Before using your dishwasher for the
first time:
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections com ly
with the installation instructions
2. Remove all ackaging from inside the a liance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill
with salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dis enser.
6. Run a Rinse and Hold rogramme.
Setting the water softener
The dishwasher is equi ed with a water softener designed to
remove minerals and salts from the water su ly, which would
have a detrimental or adverse effect on the o eration of the
a liance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke
degrees, French degrees and PPM ( arts er Million).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of
the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise
you on the hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at level 4.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be
adjusted.
If your water is level 0 it is already soft and therefore
there is no need to use salt.
With the setting of the water softener at level 0 the salt
indicator light on the control panel will always remain off.
Use salt from level 1 upwards.
The adjustment of the water softener is possible only with
the machine in setting mode.
To select a different level proceed as follows:
1. Press Half load and Drying options ush buttons
simultaneously for about 5 seconds. In the dis lay a ears
an L followed by a number (e.g. L 4) which corres onds to
the current level.
2. Press within 5 seconds the Drying options ush button
(No Dry indicator light flashes) until the required level
a ears in the dis lay. The level increases by 1 each time
the ush button is ressed.
3. 5 seconds after the Drying options ush button has last
been ressed, the dishwasher memorises the level
selected and returns to the rogramme setting mode.
Filling with salt
Only use salt specifically designed for use in
dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in
a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water
softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete
washing programmes. This will prevent any grains of salt
or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on
the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which
may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the ca of the salt container.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is necessary
only before filling with salt for the first time).
3. Using the funnel rovided, our in the salt until the
container is full.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when filling
with salt, this is quite normal.
4. Re lace the ca making sure that there is no trace of salt
on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the ca tightly.
The salt container will require to ing u eriodically.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the
control anel which comes on when the salt has finished.
The salt indicator light on the control panel can remain
illuminated for 2-6 hours after the salt has been
replenished, assuming the dishwasher remains switched
on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then
this can take longer.
The operation of the machine is not affected.
