A. Set the water softener
B. Pour 500ml of water inside the salt container and then fill with dishwasher salt

D. Function of detergent
A. Water Softener
The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, 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 the water is. 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.

B. Loading the Salt into the Softener
Always use salt intended for using with dishwasher.
NOTE: If your model has no water softener, you may skip this section
WATER SOFTENER
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the
dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses salts specifically
designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the water.
The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as follows:
Attention!
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers! All other types of salt not specifically
designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of
damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is
liable for any caused damages.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes.
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been split, remaining on the
bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
After the first wash cycle the control panel light expires.
