You can conveniently change all settings via the Home Connect app. Add special salt. Add rinse aid. Switch on the appliance. Setting the water softening system.
• Page 22: Water softening system Hard water leaves limescale on the tableware as well as the washing tank, and parts of the appliance may become blocked. To ensure good dishwashing results, you can treat the water with special salt and the water softening system. To avoid damage to the appliance, water with a hardness above 9 °E must be softened. To remove any marks from water or other residues, we recommend you operate the appliance without tableware before using it for the first time. You can find an overview of the water hardness values that can be selected here. You can find out how hard your water is from your local water company or by using a water hardness tester. Set the water hardness determined on your appliance. With a water hardness of 0 - 8 °E you can dispense with special salt for dishwashers and switch off the water softening system.
• Page 23: Water softening system To open the basic settings, press for 3 seconds. Only use special salt for dishwashers. Do not use salt tablets or table salt. The display shows Hxx. Add the special salt to the dispenser. Press repeatedly until the right water hardness has been set. The value H04 is set at the factory. You can use special salt to soften water. If the special salt refill indicator lights up, add special salt to the dispenser just before the programme starts. To avoid damage to the appliance, only switch off the water softening system in specific cases.
• Page 24: Rinse aid system The water hardness is 0 - 8 °E. You do not need to use special salt. The consumption values specified are laboratory measurements determined in accordance with the currently applicable standard using the Eco 50° programme. To open the basic settings, press for 3 seconds. The water softening system is switched off and the salt refill indicator is deactivated. For optimum drying results, use rinse aid. Only use rinse aid for domestic dishwashers. Regeneration of the water softening system takes place before the end of the main rinse cycle in all programmes. If the rinse aid refill indicator lights up, top up with rinse aid. Here you can find an overview of the maximum additional running time and consumption values during regeneration of the water softening system.
• Page 25: Detergent Add rinse aid up to the max mark. To save the settings, press for 3 seconds. If you find the rinse aid refill indicator irritating, you can switch the rinse aid system off. The function of rinse aid is limited with combined detergents. You will generally get better results using rinse aid. If rinse aid spills out, remove it from the tub. Spilled rinse aid can cause excessive frothing during the wash cycle. Only use detergents that are suitable for dishwashers. Both separate and combined detergents are suitable. For optimum washing and drying results, use separate detergent, adding special salt and rinse aid separately. Modern, powerful detergents mainly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes. A low setting adds less rinse aid during the wash cycle and reduces streaking on tableware. A higher setting adds more rinse aid during the wash cycle, reduces water marks, and improves the drying result.
• Page 26: Detergent is used to starch and remove protein. Oxygen-based bleaching agents are generally used to remove colored marks, e.g., tea or ketchup. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for each detergent. Suitable detergents are available online or from Customer Service. With powder and liquid detergent, the dosage can be individually adjusted to the level of soiling of the tableware. For better washing and drying results, please additionally use special salt and rinse aid. Combined detergents contain not only detergent but also rinse aid and salt replacement substances. According to manufacturers, combined detergents generally only function up to a water hardness of 26 °E. Powder detergent is recommended for shorter programmes, while liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for shorter programmes without PreRinse. Do not use detergent that could cause damage to the appliance or present a risk to health.
• Page 27: Tableware Only put glasses and china in the dishwasher if it is marked as dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer. Avoid damage to glass and tableware. The following tableware is not dishwasher-safe: items of cutlery and tableware made from wood, decorated glassware, antique and hand-crafted tableware, plastic parts not resistant to heat, tableware made from copper or tin, and tableware soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or paint. If you use powder detergent and select a program with pre-rinse, you can also add a little detergent to the interior door of the appliance. Only clean tableware that is suitable for dishwashers. Decorated glassware and parts made of aluminium or silver may fade or discolour with dishwashing. Delicate types of glass may turn cloudy after a few washing cycles. The chemical composition of detergent causes damage. Use a detergent marked by the manufacturer as gentle on tableware.
