User manual

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 salt
5. fill the rinse aid dispenser.
Setting 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 salts, the harder
your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales,
for example German degrees, French degrees and
PPM (parts per million).
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 dishwasher is factory set at level 4.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener
should be adjusted.
To select a different level proceed as follows:
- Press the On/Off pushbutton on.
- Press the "Eco dry" (Trocknen Aus) and "Cancel"
(Löschen) buttons simultaneously for about 5
seconds. The number "4" corresponding to the
current level appears in the display.
- Press the "Eco dry" (Trocknen Aus) button as
many times as necessary to make the required
level appear in the display. The corresponding
pilot light flashes to indicate that this button must
be pressed. The level increases by 1 each time
the button is pressed.
- 5 seconds after this button has last been
pressed, the dishwasher memorises the level
selected and returns to the programme setting
mode.

Water hardness
If your water is level 0 it is already soft
and therefore there is no need to use salt.
With the setting of the water softener at
level 0 the salt indicator light on the
control panel will always remain off.
Use salt from level 1 upwards.
