Setting the water hardness
The display changes to the screen for
setting the water hardness.
- The dishwasher must be pro-
grammed to the correct water hard-
ness for your area.
- Your local water authority will be able
to advise you of the water hardness
level in your area.
- Where the water hardness fluctuates,
e.g., between 10-16 gpg (10–15 °dH),
always program the dishwasher to
the higher value (16 gpg (15 °dH) in
this example).
It is useful to know your water hardness
so that you can provide the service
technician with this information in the
event of any service calls.
Enter the water hardness below:
____________ gpg (°dH)
The dishwasher is programmed at the
factory for a water hardness level 1 gpg
(1 °dH).
Set the water hardness level in your
area and confirm with

.
See “Water hardness” under “Set-
tings” for more information.
Finally, prompts will appear in the dis-
play.
After confirming these prompts with
OK
, the messages

and

may appear.
Add salt and rinse aid if necessary
(see “Reactivation salt” and “Rinse
aid” under “Before using for the first
time”).
Select
OK
to confirm the messages.
The program selected will appear in the
display briefly and the indicator light for
the program selected will come on.
The display will then show the esti-
mated program duration for the pro-
gram selected.
