+Water softening
system / special salt
Watersofteningsystem/specialsalt To ensure good rinsing results, the
dishwasher requires soft water, i.e.
water which is low in lime, otherwise
limescale will be deposited on the
utensils and interior container. Tap
water above 7° dH (1.2 mmol/l) must
be softened. The water is softened with
special salt (regeneration salt) in the
water softening system
of the dishwasher. The setting and
therefore the required amount of salt
depends on the degree of hardness of
your tap water (see following water
hardness table).
Water hardness table
Adjusting the water softening
system
You can set the amount of salt that
should be added to a value between

Here’s how to set up the amount of
added salt:
1. Ask your local water utility company
for the water hardness value of the
tap water.
2. Required setting can be found in the
water hardness table.
3. Switch on ON/OFF switch (.

7. Press START button P.
The chosen setting has now been
stored in your dishwasher.
Using special salt
Top up the special salt as soon as the
salt refill indicator `lights up in the
control panel. Always top up the special
salt immediately before switching on the
dishwasher. This ensures that overrun
special salt solution is immediately
rinsed out and that corrosion in the
washing tank cannot occur.
Caution!
Detergent will destroy the water
softening unit! Never pour detergent into
the dispenser for special salt.
