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 will be left behind
on crockery and glasses, etc.
If the tap water exceeds a certain level of
hardness, it must be softened, i.e.
decalcified, so that it can be used in the
dishwasher.
This is achieved by adding a special salt
to the water softener inside the
dishwasher.
The water softener, that is the required
amount of salt, is set up according to how
hard the tap water is.
Setting up the water softener
Determine the level of hardness of your
tap water. Your local water company or
service agent can help you with this.
Identify setting from the following water
hardness table.
Water hardness table
Close the door
Rotate the programme selector
3
from the 12 o’clock position by one
notch to the left.
Switch on main switch
1
and hold
down for at least 3 sec.
The digital display
8
indicates the
current set hardness value and the salt
refill indicator
6
flashes
(hardness value has been set to 4
at the factory).
To change the setting: Rotate the
programme selector
3
.
You can select a set value between
0 and 7 according to the hardness
of your water.
Switch off the main switch
1
.
The chosen setting has now been
stored.
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.
