Prior to Using for the First Time
1. Set the water softener
2. Fill up with special salt for water softeners
3. Fill up with rinse aid
3 If you wish to use “3in1” detergent, please do the following:
– First read the section “Using 3in1 detergents”.
– Switch on the dishwasher, go to option 3 IN 1, change value to ON
(see section “ Adjusting an option/setting”); symbol lights up in
the symbol line. As a result
– there is no need to fill up with special salt or rinse aid.
– there is no need to set the water softener.
– there is no need to activate/deactivate the rinse aid dispenser.
– Before the start of the dishwashing cycle put 3in1 detergent in the
detergent dispenser.
Setting the Water Softener
The water softener must be set manually and electronically:
3 To avoid scale deposits on the dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes
must be washed with soft water, i.e. water with a low lime content. The
water softener must be set according to the table to the water hardness in the area where you live. Your local water company will be able
to give you information about the water hardness in your area.
The dishwasher must be switched off.
Setting manually:
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the lower basket from the
dishwasher.
3. Turn water hardness dial on the left
wall of the dishwasher interior to O
or 1 (see table).
12
Setting electronically:
1. Press the ON/OFF button.
3 If the name of a stage of a cycle is shown on the display, this means a
rinsing cycle is active. You must first of all cancel the rinsing cycle:
– Press the RESET key combination.
The display will read CONFIRM CANCEL?
– Press the OK/START button. This will cancel the rinsing cycle.
2. Go to the WATER HARDNESS setting; see section “Adapting an option/
setting”.
3. Set WATER HARDNESS to the right setting.
If the water softener is set electronically to “1” this switches off the
display of the REFILL SALT message.

Adding special salt
To decalcify the water softener, it must be filled up with dishwasher
salt. Use only special salt suitable for domestic dishwashers.
If you do not use 3in1 detergent, fill up with dishwasher salt:
– Before using the dishwasher for the first time.
– If when starting a cycle the message REFILL SALT is displayed.
1. Open the door and remove the lower basket.
2. Unscrew the lid on the salt dispenser by turning it anti-clockwise.
3. Only when using the dishwasher
for the first time:
Fill the salt dispenser with water.
4. Place the funnel (supplied) over the
dispenser opening.
Fill the dispenser with dishwasher
salt; the capacity of the dispenser is
approx. 1.0-1.5 kg, depending on
the size of the grains. Do not overfill
the dispenser.
3 If water overflows when filling up with dishwasher salt, this is com-
pletely harmless.
5. Clean away any salt remnants from the dispenser opening.
6. Screw the lid back on in a clockwise direction.
7. Run a dishwashing cycle after filling the salt dispenser with special
salt. This will wash away salt water and salt crystals that have been
spilt.
3 Depending on the size of the grains, it can take several hours for the
salt to dissolve in the water and for the message REFILL SALT not to be
displayed when starting a dishwashing cycle.
14
Filling Up with Rinse Aid
Rinse aid causes the rinse water to flow easily from the crockery leaving gleaming dishes and glassware.
If you do not use 3in1 detergent, fill up with rinse aid:
– Before using the dishwasher for the first time.
– If when starting a dishwashing cycle the message REFILL RINSE AID is
displayed.
Use only special rinse aid for dishwashers and no other liquid detergents.
1. Open the door.
The rinse aid compartment is located on the inside of the dishwasher
door.
2. Press the release button on the rinse
aid compartment.
3. Open the cover.
4. Pour rinse aid in slowly right up to
the broken “max” line;
this corresponds to a volume of approx. 140 ml when full.
5. Press the lid shut until it clicks into
place.
6. Wipe up any spilt rinse aid with a
cloth. Otherwise there will be too
much foam when rinsing.
