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 (TH°) and mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the hardness of water).

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 programme selector dial and the Start/Cancel button.

b)Setting electronically

(The dishwasher must be switched off)

The dishwasher is factory set at level 5.

1.Keep the Start/Cancel button pressed and turn the programme selector dial clockwise until the programme selection marker corresponds with the first washing programme.

The On/Off and Start/Cancel indicator lights start to flash indicating that you have activated the water softener setting function.

At the same time, the End indicator light starts flashing.

The current level is indicated by the number of flashes of the End indicator light and a pause of about 5 seconds (see chart).

Example: 5 flashes + pause + 5 flashes etc...= level 5

2.To change the level, press the Start/Cancel button.

Each time this button is pressed the level changes. (For the selection of the new level, see chart).

Examples:

If current level is 5, by pressing the Start/Cancel button once, level 6 is selected.

If current level is 10, by pressing the Start/Cancel button once, level 1 is selected.

The End indicator light remains off for about 5 seconds and then starts flashing indicating the new set made.

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.

The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.

3.To memorise the operation, switch off the machine by returning the programme selector dial to the Off position, that is the programme selection marker corresponds with the On/Off indicator light.

Otherwise wait for about 60 seconds, after which the dishwasher will automatically return to setting mode.
