Filling the rinse aid container
The rinse aid, which is automatically
released during the last rinsing cycle, helps
the dishes to dry quickly and prevents
spots and stains forming.
The rinse aid container can be found to the
left of the detergent container (fig. A "3").
To open the lid, push the reference mark
and, in the same time, pull the tab of
opening.
It is always advisable to use rinse aid that
is specifically designed for dishwasher.
Check the rinse aid level through the
indicator eye (C) which is located on the
dispenser.
Regulating the rinse aid from 1 to 6
The regulator (D) is placed under the lid
and can be turned using a coin.
The recommended position is 4.
The limestone content of the water
considerably affects the formation of
limescale and the drying performance.
It is therefore important to regulate the
quantity of rinse aid to achieve good
washing results.
If, after the wash, streaks occur on the
dishes, decrease the amount by one
position. If whitish spots occur, increase the
amount by one position.
■ the effectiveness of detergents containing
the built in water softener/salt depends
on the hardness of your water supply.
Check that the hardness of your water
supply is within the effective range given
on the detergent packaging.
In certain circumstances use of combined
detergents can cause:
■ limescale deposits on dishes or in the
dishwasher;
■ a reduction in washing and drying
performance.
Should this occur, we would recommend
using traditional separate products – salt,
detergent and rinse agent. This will ensure
that the water softener in the dishwasher
operates correctly.
Please note that on return to the use of
conventional salt, a number of cycles will
be required before the system becomes
fully efficient again.
IMPORTANT
Any problems which arise as a direct
result of the use of these products
are not covered by our warranty.

LOADING THE DETERGENT
AND THE RINSE AID
Filling the detergent container
IMPORTANT
It is essential to use a detergent
that is specifically designed for
dishwashers either in powder, liquid
or tablet form.
“FINISH” gives very good results and can
be easily obtained.
Unsuitable detergents (like those for
washing up by hand) do not contain the
proper ingredients for use in a dishwasher,
and stop the dishwasher from working
correctly.
Normal wash
The detergent container is inside the door
(fig. A “2”). If the lid of the container is
closed, press the button (A) to open.
At the end of every wash cycle the lid is
always open and ready for the next time
the dishwasher is used.
WARNING!
When loading the lower basket, please
ensure that the plates or others do not
obstruct the detergent dispenser.
The amount of detergent to be used varies
according to how dirty the dishes are and
on the type of dishes to be washed.
We advise using 20:30 g of detergent in the
wash section of detergent compartment (B).

After pouring the detergent into the container,
close the lid, firstly pushing (1) and then
pressing on it (2) until you hear the click.
Since not all detergents are the same the
instructions on the boxes of detergent can
vary. We should just like to remind users
that too little detergent does not clean the
dishes properly whilst too much detergent
will not produce better results and is also a
waste.
IMPORTANT
Do not use an excessive amount of
detergent and help limit damage to
the environment at the same time.
CAUTION!
IMPORTANT NOTE ON THE USE OF
COMBINED DETERGENTS
If you are planning to use combined detergents
i.e. those with built in salt and/or rinse
agent, we would advise the following:
■ read carefully and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions given on the packaging;
■ some combined detergents, particularly
those with built in rinse agent, provide
best results when used with specific
programmes;
