    6 Water
     softener
    In  order to rinse dishes and glasses
    satisfactorily , the dishwasher requires soft
    water , i.e. containing little or no lime,
    otherwise water stains will be left behind on crockery and glasses, etc. If the tap water exceeds a certain level of hardness, it must be softened, i.e.decalcified, so that it can be used in the 
    dishwasher. This is achieved by adding a special salt to the water softener inside the dishwasher . 
    The water softener , that is the required
    amount of salt, is set up according to howhard the tap water is. Setting  up the water softener
    Determine  the level of hardness of your
    tap water . Your local water company or
    service agent can help you with this.
    Identify setting from the following water hardness table.
    Water  hardness table
    Close the door .
    Hold down programme buttonB and
    press 
    1 main switch until the digital
    display illuminates, then release the buttons. The LED for button 
    B  flashes and
    the digital display displays the factory setting 
    .
    T o change the setting,
    press programme button 
    B  .
    Each time the button is pressed, the set value increases by 1; after 
    , the
    setting goes back to 
    .
    Switch of f the main switch 1. The
    chosen setting has now been stored.
    Filling  the salt dispenser
    Salt  must always be filled before the
    appliance is switched on, so that excess salt solution is immediately flushed away to prevent corrosion.
    Open the screw-type cap of the compartment 
    24 .
    Before using the appliance for the first time, pour about 1 litre of water in the salt container .
    Then refill with salt  (not cooking salt)
    until the salt container is full (max. 1.5 kg). When you refill the salt,water is being displaced and drains of f.
          
    						
    							en7
    The LOW SAL
    T indicator 
    8 on the front 
    panel will light up initially but will extinguish again after a short period when the salt solution has become suf ficiently
    concentrated. When the control is set to 
    , it is not
    necessary to fill up with salt as none will be consumed while the dishwasher is operating. The LOW SAL T indicator is
    switched of f. If the control is set between
     and , then salt must be added
    to the dispenser .
    Warning
    Do not pour detergent into the container for special salt. This would destroy the water softener .
    Salt  refill indicator
    As  soon as the salt refill indicator 
    8 is lit
    on the control panel, refill with salt immediately before the next rinse cycle. Depending on the washing frequency and the hardness setting, the regeneration salt may not have to be topped up for severalmonths. Adding
     rinse aid
    The  rinse aid is required for stain-free
    utensils and clear glasses.Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers.
    Open the cover on the rinse-aid dispenser 
    29 . To do this, press the
    mark (1
    ) on the cover and
    simultaneously lift the cover on the control plate (2
    ).
    Carefully pour in the rinse aid to just below the edge of the filler opening.
    Close the lid, ensuring that you hear it snap closed.
    T o prevent excessive foam formation
    during the next rinse cycle, remove anyrinse aid which has run over with a cloth.

    Adjusting
     the amount of
    rinse-aid The  amount of rinse-aid added to the
    water can be varied by adjusting the stepless control. The rinse-aid control has been set to ”4” in the factory .
    Do not alter the setting of the rinse-aidcontrol unless streaks (turn knob towards ”–”) or water marks (turn knob towards ”+”) are left on the dishes.
