Water softenng system
C
Your dshwasher requres soft
water. If the hardness of the
water s above 6°dH, the water
must be softened and descaled.
Otherwse, ons that create
the hardness wll accumulate
on the surfaces of the dshes
and may adversely affect the
washng, shnng and dryng
performances of the product.
The product s equpped wth a water
softenng system whch reduces the
hardness of ncomng water. Ths system
softens the supply water that enters nto the
product to a level that wll allow washng the
dshes wth the requred qualty.
Adjustng the water
softenng system
Washng performance wll ncrease when
water softenng system s adjusted properly.
Adjust the new water hardness level
accordng to the Water hardness level
nstructon n ths booklet.
Addng salt
Water softenng system needs to be
regenerated n order that the product
operates wth the same performance
contnuously. Dshwasher salt s used for
ths purpose.
C
Use only specal softenng salts
produced partcularly for the
dshwashers n your machne.
C
We recommend usng granular
or powder softenng salts. Do
not use salts that are nsoluble
n water such as table salt or
common salt. Performance of
water softenng system may
get worse n tme.
C
Salt reservor wll fll wth water
when you start the product.
Therefore, add the softenng
salt before startng the
machne.
1. Frst take the lower basket out to add
softenng salt.

5. If you wll not start a washng programme
mmedately after addng the salt, run the
machne empty n the shortest programme
to dssolve and wash away the scattered

Before ntal use, fll the water
softenng system wth 1 ltre of
water (C).
3. Fll the salt reservor wth salt by usng

Water hardness &
regeneraton settngs
The dshwasher requres lme free water.
Hard water leaves watermarks on your
dshes. Your dshwasher has a specal
water softenng system to remove the
hardness of the tap water. Settng ths
system correctly wll ncrease the washng
effectveness.
To fnd out the hardness level of water n
your area, contact your local Water Board or
Determne water hardness level by the help
of test strp provded.
If you move to a different location,
the level of water hardness will
possibly be different. It is essential to
reset the water hardness in order to
obtain optimum washing efficiency.
