2. There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see
figure to the side), if necessary, rotate the ring in the
anticlockwise direction from the "-" setting towards the
"+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.
It is recommended that adjustments should be made in
accordance with the following schema:
The water softener must be set manually, using the water hardness dial.
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.
Adjusting Salt Consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the
hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt

Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.

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.
