ADJUSTING THE 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 are left 
behind on crockery and glasses etc.
If the tap water exceeds a certain 
level of hardness, it must be       
softened, ie. decalcified, so that it 
can be used in the dishwasher.
● The water Softener should be   
properly adjusted to optimise salt 
consumption and for best washing 
results.
● In order to ensure that the correct 
amount of salt is being used to   
regenerate the water softener, the 
water hardness adjuster needs to be 
set accordingly. To set this correctly 
the hardness of your water needs to 
be ascertained. Find on the table the 
level corresponding to the hardness 
of your water and the required    
adjustments or contact your local 
Water company to find the exact 
water hardness level for your area.

Press and hold the Economy 50˚   
button and set the mains switch  1 
to ON, before releasing the         
programme button again.
The indicator light for the Economy 
50˚ button flashes, as does the figure 
4 in the numerical display.
The latter represents the value that 
was pre-set in the factory.
To change the setting:
-
Press the Economy 50˚  button  3 .
Every time the button is pressed, the     
figure increases by one. After reaching 
7
, the display starts at 
0
again.
-
Set the mains switch  1 to OFF. The 
new setting is stored in the  appliances 
memory.
Approx. 4 litres
of water are
required for
regenerating
the water
softening system. The overall water
consumption per load can therefore be
increased by between 0 and a maximum of
4 litres according to the water hardness
setting.
