approx. 60 seconds.
By repeatedly pressing the Program button the
water hardness can be selected: H1->H2->H3

tion (see below table).
The setting is automatically saved after a few

Power button.

Fill in the salt
CAUTION:
Only refill the salt container when the salt warning
lamp is lighting.
During filling the salt container, salt and water can
escape. Start a program immediately after you
have filled the container to prevent corrosion.
Remove the lower basket and unscrew the lid of
the salt container.
Add about 1.5 kg of salt by using the supplied
funnel tube.
Full fill the salt container with water (just before
the first use).
Screw the lid firmly on again after filling the con-
tainer.
Depending on salt resolution, the warning lamp
usually disappears immediately after filling.
