BEFORE WASHING FOR THE FIRST
TIME
PROGRAMME KEY
Some dishwashers include programme keys in different languages.
Attach the programme key in the desired language to the top of
the door.
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. Once you have adjusted the water softener, use detergent
and rinse aid doses suitable for soft water.
ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENER
Chapter Settings, page 12 describes how to adjust the water
softener. Don't forget to fill the salt compartment with salt after
adjusting 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. Use large grain salt or
special dishwasher salt.
WARNING!
Top up the salt just before running a programme. To avoid the
risk of rust stains, the dishwasher must be rinsed immediately
after topping up the salt.
WARNING!
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.

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.
NOTE!
After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes
out.
TOP UP WITH RINSE AID
Drying is faster if you use rinse aid.
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.
