5 How to use
Water hardness & regeneration settings
The dishwasher requires lime free water. Hard water leaves watermarks on your
dishes. Your dishwasher has a special water softening system to remove the
hardness of the tap water. Setting this system correctly will increase the washing
effectiveness.
To find out the hardness level of water in your area, contact your local Water
Board or Determine water hardness level by the help of test strip provided.
If you move to a different location, the level of water hardness will possibly
be different. It is essential to reset the water hardness in order to obtain
optimum washing efficiency.

7. Press the On/Off key to turn off your machine.
Water Hardness Level Adjustment Table
If the hardness level of the water that you use is above 80 °dF (French standard
for water hardness) or if you are using well water, then it is recommended to use
filter and water purification devices.
If the hardness level of the water that you use is below 9°dF (French standard
for water hardness), there is no need to use salt in your dishwasher. If this is the
case, “No Salt Warning Indicator” (if any) illuminates continuously on the panel of
your machine.
If the water hardness adjustment is set to level 1, the “No salt warning indicator”
will illuminate continuously although it is not necessary to use salt. If you use salt
under this condition, salt will not be consumed and the lamp will not illuminate.

Adding Dishwasher Salt
Only use special pelletized dishwasher
salt in your machine to soften the hard
water. Never use other types of salts
including table salt, animal feeding salt,
sea salt, culinary salt. These types of
salt do not dissolve in water easily and
will damage your appliance beyond
repair.
Detergent use
Any brand of powder, gel and tablet
detergents that have been designed for
household dishwashers, may be used.
Keep detergents in a cool and dry
place and out of the reach of children.
Detergent must be added to the
container before each use.
When you run the dishwasher, the
Water softener will be full of water.
Therefore, adding softening salt
should always be done immediately
before you start the dishwasher.
Detergent overdose may cause
scratches on your dishes and there
may be traces of detergent left in your
machine.
Three types of detergent are available
•
Phosphate and containing
chlorine.

Caution : Only fill with salt just before
starting one of the complete washing
programmes to prevent any grains of
salt causing corrosion. Ensure 1 Litre
of water has been added. You can put
approximately 2 kg softening salt in the
Water softener.
New compact powders are generally
phosphate-free. As phosphates have
water softening properties, we suggest
you add salt to the salt container even
if the hardness of your water is as low
as a 6 clarke degrees.
To fill the container with softening
salt, remove the lower rack first and
unscrew the cap of the water softener
turning anti clockwise.
In hard water areas if a phosphate free
detergent is used, white marks on the
dishes and glasses may be observed.
It may be prevented by increasing the
amount of detergent.
Using the funnel provided will make
filling easier.
Detergents without chlorine have less
bleaching effect. Coloured stains may
not be completely removed. This may

Three-in-one: These products contain
detergent, rinse aid and water-
softening salt.
Two-in-one: These products contain
detergent and either rinse aid or water-
softening salt.
In general, you will obtain satisfactory
results from combined detergents only
under specific usage conditions. These
detergents contain predetermined
amounts of rinse aid and/or softening
salt. This means that you cannot adjust
the amount of water-softening salt
and rinse aid required to suit the water
hardness level in your home.

stuck on the dishes also fill the small
container (B) up to 5cm³. Depending
on the degree of soiling and the
water hardness in your area it may be
necessary to add more detergent.
Important warning
Should you encounter a problem that
has previously never occured after you
start using these detergents, contact
the detergent manufacturer directly.
You will find contact details on the
