WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
VALUES
(Default - in bold)
Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, consequently pre-
venting scale buildup on the heater, contributing also to better clean-
ing efficiency. This system regenerates itself with salt, therefore it is
required to refill the salt container when empty. The frequency of re-
generation depends on the water hardness level setting - regeneration
takes place once per 4-6 Eco cycles with the water hardness level set to 3.
The regeneration process occurs at the beginning of the cycle with addi-
tional fresh water.

FILLING THE SALT RESERVOIR
The use of salt prevents the formation of LIMESCALE on the dishes and on
the machine’s functional components.
The salt reservoir is located in the lower part of the dishwasher (under the
lower rack on the left side).
2. Pour in the rinse aid (max.110
ml), making sure it does not
overflow from the dispenser.
If this happens, clean the spill
immediately with a dry cloth.

NEVER pour the rinse aid directly into the appliance tub..
Adjusting the dosage of rinse aid
If you are not completely satisfied with the drying results, you can adjust
the quantity of rinse aid used.
1. Remove the lower rack and unscrew the reservoir cap
(anticlockwise).
2. Position the funnel (see figure) and fill the salt reservoir To change, follow instructions in the section “SETTING MENU”.
If the rinse aid level is set to ZERO, no rinse aid will be supplied. The LOW
RINSE AID indicator light will not be lit if you run out of rinse aid.
A maximum of 6 levels can be set according to the dishwasher model.
• If you see bluish streaks on the dishes, set a low number (0-3).
• If there are drops of water or limescale marks on the dishes, set
a mid-range number (4-5).
right up to its edge (approximately 0,5 kg); it is not un-
usual for a little water to leak out.
3. Only the first time you do this: fill the salt reservoir
with water.
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).
Run a program every time as soon as you completed refilling the salt
reservoir to avoid corrosion.
FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER
To open the detergent dispenser use the opening device C. Introduce
the detergent into the dry dispenser D only. Place the amount of
detergent for pre-washing directly inside the tub.
1. When measuring out the detergent refer to the
mentioned earlier information to add the proper
quantity. Inside the dispenser D, there are indica-
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 infor-
mation can be obtained from your local water supplier. The factory setting is“3”.
See „WATER HARDNESS TABLE”.

2. Remove detergent residues from the edges of the
dispenser and close the cover until it clicks.
To change, follow instructions in section“SETTING MENU”.
Only use salt that has been specifically designed for dishwashers.
After the salt has been poured into the machine, the SALT REFILL indicator
light switches off.
If the salt container is not filled, the water softener and the heating
element may be damaged as a result of limescale accumulation.
Use of salt is recommended with any type of dishwasher detergent.
3. Close the lid of the detergent dispenser by pulling
it up until the closing device is secured in place.
The detergent dispenser automatically opens up at the right time accord-
ing to the program.

Hotpoint HDA2100HCC Dishwasher Overview
Summary of Contents
- Page 1: Daily Reference Guide Before using the appliance carefully read safety and installation instructions. Thank you for buying a Hotpoint product. After installation, please remember to remove all transport protection parts from the dishwasher. Control panel includes various buttons for program selection and indicators for salt and rinse aid levels. First time use involves switching on the appliance and accessing the settings menu. Water softening system automatically reduces water hardness, preventing scale buildup and improving cleaning efficiency. Rinse aid makes dish drying easier and should be filled when the rinse aid refill indicator light is lit. It is mandatory that the salt reservoir never be empty, and it is important to set the water hardness. Adjusting the dosage of rinse aid can improve drying results based on observed dish conditions. To open the detergent dispenser, use the opening device and introduce detergent into the dry dispenser only.
- Page 2: Check that the dishwasher is connected to the water supply and that the tap is open. If a wrong program was selected, it is possible to change it, provided that it has only just begun. Start the cycle by pressing the START/Pause button. Select the most appropriate program in accordance with the type of crockery and its soiling level. Without switching off the machine, open the door slightly to avoid water splashing out and place the crockery inside the dishwasher. The end of the wash cycle is indicated by sound and the display shows END. Before loading the baskets, remove all food residues from the crockery and empty the glasses. Manual pre-rinsing of tableware items leads to increased water and energy consumption and is not recommended. To avoid odour and sediment which can be accumulated in the dishwasher, please run a high-temperature program at least once a month. If the appliance is placed in surroundings exposed to the risk of frost, it must be drained completely.

- Page 4: Capacity: 15 standard place-settings The third rack was designed to house the cutlery. The side foldable flaps can be folded or unfolded to optimize the arrangement of crockery inside the rack. Arrange the cutlery as shown in the figure for easier collection after washing. Knives and other utensils with sharp edges must be positioned with the blades facing downwards. The lower rack has tip-up supports for arranging plates or loading pans and salad bowls easily. Load delicate and light dishes in the upper rack. The height of the upper rack can be adjusted to create more space upwards. 3D Zone Wash uses additional water jets to wash heavily soiled items more intensively. Regularly clean the filter assembly to prevent clogging and ensure proper water flow.
- Page 5: Daily Reference Guide Cleaning the spray arms Food residue may become encrusted onto the spray arms and block the holes used to spray the water. It is recommended to check the arms and clean them with a small non-metallic brush. Troubleshooting In case your dishwasher doesn’t work properly, check if the problem can be solved by going through the following list. Salt indicator is lit Refill the reservoir with salt. Check the water hardness setting if necessary. Rinse aid indicator is lit or blinking Rinse aid dispenser is empty. Refill the dispenser with a rinse aid. Descale indicator is lit or blinking Descale the appliance immediately using the Self Clean program and a commercially available descaling product. The dishwasher won’t start or does not respond to commands The appliance has not been plugged in properly. Insert the plug into the socket. The control panel does not respond or F6 E1 is displayed Clean the filter and descale the appliance. The dishwasher won’t drain Check the drain hose. Clean the sink drain pipe. The dishwasher makes excessive noise An excessive amount of foam is present. Arrange the crockery correctly. The dishes are not clean The filter is clogged with food residues or limescale. Clean the filter and descale the appliance.
- Page 6: Problems possible causes and solutions are outlined for dishwasher issues. The dishwasher does not fill with water due to no water supply or a closed tap. Check the inlet hose for kinks and ensure it is not clogged. The dishwasher finishes the cycle prematurely if the drain hose is positioned too low. Ensure the detergent is measured correctly and suitable for dishwashers. Check for air leaks in the water supply and refill the rinse aid dispenser. Dishes may not dry well if unloaded too early or if they are sitting too flat. Verify if the selected program includes a drying phase for better results. Blue streaks on dishes may indicate excessive rinse aid dosage or an empty salt reservoir. Check the water hardness setting and ensure the salt reservoir cap is properly closed. A blocked or faulty valve may require service intervention.
