Adjusting the Water Softener To prevent the build up of scale on dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft, i.e. low lime content water. For this reason the dishwasher is fitted with a water softener in which tap water from a hardness of 4 °d (German degree) is softened with the aid of special salt. Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in the area where you live.
– If the hardness setting is changed, the LED indicator for the water-softener button will confirm the change by remaining illuminated continuously for 5 seconds and then flashing again. – The number of flashes corresponds to the new hardness setting. – The sequence of flashes is repeated several times after a 5 second pause. 11.Once the hardness setting is correct press the ON/OFF switch. The hardness setting is then saved.
Filling with Special Salt for the Water Softener 1 Use only special salt for dishwashers. Never fill the salt container with any another type of salt (e.g. culinary salt) or dishwasher detergent.

Fill with special salt: • • Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time on the control When the SALT indicator panel is illuminated.
Filling with Rinse Aid Rinse aid ensures that your dishes gleam and are free from spots, and that you glasses are clear. 1 Use only branded rinse aid for dishwashers.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS Installing the Dishwasher • • • • • The dishwasher must be installed on a firm floor and adjusted to ensure that it is stable and level. To compensate for unevenness in the floor and to match the height of the appliance to that of surrounding units extend the threaded feet by unscrewing : – use a screwdriver. For built-in, integrated and fully integrated dishwashers, the rear feet should be adjusted from the front of the appliance using a screwdriver.
Built-In Dishwasher (see enclosed installation instructions) Free-Standing Appliances 1 can be set up as stand-alone without additional installation. If the dishwasher is set up next to a cooker, a heat-insulating, non-flammable plate must be mounted between the dishwasher and the cooker, flush to the top edge of the work surface (depth 57.5 cm). The plate should have aluminium foil on the side facing the cooker.
Connecting the Dishwasher Water Connection The dishwasher is fitted with safety devices that prevent the wash water returning into the drinking water system and comply with the applicable plumbing regulations. • The dishwasher can be connected to cold and hot water supplies up to max. 60 °C. • The dishwasher must not be connected to open hot water appliances or instantaneous water heaters.
3 The following section is only applicable to dishwashers that have a safety valve on the threaded hose fitting for the tap: Water inlet hose with safety valve After connecting the double-walled water inlet hose, the safety valve is next to the tap. Therefore the water inlet hose is only under pressure while the water is running. If the water inlet hose starts to leak during this operation, the safety valve cuts off the running water and the draining pump in the dishwasher is switched on.
Water drain Drain hose The drain hose must not be kinked, crushed or entangled. Connecting the drain hose: – Maximum permitted height: 1 metre. – Minimum required height 40 cm above the lower edge of the machine. 1 • Extension hoses • • Extension hoses are available from your dealer or customer service. The internal diameter of the extension hoses must be 19 mm to ensure that the function of the appliance is not impeded.
Electrical Connection Any electrical work required to install this appliance should be carried out by a qualified electrician or competent person. 1 WARNING - This appliance must be earthed. The manufacturer declines any responsibility should these safety measures not be observed. Before switching on make sure the electricity supply voltage is the same as that indicated on the appliance rating plate. To isolate the dishwasher from the mains, remove the mains plug.
Connections The water inlet and drain hoses, as well as the mains cable must be connected beside the dishwasher because there is no space for them behind the appliance. The example plumbing and electrical installation given below can only be regarded as a recommendation; the actual situation where the dishwasher is to be installed will define the exact installation (available connections, local electricity and water board regulations for connecting up appliances, etc.).
