Prior to using for the first time

Before using your dishwasher for the first time:

1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the

installation instructions

2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance
3. Set the water softener
4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill with salt
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser
6. Run a "Rinse and Hold" programme

The water softener

The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to remove
minerals and salts from the water supply, which would have a
detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German degrees,
French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water
in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise you on the
hardness of the water in your area.
The dishwasher is factory set at position 2.
If your water is below level 1 it is already soft and therefore there is no
need to use salt. In this case adjust the water softener on level 1
without using salt.
If the water softener has been adjusted on level 1 and no salt is being
used, the salt refilling indicator light on the control panel will always
remain illuminated when the machine is switched on.
