ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENER...

●In order to rinse dishes and glasses satisfactorily, the dishwasher requires soft water i.e containing little or no lime, otherwise water stains are left behind on crockery and glasses etc. If the tap water exceeds a certain level of hardness, it must be softened, ie. decalcified, so that it can be used in the dishwasher.

●The water Softener should be properly adjusted to optimise salt consumption and for best washing results.

●In order to ensure that the correct amount of salt is being used to regenerate the water softener, the water hardness adjuster needs to be set accordingly. To set this correctly the hardness of your water needs to be ascertained. Find on the table the level corresponding to the hardness of your water and the required adjustments or contact your local Water company to find the exact water hardness level for your area.

●Press and hold the Economy 50˚ button and set the mains switch 1

to ON, the Salt Indicator light 4 will flash. This shows that the Water Softener programme can now be adjusted.

After releasing the Economy 50˚ and Mains Switch buttons, the normal 65˚ and the Economy 50˚ light neons will be illuminated, showing that the factory set value is 2 (see table below). The Salt Indicator light will continue to flash until the setting is chosen.

●To change the setting:

Press the Economy 50˚ button. Each depression of the button increases the set value by one (0-3). If the Normal 65˚ button, Economy 50˚ button and the Quick Wash 35˚ button illuminate the maximum hardness value has been reached. See the table below.

After reaching 3, the display starts at 0 again (none of the 3 buttons will be illuminated).

●Switch off the Mains Switch 1 . The set value is stored in the appliance.

Approx. 4 litres of water are required for regenerating the water softening system. The overall water consumption per load can therefore be increased by between 0 and a maximum of 4 litres according to the water hardness setting.
