Water softening system

To ensure good washing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. containing low amounts of lime, otherwise white limescale will be deposited on the utensils and inner container.

Tap water above 9° Clarke (from set value

•:‹‚) must be softened. The water is softened with 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 table).

Setting

The amount of salt dispensed can be set from •:‹‹ to •:‹ˆ.

Salt is not required at the set value •:‹‹. – Find out about the hardness value of

your tap water. Your water utility company will help you with this.

– Set value can be found in the water

hardness table.

– Close the door. –Switch on ON/OFF switch (. – Hold down programme button # and

press START button H until •:‹.... is

indicated on the digital display.

– Release both buttons.

The LED for button # flashes and the digital display h displays the factory setting •:‹….

To change the setting:

– Press programme button 3.

Each time the button is pressed, the set value increases by one level; when the value of •:‹ˆ has been reached, the display jumps back to •:‹‹ (off).

–Press START buttonH.

The chosen setting has now been stored.

Special salt $

Using special salt

Always refill with special salt immediately before switching on the appliance. This ensures that overrun special salt solution is immediately washed out and does not corrode the rinsing tank.

– Open the screw-type cap of the

compartment 1B.

– Fill the tank with water (only required

when switching on the appliance for the first time).

– Then add dishwasher salt (not table

salt or tablets). The water is displaced and runs out.

As soon as the salt refill indicator X on the fascia is lit, top up the salt.

Switching off salt refill indicator/ water softening system

If the salt refill indicator X is impaired (e.g. when using combined detergents containing salt component), it can be switched off.

– Proceed as described under “Adjusting

the water softening system” and set the value to •:‹‹.

The water softening system and salt refill indicator are now switched off.

ã=Warnings

– Never fill the salt dispenser with

detergent. You will destroy the water softening system.

– To prevent corrosion, always refill with

salt immediately before switching on the appliance.

* depending on model

Using detergents with salt component

If combined detergents with a salt component are used, salt can usually be omitted up to a water hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l). If the water hardness is over 21° dH, special salt must be used.

Rinse aid %

As soon as the rinse-aid refill indicator ` is lit on the fascia, there is still a rinse-aid reserve of 1 – 2 rinsing processes. Refill with rinse aid.

The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses. Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers.

Combined detergents with rinse-aid component may be used up to a water hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 26° Clarke,

3.7 mmol/l) only. If the water hardness is over 21° dH, rinse aid must be used.

–Open the dispenser 1Z by pressing

and lifting the plate on the cover.

– Carefully pour rinse aid up to the max.

mark in the filler opening.
