en Water softener In order to rinse dishes and glasses satisfactorily, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. containing little or no lime, otherwise water stains will be left behind on crockery and glasses, etc. If the tap water exceeds a certain level of hardness, it must be softened, i.e. decalcified, so that it can be used in the dishwasher. This is achieved by adding a special salt to the water softener inside the dishwasher. The water softener, that is the required amount of salt, is set up according to how hard the tap water is. Setting up the water softener Determine the level of hardness of your tap water. Your local water company or service agent can help you with this. Identify setting from the following water hardness table. Close the door Rotate the programme selector 3 from the 12 o’clock position by one notch to the left. Water hardness table Switch on main switch 1 and hold down for at least 3 sec. The display 9 flashes and the lamps above the symbols and light up. (hardness value has been set to 2 at the factory). To change the setting: Rotate the programme selector 3 . You can select a set value between 0 and 3 according to the hardness of your water. If the lamps , and light up, the maximum set hardness value has been reached. If the set hardness value is now increased again, the lamps go out and the set hardness value is set to 0 (no lamp lights up). Switch off the main switch 1 . The chosen setting has now been stored. dh fH Clarke mmol/l 0–6 0–11 0–8 0–1,1 0 7–16 12–29 9–20 1,2–2,9 1 17–21 30–37 21–26 3,0–3,7 2 22–35 38–62 27–44 3,8–6,2 3 en Filling in the Salt Open the screw-type cap of the compartment 24 . Warning Before switching on the appliance for the first time, pour approx. 1 litre of water into the salt dispenser. Then refill with salt (not cooking salt) until the salt container is full (max. 1.5 kg). When you refill the salt, water is being displaced and drains off. Refill with salt always just before switching on the appliance in order to prevent corrosion. As a result, any salt solution which has run over will be immediately diluted and flushed out. Then clean the filling area of salt residues and screw the compartment lid back on without tilting the lid. The LOW SALT indicator 9 on the front panel will light up initially but will extinguish again after a short period when the salt solution has become sufficiently concentrated. If the set hardness value is ”0”, do not add salt because no salt is used during operation; the salt refill indicator is switched off. Do not pour detergent into the container for special salt. This would destroy the water softener. Salt refill indicator As soon as the salt refill indicator 9 is lit on the control panel, refill with salt immediately before the next rinse cycle. Depending on the washing frequency and the hardness setting, the regeneration salt may not have to be topped up for several months. en Adding rinse aid The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear g...
