Before using for the first time
Water hardness
The display will change to the screen for setting the water hardness.
–The dishwasher must be program‐ med to the correct water hardness for your area.
–Your local water authority will be able to advise you of the water hardness level in your area.
–Where the water hardness fluctuates e.g. between 1.8 and 2.7 mmol/l (10 - 15 °d - German scale) always pro‐ gramme the dishwasher to the higher value (2.7 mmol/l or 15 °d in this ex‐ ample).
In the event of a fault, it will help the service technician if you know the hard‐ ness of your local water supply.
Enter the water hardness below:
____________mmol/l or °d
The dishwasher is programmed at the factory for a water hardness level of 2.7 mmol/l (15 °d - German scale).
Use the arrow buttons to select the hardness you want and confirm with OK.
See "Settings menu, Water hardness" for more information.
The message Set up finished will then ap‐ pear in the display.
After confirming this with OK, the
prompts Add salt and Add rinse aid
may appear.
Add salt and rinse aid if necessary (see "Before using for the first time - "Dishwasher salt" and "Rinse aid").
Confirm the messages with OK.
The programme selected will appear briefly in the display and the appropri‐ ate indicator light will come on.
Then, if applicable, the estimated ener‐ gy and water consumption for the pro‐ gramme selected will appear for a few seconds.
Finally, the display will show the esti‐ mated programme duration for the pro‐ gramme selected.
These basic settings will be saved in memory after the dishwasher has been through one complete programme.
