Before washing for the
first time
1. Checking water hardness
In order to achieve good dishwashing results, the dishwasher needs
soft water (water with low mineral content). Hard water leaves a white
coating on dishes and the dishwasher.
Water hardness is specified using the following scales: The German
water hardness scale (°dH) and the French water hardness scale (°fH).
A water supply with a water hardness in excess of 6°dH (9°fH) must
be softened. This is done automatically with the aid of the built-in water
softener. In order for the softener to function optimally, it must be
adjusted to the hardness of the water supply.
Contact the local waterworks, or measure the water hardness using
the supplied test strip, to check the water hardness in your area. Once
you have adjusted the water softener, use detergent and rinse aid
doses suitable for soft water.
How to use the test strip:
1 Turn on the water tap and let the water run for a minute or so.
2 Fill a glass with water.
3 Remove the test strip from its packaging.
4 Dip the test strip in the water for about one second.
5 Wait one minute. Now compare the colours of the squares with the
water hardness table.

Drying is faster and a better result is achieved if you use rinse aid.
You will also achieve a better dishwashing result with clear and
spotless dishes.
Select rinse aid dosage. The rinse aid dispenser can be adjusted
between 0 (Off) and 5 (High dosage).
When using an all-in-one detergent that contains rinse aid, you can
activate the setting TAB. Read more about all-in-one detergent in the

the water softener to 1 - 9.
For a water supply with a hardness under 6°dH (9°fH), select 0. The
water softener is deactivated and no salt is needed.
