							Water softener
Every dishwasher is tested before
leaving the factory. Any water
remaining in the machine is from the
final factory test and does not
indicate that the machine has been
used.
To achieve good cleaning results, the
dishwasher needs soft water. Hard
water results in calcium deposits on
dishware and in the dishwasher.
If your tap water hardness is above 4°d
(4 gr/gal [US]), the water should be
softened. This takes place
automatically in the unit’s integrated
water softener.
The water softener sets automatically to
the local water hardness.
If the hardness of your local supply
is constantly lower than 4°d (4 gr/gal
[US]),you donot need to add water
softener salt.
The Insufficient salt message will
turn off automatically.
For best results use salt when using
3 in 1 tabs (these tabs contain
detergent, rinse aid and water
softener salt). When selecting the
3 in 1 detergent setting, the salt
dosage is reduced to
1/3to1/4.
Checking the water hardness
The water hardness measured by the
sensor can be displayed.
See SettingsJ- Water hardness.
External water softener
If the dishwasher is connected to an
external water softener unit which is
regenerated with salt, the water
hadness must still be set in the
dishwasher.
^Set the dishwasher to the water
hardness of the external water
softener. If you dont know the value,
set the dishwasher water hardness to
8°d (8 gr/gal [US]). See SettingsJ,
External water softener.

can impair the water softener.
When opening the salt container,
water will run out. Open the
container only to refill salt.
Important:The salt container must
be filled with 2 quarts (2 l) of water
before adding salt for the first
time. Water does not have to be

detergent will damage the reservoir.
Only pour rinse aid formulated for
residential dishwashers into the
reservoir.

aid dosage can be adjusted. See

damage to the dishwasher.
^Scrape food from dishes before

all surfaces. Do not place dishes or
cutlery inside other pieces.
^

glasses should be placed upside
down in the baskets.
^
To ensure good water coverage,
tall, narrow and hollow items,
i.e. vases or champagne glasses,
should be placed in the center of the
basket rather than in the corners.
^
Concave based items such as mugs
or bowls, should be placed at an
angle so that water does not pool.^The spray arms must not be blocked
by items that are too tall or hang
through the baskets. Check
clearance by manually rotating the
spray arms.
