Setting the salt quantity
The dishwasher is designed so that the amount of salt can be adjusted according to
the hardness of the water being used. This is to optimise and individually adjust salt
consumption. To adjust the salt consumption, please proceed as follows.
1. Close the door and switch on the appliance.
2. Within 60 seconds after switching on the appliance, press and hold the programme
button for more than 5 seconds to start the water softener setting mode.
3. Press the programme button again to select the correct setting according to local
conditions; the setting changes in the following order: H1 > H2 > H3 >H4 > H5 >
H6.
4. If you do not press any button within five seconds or if you press the power button
to exit the setting mode, the setting will be saved by the programme.
