18. WATER SOFTENER
UNIT
Depending on the source of the supply,
water contains varying amounts of
limestone and minerals which are deposited
on the dishes leaving whitish stains and
marks. The higher the level of these
minerals present in the water, the harder
the water is.
The dishwasher is fitted with a water
softener unit which, through the use of
special regenerating salt, supplies softened
water for washing the dishes. The degree of
hardness of your water can be obtained
from your water supply company.
Hardness of up to 90°fH (French grading) or
50°dH (German grading) through 6 different
settings. The table below lists different
degrees of water hardness with the
corresponding setting for the softener unit.

the majority of users.
According to the degree of hardness of your
water, regulate the softener unit in the
following way:
1. Turn on the dishwasher by pressing the
"ON/OFF" button.
2. Press the "PROGRAMME SELECTION"

time, and hold for 5 sec.
3. A short audio signal will sound and all
the indicator lights will flash for 5 sec.
4. The "PROGRAMME SELECTION"
indicator lights will come on to show
lime scale remover levels. If no indicator
lights come on, level "S0" will be set.
5. Press "PROGRAMME SELECTION"
again to select the desired level of lime
scale removal: every time you press the
button, the corresponding indicator light
will come on, as shown in the table
above (P1! S1, P2! S2,...) For level
"S0", all the lights will be out.
6. Turn off the dishwasher by holding
down the "ON/OFF" button for 3 sec.
to make the new setting effective.
