Before first use

softener agrees with the water hardness in
your area. If not, adjust the water softener.
Contact your local water authority to know
the water hardness in your area.
2. Fill the salt container.
3. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.

5. Processing residues can stay in the appli-
ance. Start a programme to remove them.
Do not use detergent and do not load the
baskets.
If you use the combi detergent tablets, ac-
tivate the multitab function. These tablets
contain detergent, rinse aid and other added
agents. Be sure that these tablets are applica-
ble to the water hardness in your area. Refer to
the instructions on the packaging of the prod-
ucts.
Adjusting the water softener
Hard water contains a high quantity of minerals
that can cause damage to the appliance and
bad washing results. The water softener neutral-
ises these minerals.
The dishwasher salt keeps the water softener
clean and in good conditions. Refer to the table
to adjust the water softener to the right level. It
makes sure that the water softener uses the
correct quantity of dishwasher salt and water.
You must adjust the water softener man-
ually and electronically.
