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 dial 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 dial 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 button. The On/Off indicator light

illuminates (setting mode).

If a programme button indicator light is on, this means that

a washing programme has been set. The programme must

be cancelled: press simultaneously the function 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 set programme has been

cancelled and the machine is now in setting mode.

2. Press simultaneously function buttons 2 and 3, until the

indicator lights of the function buttons 1, 2 and 3 start

flashing.

3. Press the function button 1, the indicator lights of function

buttons 2 and 3 turn off while the indicator light of the

button 1 goes on flashing, at the same time the indicator

light END starts to flash.

The current level is indicated by the number of flashes of

the indicator light END (see chart).

Example: 5 flashes = level 5

4. To change the level, press button 1. Each time the 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 button 1 once, level 6 is

selected.

if the current level is 10, by pressing button 1 once, level 1

The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.
