D ISHWASHER
Warning
Three-in-one dishwasher tablets are now available on the market, and combine detergent, salt and rinse aid all in one.
If the water in your area is hard or very hard, we still recommend you pour extra salt into the relevant dispenser to prevent
the formation of white streaks on your dishes or on the interior of the appliance.
Using a three-in-one product means it is no longer necessary to put rinse aid into the relevant container.
If you want to achieve perfectly dry dishes, you may add rinse aid as long as the dosage adjuster is set to no.2.
In any case, please read the manufacturer's instructions on the packet.
If you use only these products, it is normal for the salt and rinse aid indicator lights to flash permanently after a certain
number of cycles.
Rinse aid.
Rinse aid makes dishes sparkle
more as it improves their drying. The
rinse aid container is situated on the
inside of the door.
You should fill the rinse aid container
when indicator D lights up on the
container (see right) and the rinse
aid indicator light
"T" on the control
panel flashes.
Adding rinse aid.
To open the dispenser, turn cap C
anticlockwise. Take care when you
pour in the rinse aid to avoid it
overflowing. You can regulate the
amount of rinse aid used by the
dishwasher, move the adjuster F
