7. HINTS AND TIPS

7.1 The water softener

Hard water contains a high quantity of
minerals that can cause damage to the
appliance and bad washing results. The
water softener neutralises these minerals.
The dishwasher salt keeps the water soft-
ener clean and in good conditions. It is
important to set the right level of the water
softener. This makes sure that the water
softener uses the correct quantity of dish-
washer salt and water.

7.2 Using salt, rinse aid and
detergent

• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent

for dishwasher. Other products can
cause damage to the appliance.

• The rinse aid helps, during the last rins-

ing phase, to dry the dishes without
streaks and stains.

• Combi detergent tablets contain deter-

gent, rinse aid and other added agents.
Be sure that these tablets are applica-
ble to the water hardness in your area.
Refer to the instructions on the packag-
ing of the products.

• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve

with short programmes. To prevent de-
tergent 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.

7.3 Loading the baskets

Refer to the supplied leaflet with
examples of the load of the bas-
kets.

• Only use the appliance to wash items

that are dishwasher-safe.

• Do not put in the appliance items made

of wood, horn, aluminium, pewter and
copper.

• Do not put in the appliance items that

can absorb water (sponges, household
cloths).

• Remove remaining food from the items.
• To remove easily remaining burned

food, soak pots and pans in water be-
fore you put them in the appliance.

• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and

pans) with the opening down.

• Make sure that cutlery and dishes do

not bond together. Mix spoons with
other cutlery.

• Make sure that glasses do not touch

other glasses.

• Put the small items in the cutlery bas-

ket.

• Put the light items in the upper basket.

Make sure that they do not move.

• Make sure that the spray arms can

move freely before you start a pro-
gramme.

7.4 Before starting a
programme

Make sure that:
• The filters are clean and correctly instal-

led.

• The spray arms are not clogged.
• The position of the items in the baskets

is correct.

• The programme is applicable for the

type of load and for the degree of soil.

• The correct quantity of detergent is

used.

• There is dishwasher salt and rinse aid

(unless you use combi detergent tab-
lets).

• The cap of the salt container is tight.
