Before you start operating the appliance, check that
(1)
the appliance is positioned and levelled properly.
(2)
the inlet valve is opened.
(3)
the connections of the hoses do not leak.
(4)
the appliance is plugged in properly.
(5)
the power is switched on.
(6)
the hoses are not knotted.
(7)
you have removed the complete packaging material.
Before you operate the appliance for the first time:
(a)

pour 500 ml water into the container of the water softener
and pour in the water softener (= dishwasher salt).
(c)

4.1 Water softener
You must fill in the water-softener manually; please use the
water-softener filler hole. Open the lid and pour approx. 2 kg
of water-softener into the container; then close the lid
properly.
How to fill the water softener container
The water softener container is beneath the lower dish rack.
Only use a water softener (= dishwasher salt) which is
suitable for dishwashers. Other water softeners and salts,
especially table salt, will damage the water softener
container.
The manufacturer shall not guarantee against and is not
liable for any damage caused by an unsuitable water
softener.
Fill the container only shortly before you start a
programme, otherwise spilled residuals of the water
softener may remain in the appliance and cause corrosion.
The control light on the control panel goes off after the first
programme.
