Consult your local Water Board, check your last water bill for the correct adjustment.

•Set the water hardness by turning the selector (if fitted and according to the model). Use the tables below to set the dial to the required setting:

• with 5 settings (see drawing):

Selector	Water	French	German
setting	hardness	degrees °fH	degrees °dH
1	1 soft *	0 - 15	0	- 9
1	1 - 2 medium	16 - 25	10	- 15
2	2 medium	26 - 38	16	- 22
3	3 medium-hard	39 - 60	23	- 35
4	4 hard	61 - 80	36	- 46
5	4 very hard	81 - 92	47	- 54

Minimum adjustment		0 - 15	0	- 9
Medium adjustment		16 - 40	10	- 23
Maximum adjustment		40 - 92	24	- 54

• If the water hardness level exceeds category 1-2 (medium), before using the dishwasher for the first time, fill the salt container and run a wash cycle so that any excess saline solution discharged is immediately removed by the water to prevent corrosion. The pre-rinse cycle is not sufficient for this purpose.

• Check the salt level regularly.

• Important: Only use regeneration salts recommended for use in domestic dishwashers. Do not fill the salt container with detergent as this will cause irreparable damage to the water softener system.

1.Remove the lower rack.

2.Unscrew the cap by turning it counterclockwise.

3.If the dishwasher is new, fill the salt container with water (about 1 liter).
