Before using for the first time

Water softener

For good cleaning results, the dish- washer needs to operate with soft wa- ter. Hard water results in the build up of calcium deposits on dishes and in the dishwasher.

If water hardness is above 4 gr/gal

(70 ppm), the water should be soft- ened. This takes place automatically in the integrated water softener.

–The water softener must be filled with dishwasher salt for reactivation.

–The dishwasher must be pro- grammed to correspond to the water hardness in your area.

–Your water company can tell you the highest level of water hardness in your area.

If your tap water is consistently lower than 4 gr/gal (= 70 ppm) do not add dishwasher salt. However, the dish- washer must still be programmed to correspond to the water hardness in your area.

Where water hardness fluctuates e.g. between 8 - 17 gr/gal (140 - 310 ppm), always program the dishwasher to the higher value (in this example 17 gr/gal / 310 ppm)!

If there is a fault it will help the service technician to know the hardness of your tap water.

^Enter the water hardness below: gr/gal (ppm)

Programming and setting the water hardness level

The water hardness of your water sup- ply must be programmed into the dish- washer using the buttons on the control panel.

The water hardness selector in the wash cabinet must also be set to the water hardness in your area.

Programming the water hardness

The programmed water hardness can be checked and adjusted using the buttons on the control panel. The indi- cators will light after each button is pressed (n) on the control panel.

While programming, the water hardness can be cancelled by turning off the dishwasher with the “Off” button.

The water hardness is preset to 1 - 5 gr/gal (20 - 90 ppm).
