From a water hardness category of 1-2
(average), before using the dishwasher, fill the
salt container with regeneration salt (to find out
the hardness level of water in your area, contact
your local Water Board or check the last bill you
received).
If the water hardness level does not correspond
to position 3 on the selector (setting on delivery)
or if the water hardness level changes:
Turn the selector to the correct position.
Set the water hardness by turning the selector (if
fitted) inside the door (top left) using a screwdriver.
Use the table below to set the dial to the correct
setting:
If the water hardness level falls within category
1 (soft), no salt is required.
How to fill the salt container
Warning:
only use regeneration salts for
use in domestic dishwashers!
Do not fill the salt container with unsuitable
substances, such as detergent, as this will
cause irreparable damage to the water
softener system.
1.
Remove the lower rack.
2.
Unscrew the cap by turning it counter-
clockwise.
3.
When first using the dishwasher: fill the salt
container to the rim with water.
4.
Fill the salt container to the rim with salt
(using the filler provided) (when filling for the
first time use min. 1.5 kg and max. 2 kg) and
stir with a spoon handle.
5.
Screw the cap back on by turning it
clockwise.
6.
Fit the lower rack.
7.
After filling the regeneration salt container,
immediately
start a wash program (the
Prewash program alone is not sufficient), so
as to eliminate any residual saline solution
straight away.
Check the salt level regularly.
Salt level indicator
The dishwasher is equipped with an electric or
visual salt level indicator (depending on the
model installed).
Electric indicator:
The salt level indicator lamp on the control
panel lights up when the salt container is empty.
Visual indicator:
The float is clearly visible in the cap window
when the salt container is full.
The float lowers and is no longer visible when the
salt container is empty.
