NOTE!
The water softener device is factory-set to the
value of 20 cycles since this is generally sufficient
for most uses. During installation of the appliance,
the installation technician should nonetheless
check the correct setting of this value.
The regeneration of the resins is carried out by means of a
special regeneration cycle with coarse salt, following the
instructions described hereinafter.
CAUTION
Only use coarse salt with a purity level of
99.8% NaCl. The use of salt with a lower
purity level can cause clogging of the salt
container filter and malfunctioning of the
water softener.
Activation of the regeneration cycle
• When the message “REG“ appears on the display, activate
the cycle to regenerate the resins.
• Open the salt container.
• Pour approximately 0.5 Kg of coarse salt [NaCI] (the
amount necessary to fill the salt container up to the rim)
into container
“A“
.
Remove any salt residue from around the salt container
hole and screw the salt container top on again tightly.
CAUTION
Only salt may be placed in the salt
container. Do not introduce any other
chemical substances such as detergent,
rinse aid or descaling agent, since these
would inevitably damage the appliance.
Such damage invalidates any warranty
and relieves the manufacturer of all
liability.
• Open the door and remove the overflow
“A“
.
• Close the door.
• Start the regeneration cycle by pressing the REGENER-
ATION cycle button for at least 5 seconds.
CAUTION
Do not open the salt container during
the entire regeneration cycle as the
saline solution could spill out. During
this process it is normal to hear a
metallic sound for a short period.
• During the regeneration cycle the display alternately blinks
two symbols:
“0“
and
“[ ]“
:
• After about 50 minutes, 3 beeps indicate the end of the
regeneration cycle and “END“ blinks on the display:
• Replace the overflow.
• Close the door.
The dishwasher is now ready to start the normal working
functions.
IMPORTANT
If the regeneration cycle is accidentally started, it
can be switched off by pressing the regeneration
cycle button for at least 5 seconds.
The regeneration cycle is temporarily stopped:
• in the event of a power failure,
• if the door is opened,
• if the machine is switched off.
When normal conditions are reinstated, the symbols
“0“
and
“[ ]“
will flash alternately on the display.
