BEFORE WASHING FOR THE FIRST
TIME
DEAR GORENJE+ CUSTOMER!
We hope that you will have many years of use
from your new machine.
The machine has many features. To make the
most of its functions, we recommend that you
read the operating instructions before using the
machine. The operating instructions include
information on how you can help protect the
environment.
PROGRAMME KEY
Some dishwashers include programme keys in
different languages. Attach the programme key
in the desired language to the top of the door.
THE WATER SOFTENER
In order to achieve good dishwashing results, the
dishwasher needs soft water (water with low
mineral content). Hard water leaves a white
coating on dishes and the dishwasher.
Water hardness is specified using the following
scales: The German water hardness scale (°dH)
and the French water hardness scale (°fH). A
water supply with a water hardness in excess of
6°dH (9°fH) must be softened. This is done
automatically with the aid of the built-in water
softener. In order for the softener to function
optimally, it must be adjusted to the hardness of
the water supply.
Contact the local waterworks to check the water
hardness in your area. Once you have adjusted
the water softener, use detergent and rinse aid
doses suitable for soft water.
ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENER
In section Settings on page 16 the process for
setting the water softener is described. Do not
forget to put salt in the salt compartment after
you have set the water softener.

FILL UP THE SALT
Before you begin using a dishwasher with a water
softener, you must fill the salt compartment with
salt. Use large grain salt or special dishwasher salt.
WARNING!
Top up the salt just before running a
programme. To avoid the risk of rust stains, the
dishwasher must be rinsed immediately after
topping up the salt.
Never pour dishwasher detergent into the salt
compartment. This destroys the water softener!
Do as follows the first time:
1 Unscrew the lid as illustrated.
2 Place the funnel supplied with the dishwasher
in the salt compartment top-up hole. First,
pour in about 1 l of water.
3 Then add salt, a maximum of 1.5 kg, until the
compartment is full.
4 Wipe up any excess salt so that the lid can be
screwed on firmly.
5 Run a programme to ensure that any salt in
the dishwasher is rinsed away.

symbol lights on the display.
When the salt runs out, unscrew the cap and fill
the container with salt. Water is only needed the
first time! Wipe clean and tighten. Run a
programme to ensure that any salt in the
dishwasher is rinsed away.
NOTE!
After topping up, it may take a while before the
symbol goes out.
TOP UP WITH RINSE AID
Drying is faster and a better result is achieved if
you use rinse aid. You will also achieve a better
dishwashing result with clear and spotless dishes.
1 Open the rinse aid compartment lid.
2 Carefully top up with rinse aid. Only add rinse
aid to the level marked max.
3 Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the
compartment.
4 Close the lid firmly.
Refill rinse aid indicator
When the rinse aid needs topping up, the above
symbol lights on the display.
NOTE!
After topping up, it may take a while before the
symbol goes out.
SETTING THE RINSE AID DOSAGE
The section Settings describes how to set the rinse
aid dosage. Rinse aid dispensing can be set from
(Off) to (High dose). (Factory
settings: )
Increase the rinse aid dosage:
•If the dishes have water marks.
Decrease the rinse aid dosage:
•If the dishes have a sticky white/blue film.
•If the dishes are streaked.
•Build-up of foam. If you have very soft water,
the rinse aid can be diluted 50:50 with water.
