Setting the water softener

The dishwasher is equipped with a water

softener designed to remove minerals and

salts from the water supply, which would

have a detrimental or adverse effect on the

operation of the appliance.

The higher the content of these minerals and

salts, the harder your water is. Water hard-

ness is measured in equivalent scales, Ger-

man degrees (dH°), French degrees (°TH)

and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international

unit for the hardness of water).

The softener should be adjusted according

to the hardness of the water in your area.

Your local Water Authority can advise you on

the hardness of the water in your area.

The water softener must be set in two

ways: manually, using the water hard-

ness dial and electronically.

washer.

3. Turn the water hardness dial to position

1 or 2 (see chart).

4. Replace the lower basket.

Setting electronically

The appliance is factory set at level 5.

1. Switch on the appliance. It must be in

setting mode.

2. Press and hold, at the same time, the

function buttons B and C. The pro-

gramme indicator lights above function

appliance.

Use of dishwasher salt

Warning!

Only use salt specifically designed for use in

dishwashers. All other types of salt not spe-

cifically designed for use in a dishwasher, es-

pecially table salt, will damage the water soft-

ener. Only fill with salt just before starting one

of the complete washing programmes. This

will prevent any grains of salt or salty water,

which may have been spilt, remaining on the

bottom of the machine for any period of time,

which may cause corrosion.

To fill:

1. Open the door, remove the lower basket

and unscrew the cap of the salt container

by turning it anticlockwise.

2. Pour 1 litre of water into the container

(this is necessary only before filling

with salt for the first time) .

3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt

until the container is full.

4. Replace the cap making sure that there

is no trace of salt on the screw thread or

on the gasket.

5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clock-

wise until it stops with a click.

Do not worry if water overflows from the

unit when filling with salt, this is quite

normal.

The salt indicator light can remain

on for a few hours after the salt has

been replenished. If you are using

salt that takes longer to dissolve

then this can take longer. The oper-

ation of the appliance is not affec-

ted.

Use of rinse aid

Warning! Only use branded rinse aid for

dishwashers.

Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with any

other substances (e.g. dishwasher

cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This

would damage the appliance.

Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, and

spot and streak free drying.

Rinse aid is automatically added during

the last rinse.

1. Open the container by pressing the re-

lease button (A).

electrolux 7

2. Add the rinse aid in the container. The

maximum level for filling is indicated by

"max".

The dispenser holds about 110 ml of rinse

aid, which is sufficient for between 16 and

40 washing cycles, depending upon the

dosage setting.

3. Ensure that the lid is closed after every

refill.

Clean up any rinse aid spilt during filling

with an absorbent cloth to avoid excess

foaming during the next wash.

According to the finish and drying results ob-

tained, adjust the dose of rinse aid by means

of the 6 position selector (position 1 minimum

dosage, position 6 maximum dosage).

The dose is factory set in position 4.

Increase the dose if there are drops of water

or lime spots on the dishes after washing.

Reduce it if there are sticky whitish streaks

on the dishes or a bluish film on glassware or

knife blades.

Daily use

• Check if it’s necessary to refill with dish-

washer salt or rinse aid.

• Load cutlery and dishes into the dishwash-

er.

• Fill with dishwasher detergent.

• Select a wash programme suitable for the

cutlery and dishes.

• Start the wash programme.

Helpful hints and tips

Sponges, household cloths and any object

that can absorb water may not be washed in

the dishwasher.

• Before loading the dishes, you should:

– Remove all left over food and debris.

– Soften remnants of burnt food in pans

• When loading the dishes and cutlery,

please note:

– Dishes and cutlery must not impede the

rotation of the spray arms.

– Load hollow items such as cups,

glasses, pans, etc. with the opening

downwards so that water cannot collect

in the container or a deep base.

– Dishes and items of cutlery must not lie

inside one another, or cover each other.

– To avoid damage to glasses, they must

not touch.

– Lay small objects in the cutlery basket.

• Plastic items and pans with non stick coat-

ings have a tendency to retain water

drops; these items will not dry as well as

porcelain and steel items.

• Light items (plastic bowls etc.) must be

loaded in the upper basket and arranged

so they do not move.

For washing in the dishwasher the following cutlery and dishes

are not suitable: are of limited suitability:

• Cutlery with wooden, horn, china or mother-of-

pearls handles.

• Plastic items that are not heat resistant.

• Older cutlery with glued parts that are not tem-

perature resistant.

• Bonded cutlery items or dishes.

• Pewter or copper items.

• Lead crystal glass.

• Steel items prone to rusting.

• Wooden platters.

• Items made from synthetics fibres.

• Only wash stoneware in the dishwasher if it is

specially marked as being dishwasher-safe by

the manufacturer.

• Glazed patterns may fade if machine washed

frequently.

• Silver and aluminium parts have a tendency to

discolour during washing: Residues, e.g. egg

white, egg yolk and mustard often cause dis-

colouring and staining on silver. Therefore al-

ways clean left-overs from silver immediately, if

it is not to be washed straight after use.

Loading cutlery and dishes

The lower basket

The lower basket is designed to take sauce-

pan, lids, plates, salad bowls, cutlery etc.

Service dishes and large lids should be ar-

ranged around the edge of the basket, en-

suring that the spray arms can turn freely.

The rows of prongs in the lower basket can

lie flat to allow you to load pots, pans and

bowls.

The cutlery basket

Long bladed knives stored in an upright

position are a potential hazard. Long

and/or sharp items of cutlery such as

carving knives must be positioned

horizontally in the upper basket. Take

care when loading or unloading sharp

items such as knives.

Forks and spoons should be placed in the

removable cutlery basket with the handles

facing downwards and the knives with their

handles facing upwards.

electrolux 9

If the handles protrude from the bottom of the

basket, obstructing the lower spray arm, load

the cutlery with the handles facing upwards.

Mix spoons with other cutlery to prevent

them from sticking together.

To make loading of the cutlery basket easier,

lower the cutlery basket handle.

For best results we recommend that you use

the cutlery grids.

If the size and dimensions of the cutlery do

not allow the use of the grids, they can be

easily hidden.

The cutlery basket is in two parts which can

be separated to give greater loading flexibili-

ty. To separate the two parts, slide them hor-

izontally in opposite directions and pull them

apart.

To reassemble, reverse the procedure.

The upper basket

The upper basket is designed for saucers,

salad bowls, cups, glasses, pots and lids.

Arrange items on and underneath the cup

racks so that water can reach all surfaces.
