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

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, Clarke 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 switch and electronically, using the function push buttons on the control panel.

a) Setting manually

1.Open the dishwasher door.

2.Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.

3. Turn the water hardness switch to position 1 or 2 (see table).

4.Replace the lower basket.

b)Setting electronically

(The dishwasher must be switched off)

The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.

1. Press the On/Off push button. The On/Off indicator light
illuminates (setting mode).
If a programme push button indicator light is on, this
means that a washing programme has been selected. The
programme must be cancelled: press simultaneously the
function push buttons 2 and 3 for about 2 seconds. All the
indicator lights will turn off (except for the On/Off indicator
light and eventually salt and rinse aid indicator lights)
indicating that the setted programme has been cancelled
and the machine is now in setting mode.
2. Press simultaneously function push buttons 2 and 3, until
the indicator lights of the function push buttons 1, 2 and 3
start flashing.
3. Press the function push button 1, the indicator lights of
function push buttons 2 and 3 turn off while the indicator
light of the push button 1 goes on flashing, the digital
display indicates the current level.
Exampel:	= level 5
4. To change the level, press push button 1. Each time the
push button is pressed the level changes. (For the selection
of the new level see the chart).
Examples:
if the current level is 5, by pressing push button 1 once,
level 6 is selected.
if the current level is 10, by pressing push button 1 once,
level 1 is selected.
