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.
Setting 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 level 3.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be
adjusted.
If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore
there is no need to use salt.
With the setting of the water softener at level 1 the salt
indicator light on the control panel will always remain off.
Use salt from level 2 upwards.
To select a different level be sure that the
dishwasher is off and then proceed as follows:
1. Press Intensive 70° 80’ and Normal 65° programme push
buttons simultaneously.
2. While keeping the programme push buttons Intensive 70°
80’ and Normal 65° pressed switch on the dishwasher by
pressing the On/Off push button.
The On/Off indicator light comes on. At the same time, the
indicator lights of the Intensive 70° 80’ and Normal 65°
push buttons start flashing.
3. Press the Intensive 70° 80’ push button, the indicator light
of the Normal 65° push button turns off, while the indicator
light of the Intensive 70° 80’ push button remains fixed for
about 5 seconds and then starts to flash indicating the
current level
The current level is indicated by the number of flashes
made by the Intensive 70° 80’ indicator light, that
alternates 5 seconds off with a number of flashes, this
continues for about 60 seconds.
Example:
1 flash = level 1
2 flashes = level 2
3 flashes = level 3
4 flashes = level 4
5 flashes = level 5
4. To change the level, press the Intensive 70° 80’
programme push button. Each time the push button is
pressed the level changes.
Example:
If the current level is 3, by pressing the Intensive 70° 80’
programme push button once, level 4 is selected.
If the current level is 5, by pressing the Intensive 70° 80’
programme push button once, level 1 is selected.
The Intensive 70° 80’ indicator light remains off for about 5
seconds after which it starts flashing indicating the new
level selected.
5. To memorise the new level, switch off the dishwasher by
pressing the On/Off push button.
