Daily check
Filling the salt reservoir - Dissolve limescale (not necessary if water hardness level is set to “soft”!)
- Press and hold together PROGRAM Selection and CANCEL/Off buttons for minimum 3 seconds.
- The current water hardness setting will be visible on the display.
- Press the PROGRAM Selection button to increase setting. Value range goes from 1 to 7 (when the level reaches 7, the next
press of the start button will set the level back to 1).
- Wait 30 seconds (control panel switches off) or press Start/Resume button to save setting.
Screw on the cap.
Salt residual

need to be
removed. Some
salt reservoir have
a level indicator
integrated in the
cap (see below
how to check).
At first time use, the salt
reservoir has to be filled
independently from water
hardness level (see
description below in step 1
“Daily check”).
1. Ask your water supply company what the water hardness is...
2. ...enter this value on
your dishwasher

Water hardness level is factory
set for medium-hard water
(level 4).
Even if you use tablets which
include salt functionality, you
must still add regeneration salt
since such detergents are not
effective enough at softening
hard water.
Once regeneration salt is added, immediately start a wash program (the “Pre-wash” program alone is not sufficient). Residual saline solution or grains of salt can lead to
deep-down corrosion, irreparably damaging the stainless steel components. The guarantee is not applicable if faults are caused by such circumstances.
Fill the salt reservoir with water
before the first wash only.
Add salt (never add detergent!)
