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 HOLD programme
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 dishwasher is factory set at level 4.
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener
should be adjusted.
To select a different level be sure that
the dishwasher is off and then proceed
as follows:
1. Press the ON-OFF push button.
2. Press simultaneously for about 5 seconds the
programme push buttons INTENSIVE SID 80
and NORMAL, in the digital display appears the
current level (L 4).
3. Press the INTENSIVE SID 80 programme push
button as many times as necessary until the
required level appears in the digital display. The
level increases by 1 each time the button is
pressed.
After 5 seconds that the INTENSIVE SID 80
programme push button has last been pressed,
the dishwasher memorises the new level and
returns to the programme setting mode.

Water hardness
SO365
If your water is level 0 it is already soft
and therefore there is no need to use salt.
With the setting of the water softener at
level 0 the salt indicator light on the
control panel will always remain off.
Use salt from level 1 upwards.
