Before washing for the first time

The water softener

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 to check the water hardness
in your area.

Adjusting the water softener

Chapter Settings on page describes how to adjust the
water softener.

Fill up the salt

Before you begin using a dishwasher with a water softener,
you must fill the salt compartment with salt for the water
supply to be softened automatically. Use large grain salt or
special dishwasher salt.

WARNING!

In order to avoid rust stains a dishwashing programme
must be started immediately after adding salt.

Never pour dishwasher detergent into the salt
compartment. This destroys the water softener!

Do as follows the first time:

1

Unscrew the lid as illustrated.

2

Place the funnel supplied with the dishwasher in the salt
compartment top-up hole. First, pour in about 1 l of
water.

3

Then add salt, a maximum of 1.5 kg, until the
compartment is full.

4

Wipe up any excess salt so that the lid can be screwed
on firmly.

5

Run a programme to ensure that any salt in the
dishwasher is rinsed away.

Salt compartment lid

Refill salt indicator

When the salt needs topping up, the above symbol lights
on the display.

When the salt runs out, unscrew the cap and fill the
container with salt. Water is only needed the first time! Wipe
clean and tighten. Run a programme to ensure that any salt
in the dishwasher is rinsed away.

After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes
out.

Top up with rinse aid

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.

1

Open the rinse aid compartment lid.

2

Carefully top up with rinse aid. Only add rinse aid to the
level marked

max

.

3

Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the
compartment.

4

Close the lid firmly.

Press to open

Refill rinse aid indicator

When the rinse aid needs topping up, the above symbol
lights on the display.

After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes
out.

Setting the rinse aid dosage

The section Settings describes how to set the rinse aid
dosage. Rinse aid dispensing can be set from 0 (Off) to 5
(High dose). (Factory settings: 5)

Decrease the rinse aid dosage:

If the dishes have a sticky white/blue film.

If the dishes are streaked.

Build-up of foam. If you have very soft water, the rinse
aid can be diluted 50:50 with water.
