BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Preparing Your Dishwasher for the First Use
• Make sure the electricity and supply water specifications match the values indicated in the
installation instructions for the machine.
• Open the door of the dishwasher.
• Remove all packaging material inside the machine.
• Set the water softener level. (See: SETTING THE WATER, select models).
• Set the rinse aid dosage (See: FILLING THE RINSE-AID AND SETTING).
• Fill the salt container (See: FILLING THE DISHWASHER SALT DISPENSER, select models).
• Fill the rinse aid compartment. (See: FILLING THE RINSE AID AND SETTING).
• Place the dishes in accordance with the instructions in the user manual.
• Put an adequate amount of detergent into the detergent dispenser. (See: FILLING THE
DETERGENT).
• Make sure that the upper and lower impellers rotate freely.
• Select the program according to the amount of dirt (See: PROGRAM TABLE).
• Close the door of the dishwasher. (Push the baskets in. Then lift the door upwards and push
until it clicks into position).
CAUTION: To prevent injuries, ensure that your hand is not jammed or crushed between the
door and the appliance.
WARNING: While the appliance is running, if you open the door, all functions are automatically
interrupted.
CAUTION: There is a chance of hot steam will come out from the unit when you open the door of
your machine. Be aware of potential injuries.
Setting the Water Softener (SELECT MODELS)
• The dishwasher needs soft water for good cleaning results. Hard water results in a build-up of
calcium deposits on dishware and in the dishwasher. 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.
• Water supplies with a hardness level higher than 9 °f (French Water Hardness) need to be
softened.
• If the hardness level of the water that you use is above 9 °f (French standard for water hardness)
or if you are using well water, then it is recommended to use a filter and water purification
devices.
• The dishwasher is pre-programmed at the factory setting level 1 (inactive) of water hardness. If
this setting corresponds to the hardness of your water, you do not need to do anything more.
• The dishwasher must be programmed for the water hardness in your area.
• To find out the hardness level of water in your area, contact your local Water Board or Determine
the water hardness level with the help of the test strip provided.
WARNING: If you move to a different location, the level of water hardness will possibly be
different. It is essential to set again the water hardness in order to obtain optimum washing
efficiency.
