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, Clarke
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 water softener must be set in both ways: manually, using
the water hardness switch and electronically, using the function
push buttons on the control panel.
If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore there
is no need to use salt.
a) Setting manually
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the lower basket from the dishwasher.
3. Turn the water hardness switch to position 1 or 2 (see
table).
4. Replace the lower basket.
The dishwasher is factory set
at position 2.
b) Setting electronically
(The dishwasher must be switched off)
The dishwasher is factory set at level 3.
If it’s necessary to set a new level, proceed as follows.
1. Press function push buttons 1 and 2 simultaneously.
2. While keeping the function push buttons 1 and 2 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 function push
buttons 1 and 2 start flashing.
3. Press function push button 1, the indicator light of function
push button 2 turns off, while the indicator light of function
push button 1 remains fixed for about 5 seconds, after this it
starts flashing indicating the current level of the water
softener.
The current level is indicated by the number of flashes
made by the indicator light of function push button 1, that
alternates 5 seconds off with a number of flashes, this 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 function push button 1. Each
time the push button is pressed the level changes.
Examples:
if the current level is 3, by pressing function push button 1
once, level 4 is selected.
if the current level is 5, by pressing function push button 1
once, level 1 is selected.
The indicator light of function push button 1 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.
