To determine the water hardness in your area, contact
your local water utility or area water softening company.
Twelve grains and higher is extremely hard water and
you may need to use a water softener to maximize the
performance of your dishwasher.

If you decide you need a water softener, fill the softener
container with salt as follows:
1. Unscrew and remove the container cover.
2. Place the funnel supplied with the dishwasher into
the fill hole.
3. Pour in approximately 4 cups (1 litre) of water.
4. Pour in about 3 pounds (1.5 kg) of coarse salt or
special dishwasher salt.
5. Wipe away excess salt so the cover can be properly
screwed into place.
6. Run a Normal wash program so that any salt in the
machine is rinsed out.
WARNING!
Never pour dishwasher detergent into the softener
container. It will ruin the water softener.
The dishwasher is delivered with the low water
hardness setting, so you may need to reset it. To do
this, follow the steps below:
1. Turn off the power to the dishwasher.
2. Hold down the Start/Stop button while you press the
Power button to turn the machine back on.
3. Release the Start/Stop button.

When the salt container needs to be refilled, the softener
refill indicator light on the control panel will come on
(see page 8). Follow the instructions above (“Filling the
Softener Container”), except for adding water. That only
needs to be done the first time you add salt.
After you have refilled the container, there may be a
slight delay before the indicator light goes off.
4. Press the program button one to six times,
depending on the hardness of the water.
With each press of the Program button, a program
indicator light will come on. Using the table below,
determine the setting you need.
5. When the appropriate symbols are lit, press the Start/
Stop button to store the setting.
