The water is softened with salt (regeneration salt) in the water softening system of the dishwasher.4The setting and therefore the required amount of salt depends on the degree of hardness of your tap water (see table).4Setting4The amount of salt dispensed can be set from •:‹‹ to •:‹ˆ.4Salt is not required at the set value •:‹‹.4Water hardness table4Special salt5Using special salt5Always refill with special salt immediately before switching on the appliance. This ensures that overrun special salt solution is immediately washed out and does not corrode the rinsing tank.5As soon as the salt refill indicator ` on the fascia is lit, top up the salt.5* depending on model5Using detergents with salt component5If combined detergents with a salt component are used, salt can usually be omitted up to a water hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l). If the water hardness is over 21° dH, special salt must be used.5Switching off salt refill indicator/ water softening system5If the salt refill indicator ` is impaired (e.g. when using combined detergents containing salt component), it can be switched off.5Rinse aid6As soon as the rinse-aid refill indicator X is lit on the fascia, there is still a rinse-aid reserve of 1 – 2 rinsing processes. Refill with rinse aid.6The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses. Use only rinse aid for domestic dishwashers.6Combined detergents with rinse-aid component may be used up to a water hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l) only. If the water hardness is over 21° dH, rinse aid must be used.6Setting amount of rinse aid6The amount of rinse aid dispensed can be set from §:‹‹ to §:‹‡.6Do not change the amount of rinse aid unless streaks (select lower setting) or water stains (select higher setting) are left on the utensils.6Switching off rinse aid refill indicator6If the rinse-aid refill indicator X is impaired (e.g. when using combined detergents containing rinse aid component), it can be switched off.6The rinse aid refill indicator X is now switched off.6Utensils7Not suitable7Aluminium and silver parts have a tendency to discolour and fade during the wash cycle.
