Scholtes LFDS3XL60HZ Use & Care Manual

Before starting to use the appliance, make sure you have
read and understood all the warnings contained in
chapter 2 "important safety instruction".

Once the dishwasher has been correctly installed,
prepare for use as follows:

•

adjust the water softening system;

•

add the regenerating salt;

•

add the rinse-aid and detergent.

The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are situated on
the inner part of the door: the 

detergent dispenser (ref.

A fig. 4-01) is on the left, and the 

(ref. B fig. 4-01) is on the right.

Fig. 4-01

With the exception of the 

soak program, before every

washing cycle it is necessary to add the required amount
of detergent to the 

detergent dispenser. The rinse aid, on

the other hand, should only be added as required.

The rinse aid helps the dishes dry faster and prevents the
formation of scale deposits and staining; it is automatically
added to the water during the final rinse cycle, from the
container situated on the inner side of the door.

Fig. 4-02

To add rinse aid:

•

Open the door.

•

Rotate the container cover (ref. A fig. 4-02)
anticlockwise by ¼ of a turn and remove it.

•

Add the rinse aid until the container is full
(approximately 140 ml). The optical level indicator (ref.
B fig. 4-02), on the side of the cap should be
completely obscured. Refill the rinse aid when the
optical level indicator becomes clear again, or when
the rinse aid warning light illuminates (see "Description
of controls" manual).

•

Replace the cover (ref. A fig. 4-02) by turning it in a
clockwise direction until it is fully closed.

•

Use a cloth to remove any spillage of rinse aid which
might lead to the formation of excess foam.

The rinse-aid dispenser can be set to one of 6 different
levels. The dishwasher is factory set for medium water
hardness (selector set to "3"). To change the setting, turn
the dispenser selector (ref. c fig. 4-02) to the desired
position: the amount of rinse-aid dispensed is proportional
to the position of this selector.
Make sure that the minimum amount of rinse-aid (selector
turned to "1") is approximately 1 ml and the maximum
amount (selector turned to "6") is approximately 6 ml.

•

To adjust the rinse aid setting, rotate the dispenser
cover (ref. A fig. 4-02) through a quarter turn in an
anticlockwise direction and remove it.

•

Then use a screwdriver to rotate the rinse aid selector
to the desired position.
