Before washing for the
first time
Programme key
Some dishwashers include programme keys in different
languages. Attach the programme key in the desired language
to the top of the door.
The water softener
In order to achieve good dishwashing results, the dishwasher
needs soft water (water with low mineral content). Hard water
leaves a white coating on dishes and the dishwasher.
Water hardness is specified using the following scales: The
German water hardness scale (°dH) and the French water
hardness scale (°fH). A water supply with a water hardness in
excess of 6°dH (9°fH) must be softened. This is done
automatically with the aid of the built-in water softener. In order
for the softener to function optimally, it must be adjusted to the
hardness of the water supply.
Contact the local waterworks, or measure the water hardness
using the supplied test strip, to check the water hardness in your
area. Once you have adjusted the water softener, use detergent
and rinse aid doses suitable for soft water.
How to use the test strip:
1 Turn on the water tap and let the water run for a minute or so.
2 Fill a glass with cold water.
3 Remove the test strip from its packaging.
4 Dip the test strip in the water for about one second.
5 Wait one minute. Now compare the colours of the squares
with the water hardness table.

Adjusting the water softener
Chapter Settings on page 13 describes how to adjust the water
softener. See also the Chapter Settings. Do not forget to put salt
in the salt compartment after you have set the water softener.
Fill up the salt
Before you begin using a dishwasher with a water softener, you
must fill the salt compartment with salt. Use large grain salt or
special dishwasher salt.
WARNING!
Top up the salt just before running a programme. To avoid the
risk of rust stains, the dishwasher must be rinsed immediately
after topping up the salt.
Never pour dishwasher detergent into the salt compartment.
This destroys the water softener!
Do as follows the first time:
1 Unscrew the lid as illustrated.
2 Place the funnel supplied with the dishwasher in the salt
compartment top-up hole. First, pour in about 1 l of water.
3 Then add salt, a maximum of 1.5 kg, until the compartment is
full.
4 Wipe up any excess salt so that the lid can be screwed on
firmly.
5 Run a programme to ensure that any salt in the dishwasher
is rinsed away.
Salt compartment lid
Refill salt indicator
When the salt needs topping up, the above symbol lights on the
display.
When the salt runs out, unscrew the cap and fill the container
with salt. Water is only needed the first time! Wipe clean and
tighten. Run a programme to ensure that any salt in the
dishwasher is rinsed away.
NOTE!
After topping up, it may take a while before the symbol goes
out.
Top up with rinse aid
Drying is faster and a better result is achieved if you use rinse
aid. You will also achieve a better dishwashing result with clear
and spotless dishes.
1 Open the rinse aid compartment lid.
2 Carefully top up with rinse aid. Only add rinse aid to the level
marked max.
3 Wipe up any splashes of rinse aid around the compartment.
4 Close the lid firmly.
Refill rinse aid indicator
When the rinse aid needs topping up, the above symbol lights
on the display.
