Before First Use
The dishwasher baskets are protected for transportation by special clamps.
Please remove all these clamps before you use the dishwasher.
After the dishwasher is installed you must prepare it for operation.
Before first use, carry out the following procedure:
- set up the water softening unit
- fill the salt container with salt
- fill the rinse aid dispenser
You will find comprehensive information on the individual point in the following
chapter.
To ensure minimum salt usage and optimum cleaning results, the dishwasher
has an electronic hardness setting with ten available settings - H0-H9.
Setting the Water Softening Unit
Soft (calcium-free) water is required for machine-washing dishes in order to
avoid calcium deposits on the crockery and in the dishwasher. Therefore, water
with a hardness of more than 4° Clarke must be softened for using in a dish¬
washer.
The dishwasher has a water softening unit for this purpose. The water softening
unit is automatically and regularly dosed with salt solution. The amount of salt
needed for regeneration depends on local water hardness. Information on wa¬
ter hardness and the range of hardness in your home is obtainable from your
local Water Authority.
To ensure optimum regeneration of the water softener:
- the water softening unit must be adjusted to the local water hardness
- the salt in the salt container must always be full
