5/ DETERGENT PRODUCTS AND ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENER
Important:
It is very important to set the water softener correctly.
- If the setting is too low, there is the risk of chalky marks appearing.
- if the setting is too high, there is the risk of causing clouding of the glasses.
If you relocate, adjust the water softener setting as required.
• Traditional tablets
Non-multipurpose tablets should be placed in the external compartment (Fig 04) or, for optimum
performance, pull out the dispenser drawer and lay the tablet inside (Fig 05).
• Powders or liquids (Fig 03)
Fill at least up to the minimum mark for slightly dirty crockery and to the maximum mark for dirty
crockery. If the crockery is very dirty and for programmes with a pre-wash we recommend that you
add 5g of detergent (a dessert spoonful) into your dishwasher’s tub in accordance with the pro-
grammes table.
Important:
Keep these products out of children’s reach and away from dampness.
Only use products specially designed for dishwashers.
