Water softener
In order to achieve good cleaning re
-
sults, the dishwasher needs to operate
with soft water. Hard water results in the
build-up of calcium deposits on crocke
-
ry and in the dishwasher.
Mains water with a hardness level hig
-
her than 0.7 mmol/l (4° d – German
scale) needs to be softened. This takes
place automatically in the integrated
water softener.
–
The water softener requires dishwas
-
her reactivation salt.
– The dishwasher must be program-
med for the water hardness in your
area.
– Your local water authority will be able
to advise you of the water hardness
level in your area.
Where the water hardness fluctuates
e.g. between 1.4 - 3.1 mmol/l (8 - 17 °d
German scale) always programme the
dishwasher to the higher value
(3.1 mmol/l in this example).
In the case of a fault, it will help the
service technician if you know the hard
-
ness of your local water supply.

Enter the water hardness below:
mmol/l or °d
The dishwasher is programmed at
the factory for a water hardness level
of 3.4 mmol/l (19 °d).
If this setting corresponds to the hard
-
ness of your water you do not need to
do anything more.
If your water is harder or softer, you will
need to programme the water hardness
level using the buttons on the control
panel. Each time a button is pressed
one of the other indicator lights will
flash and light up in the control panel.
However, only the indicator lights men
-
tioned in the following programming
process stages are significant.
The programming procedure can be
cancelled at any time by pressing
the On/Off button. The procedure
can then be re-started from the be-
ginning again.
