This machine is equipped with a water softener. To use the water
softener, fill the dishwasher with salt.
1. Remove the bottom basket and then unscrew the cap from the
reservoir.
2. Before filling the reservoir for the first time, pour in one litre of water.
3. Insert the funnel into the reservoir opening. Pour in approximately
0,5 kg of salt. It is normal for a little water to flow out of the opening
when doing this.
4. Screw the cap back on firmly.
Attention!
• Clear up any spilled salt and always run a full cycle immediately
afterwards to prevent damage to the bottom.
• Always fill the salt reservoir and adjust the water hardness setting
before using the dishwasher. Refill the salt reservoir when the water
softener indicator lights up. It is possible that the light will remain
lit for a short while after the salt reservoir is filled. It will go out
automatically when enough salt has been dissolved in the water.
• Never fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher detergent. This will
cause irreparable damage to the water softener.
You can adjust the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of
the water used. Proceed as follows:
1. Within 60 seconds after switching on the diswasher: Press the
start/reset button for 5 seconds. The rinse aid warning light and the
water softener warning light will flash alternatively.
2. Select the level of salt consumption by repeatedly pressing the
program selector button. Each program corresponds with a certain
setting, see the table below.
