Regulating the water softener
The table below lists different degrees of water hardness with the corresponding setting
for the softener unit.

Place the baskets in the machine.
Make sure that both the spray arms are free to rotate and are not obstructed by
cutlery, crockery or pans. Close the door, pressing on it to make sure it is firmly shut.
Water softener unit
Depending on the source of the supply, water contains varying amounts of limestone
and minerals which are deposited on the dishes leaving whitish stains and marks.
The higher the level of these minerals present in the water, the harder the water is.
The dishwasher is fitted with a water softener unit which, through the use of special
regenerating salt, supplies softened water for washing the dishes. The softener unit
can treat water with a hardness of up to 60°fH (French grading) or 33°dH (German
grading) through five different settings.
The degree of hardness of your water can be obtained from your water supply
company.

- *The water softener unit is set in the factory
at level 2, as this is suitable for the majority
of users.
If your water is at level 0, you need not use
any regenerating salt, nor need you make
any adjustment, as your water is soft.
According to the degree of hardness of
your water, regulate the softener unit in the
following way:
- remove the lower rack. Unscrew and remove
the cap from the salt dispenser located in
the bottom of the tub (Fig. A “1”);
- Turn the selector screw to the required
position with a screwdriver or a knife.
N.B.: For models fitted with electronic programmer refer to the programme list
enclosed.
