First Time Use - Franke FDW 614 D10P DOS LP C Bedienungsanleitung

FIRST TIME USE

After installation, remove the stoppers from the racks and the retaining elastic elements from the upper rack.
FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes
and on the machine's functional components.
• It is mandatory that THE SALT RESERVOIR NEVER BE EMPTY.
• It is important to set the water hardness.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher
(see PRODUCT DESCRIPTION) and must be filled when the SALT REFILL
indicator light
in the control panel is lit.
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the
reservoir cap (anticlockwise).
2. Only the first time you do this: fill the salt
reservoir with water.
3. Position the funnel (see figure) and fill the salt
reservoir right up to its edge (approximately
1 kg); it is not unusual for a little water to leak
out.
4. Remove the funnel and wipe any salt
residue away from the opening.
Make sure the cap is screwed on tightly, so that no detergent can
get into the container during the wash program (this could damage
the water softener beyond repair).
Whenever you need to add salt, it is mandatory to complete
the procedure before the beginning of the washing cycle to avoid
corrosion.

SETTING THE WATER HARDNESS
To allow the water softener to work in a perfect way, it is essential
that the water hardness setting is based on the actual water hardness
in your house. This information can be obtained from your local water
supplier.
FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER

be filled when the RINSE AID REFILL
panel is lit.
