First use

Before using your dishwasher for the
first time:
Ensure that the electrical and
water connections comply with the
installation instructions
Remove all packaging from inside
the appliance
Set the water softener
Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt
container and then fill with
dishwasher salt

tablets such as: '3 in 1', '4 in 1', '5
in 1' etc... set the 3 in 1 function
(see '3 in 1 function').
Set 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
minerals and salts, the harder your
water is.
Water hardness is measured in
equivalent scales, Clarke degrees,
French degrees (°TH) and mmol/l
(millimol per litre - international unit
for the hardness of water).
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 dial and electronically, using
one of the up and down scrolling
buttons on the control panel
Setting manually
The dishwasher is factory set at
position 2.
1. Open the dishwasher door.
2. Remove the lower basket from the
dishwasher.
3. Turn the water hardness dial to
position 1 or 2 (see table).
