FEATURES AND CONTROLS

ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM

The dishwasher is equipped with a device which allows the softener setting to be
EN
varied to suit the hardness of the main water. The hardness is set using the
GRAM SELECTION BUTTON.
To access the setting function, hold the SELECT button down for 15 seconds.
The WATER HARDNESS ADJUSTMENT INDICATOR LIGHT ashes, while the
SELECTED PROGRAM INDICATOR LIGHTS show the current setting. Each press
of the button changes the setting following the sequence in the table below:
Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.
After adjustment or display of the current setting, simply do not touch the button
for a few seconds; the dishwasher will automatically return to standard mode,
ending the adjustment mode.

ENERGY SAVING AND ENVIRONMENTAL RESPECT

• Always try to run the dishwasher fully loaded.
• Do not wash the dishes under a running tap.
• Use the most suitable washing program for each type of load.
• Do not pre-rinse.
• If available, connect the dishwasher to a hot water system with a tempera-
ture of up to 60°C (140°F).
• When possible, skip the drying cycle by opening the door after washing:
the air and the residue heat will dry the dishes to perfection.
REDUCING THE CONSUMPTION OF DETERGENT
The phosphates contained in dishwasher detergents are harmful to the environment.
To avoid using excessive amounts of detergent and to save on electricity:
• Separate the more delicate items from those that are more resistant to aggressive
detergents and high temperatures;
• Do not pour the detergent directly onto the dishes.
