Installation, connection and initial commissioning
Automatic regeneration
In order to make sure that the water soften-
ing system works, the water softening sys-
tem is automatically regenerated at regular
intervals.
The regeneration process of your appliance
begins with the drying cycle. The water and
energy consumption then increases and
the duration of the programme is extended.
There is no regeneration process in the short
programme.
The frequency of the regeneration process
depends on the selected water hardness:

Example ECO programme: with a water
hardness level of H3 and under laboratory
conditions, the duration of the programme in-
creases by 4 minutes. The energy consump-
tion increases by 0.02 kWh and the water
consumption by 2.0 litres.
Test run
It is recommended that you carry out a test
run before the first dishwasher cycle in order
to remove residues from the manufacturing
process and in order to ensure that the appli-
ance functions perfectly.
If no water escapes during the test run and if
there are no unusual noises, the appliance is
ready to use.
Carry out this test run when the dishwasher is
empty and without any dishwasher detergent.
See chapter “Dishwasher operation” from
page EN-21 for the procedure.
