Produits de la Marque Whirlpool

Rinse aid and refined salt

Only use products which have been specifically designed

for dishwashers.

Do not use table/industrial salt or washing-up liquid.

Follow the instructions given on the packaging.

If using a multi-functional product it is not necessary to add

any rinse aid. However, we recommend that you add salt,

especially if you live in an area where the water is hard or

very hard.

(Follow the instructions given on the packaging).

If you do not add salt or rinse aid, the LOW SALT* and

LOW RINSE AID

* indicator lights will stay lit.

Measuring out the rinse aid

Rinseaidmakesiteasierforthecrockerytodry,aswaterrunsoff

the surfaces more readily and therefore does not leave streaks

or marks. The rinse aid dispenser should be filled:

• WhentheLOWRINSEAIDindicatorlight* on the control panel

is illuminated, a reserve supply of rinse aid is still available

for1-2cycles;

1.Openthedispenser“D” by pressing and pulling up the tab

on the lid;

2.Carefully introducethe rinse aid as faras the maximum

reference notch of the filling space - avoid spilling it. If this

happens, clean the spill immediately with a dry cloth.

3. Press the lid down until you hear a click to close it.

NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub.

Setting water hardness

Everydishwasherisequippedwithawatersoftenerwhich,by

using refined salt designed specially for this type of appliance,

supplies water without limescale which is then used to wash

the crockery.

This dishwasher has a setting that helps reduce pollution and

optimises washing performance in accordance with the water

hardness level in your area. Ask your local water supplier for

this information.

Measuring out the refined salt

In order to obtain the best possible results from a wash cycle,

make sure that the salt dispenser is never empty.

Refinedsaltremoveslimescalefromthewater,thusavoiding

the formation of deposits on crockery.

The salt dispenser is located in the lower part of the dishwasher

(see Description)

and should be filled:

• Whenthegreenfloat* cannot be seen by simply looking at

the cap of the salt dispenser;

• WhentheLOWRINSEAIDindicatorlightonthecontrolpanel

is illuminated *;

1.Removethelowerrackandunscrewthecap(anticlockwise).

2.Thefirsttimeyoudothis:fillthewatertank

right up to its edge.

3. Position the funnel

(see figure)

and fill the

salt dispenser up to the edge (approximately

1kg).Itisnormalforalittlewatertoleakout.

4.Remove the funnel* and wipe any salt

residues away from the opening; rinse the cap under running

water and then screw it on, the head facing downwards so as to

let the water flow out of the four slots (star-shaped arrangement)

in the lower part of the cap (cap with green float

*).

It is advisable to perform this procedure every time you add

salt to the dispenser.

Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly so that no detergent can

get into the container during the wash cycle (this could damage

the water softener beyond repair).

Whennecessary,measureoutthesaltbeforeawashcycle

so that any saline solution which has leaked out of the salt

dispenser is removed.

* Only available in selected models.
