are varied during the wash cycle to achieve better cleaning of the

dishwashing cycle.

Prior to using for the first time
Before using your dishwasher for the first time:
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the
installation instructions
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with
dishwasher salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
Note:
If you want to use the "3 in 1" combi detergents, carefully read
the information given in "Different kinds of detergents".
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 hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees,
French degrees and mmol/l (millimol per litre).
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 both ways: manually, using the water
hardness dial and electronically, using the function buttons on the
control panel.
