washed with soft water, i.e. water with a low lime content. The water softener

live. Your local water company will be able to give you information about the

water hardness in your area.

The dishwasher must be switched off.

Setting manually:

1. Open the dishwasher door.

2. Remove the lower basket from the

dishwasher.

3. Turn water hardness dial on the left wall of

the dishwasher interior to 1 or 2 (see table).

2. Press function buttons 2and 3simultaneously and keep them pressed.

(Exception: hardness setting 1 follows hardness setting 10).

5. When the hardness setting is correct, press the ON/OFF button.

The hardness setting is now saved.

Adding special salt

To decalcify the water softener, it must be filled up with special salt. Use only

special salt suitable for domestic dishwashers.

If you do not use 3 in1 detergent, fill up with special salt:

–Before using the dishwasher for the first time.

–When the control indicator for special salt is illuminated on the control panel.

1. Open the door and remove the lower

basket.

2. Screw open the lid on the salt dispenser by

turning it anticlockwise.

3. Only when using the dishwasher for the

first time:

Fill the salt dispenser with water.

4. Place the funnel (supplied) over the dis

penser opening.

Fill the dispenser with special salt; the ca

pacity of the dispenser is approx. 1.01.5

kg, depending on the size of the grains. Do

not overfill the dispenser.

3If water overflows when filling up with special salt, this is completely harmless.

5. Clean away any salt remnants from the dispenser opening.

6. Screw the lid back on in a clockwise direction.

7. Run a dishwashing cycle after filling the salt dispenser with special salt.

This will wash away salt water and salt crystals that have been spilt.

3Depending on the size of the salt grains, it can take several hours for the salt to

dissolve in the water and for the control indicator for special salt to go out.
