rinse aid and salt separately or you can use the multi-tablets (e.g. ”All in 1”). Follow the instructions on the packaging.
· Select a programme according to the type of load and the degree of soil. ECO offers the most efficient use of water and energy consumption.
10.2 Using salt, rinse aid and detergent
· Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent for dishwasher. Other products can cause damage to the appliance.

18 www.electrolux.com
· In areas with hard and very hard water we recommend to use plain dishwasher detergent (powder, gel, tablets containing no additional agents), rinse aid and salt separately for optimal cleaning and drying results.
· At least once a month run the appliance with the use of appliance cleaner which is particularly suitable for this purpose.
· Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short programmes. To prevent detergent residues on the tableware, we recommend that you use the tablets with long programmes.
· Do not use more than the correct quantity of detergent. Refer to the instructions on the detergent packaging.
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 not load the baskets.
4. When the programme is completed, adjust the water softener according to the water hardness in your area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse aid.
6. Activate the rinse aid empty notification.
10.4 Loading 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.
· Do not wash in the appliance items that can absorb water (sponges, household cloths).

· Remove large food residues from dishes.
· Soak cookware with burnt-on food before washing it in the appliance.

(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. · The correct quantity of detergent is
used.

CAUTION! An incorrect position of the filters can cause bad washing results and damage to the appliance.
11.2 Cleaning the upper spray arm
We recommend to clean the upper spray arm regularly to prevent soil from clogging the holes. Clogged holes can cause unsatisfactory washing results. 1. Pull out the upper basket. 2. To detach the spray arm from the
basket, press the spray arm upwards and simultaneously turn it clockwise.
3. Wash the spray arm under running water. Use a thin pointed tool, e.g. a toothpick, to remove particles of soil from the holes.

4. To install the spray arm back, press the spray arm upwards and simultaneously turn it counterclockwise until it locks into place.
11.3 External cleaning
· Clean the appliance with a moist soft cloth.
· Only use neutral detergents. · Do not use abrasive products,
abrasive cleaning pads or solvents.
11.4 Internal cleaning
· Carefully clean the appliance, including the rubber gasket of the door, with a soft damp cloth.
· To maintain the performance of your appliance, use a cleaning product designed specifically for dishwashers at least once a month. Carefully follow the instructions on the packaging of the product.
