Before using your dishwasher for the

first time:

1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply

with the installation instructions

2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance

3. Set the water softener

4. Pour 1 litre of water inside the salt container and then fill

with salt

5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.

Setting 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 salts, the harder your water is.

Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, German

degrees, French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).

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 dishwasher is factory set at level 3.

If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be

adjusted.

If your water is level 1 it is already soft and therefore

there is no need to use salt.

With the setting of the water softener at level 1 the salt

indicator light on the control panel will always remain off.

Use salt from level 2 upwards.

From level 2 upwards, if salt refilling is necessary, the salt

indicator light will illuminate only in setting mode and at the

end of the washing programme. During the run of the

programme it will remain off.

To select a different level be sure that the

dishwasher is off and then proceed as follows:

1. Press Intensive 70° 80’ and Normal 65° programme push

buttons simultaneously.

2. While keeping the programme push buttons Intensive 70°

80’ and Normal 65° pressed switch on the dishwasher by

pressing the On/Off push button.

The On/Off indicator light comes on. At the same time, the

indicator lights of the Intensive 70° 80’ and Normal 65°

push buttons start flashing.

3. Press the Intensive 70° 80’ push button, the indicator light

of the Normal 65° push button turns off, while the indicator

light of the Intensive 70° 80’ push button remains fixed for

about 5 seconds and then starts to flash indicating the

current level

The current level is indicated by the number of flashes

made by the Intensive 70° 80’ indicator light, that

alternates 5 seconds off with a number of flashes, this

continues for about 60 seconds.

Example:

1 flash = level 1

2 flashes = level 2

3 flashes = level 3

4 flashes = level 4

5 flashes = level 5

4. To change the level, press the Intensive 70° 80’

programme push button. Each time the push button is

pressed the level changes.

Example:

If the current level is 3, by pressing the Intensive 70° 80’

programme push button once, level 4 is selected.

If the current level is 5, by pressing the Intensive 70° 80’

programme push button once, level 1 is selected.

The Intensive 70° 80’ indicator light remains off for about 5

seconds after which it starts flashing indicating the new

level selected.

5. To memorise the new level, switch off the dishwasher by

pressing the On/Off push button.
