- Pour into the rinse aid dispenser.
Why is water descaling (using special salt) important for the dishwasher?
A dishwasher requires soft water (with low calcium content) to operate efficiently. Otherwise, white residue may remain on the dishes and inside the appliance. This negatively impacts dishwashing, rinsing, and drying quality. The water softener removes hardness ions. It needs to be regenerated using special salt to maintain efficiency.
How do I add special salt to the dishwasher?
Only use special salt intended for dishwashers.
- Remove the lower basket.
- Open the lid of the salt dispenser by turning it counter-clockwise.
- Before the first use only, fill the dispenser with water to the brim.
- Using the supplied funnel, fill the special salt dispenser with approx. 1.5 kg of special salt.
- Replace and close the lid securely.
When should I add the special salt relative to starting a wash programme?
When you start a programme, the special salt dispenser is filled with water. Therefore, you should pour the special salt just before starting the dishwasher. Special salt will be washed away during the dishwashing programme. If you pour the special salt and do not intend to run a dishwashing programme immediately, run the quick programme with an empty dishwasher in order to prevent corrosion.
How can I determine the water hardness?
To check water hardness, contact the municipal water company or determine the water hardness using the test strip (if available).
How do I use the water hardness test strip?
- Open the test strip package.
- Open the water tap for 1 minute.
- Immerse the test strip in the water for 1 second.
- Once removed, shake off the residual water.
- Wait 1 minute.
- Compare the strip to the chart provided on the package to determine the hardness level. Set the dishwasher water hardness accordingly.
What are the different water hardness levels?
The dishwasher uses 6 levels to indicate water hardness:
- Level 1: No Lime
- Level 2: Very low lime content
- Level 3: Low lime content
- Level 4: Medium lime content
- Level 5: Lime content
- Level 6: High lime content
How do I fill the detergent dispenser?
- Press the latch to open the detergent dispenser lid.
- The dispenser has volume markings (lines) to measure the correct amount (max 30g).
- For heavily soiled dishes, pour 25 cm³ detergent into the main wash compartment (b).
- For less soiled dishes, pour 15 cm³ into the main wash compartment (b).
- If dishes remained unwashed for a long time or food has dried, pour 5 cm³ detergent into the pre-wash compartment (a) and start the dishwasher.
What should I consider when using multi-component (multitab) detergents?
- Always check the type of detergent and if it’s a multi-component product.
- Ensure it’s appropriate for your tap water hardness.
- Follow the instructions on the product packaging.
- If using tablets, never place them in the cutlery basket. Always place the tablet in the detergent dispenser compartment.
- These detergents give good results only in certain applications. Contact the manufacturer for proper use information.
- For best results, even when using multi-component products, it is recommended to add special salt and rinse aid to the dishwasher and set the water hardness and rinse aid amount to the lowest setting.
- If results are unsatisfactory (e.g., limescale traces), contact the detergent manufacturer. Warranty does not cover complaints due to multi-component detergents.
- Solubility can vary; tablets are not recommended for quick programmes. Use powder detergents for quick programmes.
- Store detergents in a dry, cool place, out of reach of children. Add detergent immediately before use.
How do I add rinse aid to the dispenser?
- Remove the dispenser lid by unscrewing it.
- Add rinse aid until the level indicator becomes dark.
