Before Using your Dishwasher
Adjusting the water softener.
Your dishwasher can adjust its salt
consumption according to the hard-
ness of the water in your home.
This way, you can optimise and
customise your dishwasher's salt
consumption.
To adjust salt consumption, do as
follows:
1. Unscrew the salt container cap
2. There is an arrow on the neck
of the container (see figure): if
necessary, turn the arrow anti-
clockwise from the "-" setting
to the "+" setting.
Select the arrow position
depending on the water
hardness, referring to the table.
To prevent rust from forming,
load the salt just before
beginning a wash cycle.

Filling the salt container.
Always use salt which is intended
for dishwasher use.
The salt container is situated
underneath the lower basket, fill it
up as follows:
1.Pull out the lower basket
completely, unscrew and
remove the container cap
2. If it is the first time you add the
salt, first fill the container up with
water (you won't have to do this
again next time)
3. Put the dishwasher funnel on the
hole and pour in approximately
two kilos of salt. It is normal that
some water comes out of the
container.
4. Screw the cap back in place
carefully.
When to add salt:
The salt container should be filled
up when the low salt indicator light
“S” flashes.
The dishwasher will remind you to
do so for three consecutive wash
cycles.

You don't know how hard
the water in your home
is? Ask the company that

area.
