Electrolux ESL424 Dishwasher

Before use  
Before using your dishwasher for the  
first time:  
Levels 4 and 5  
(adjustment on the machine)  
A
If your water is level 4 or 5,  
open the door and drill  
membrane (A) on the upper  
left-hand corner of the  
machine.  
1. Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply  
with the installation instructions.  
2. Remove all packaging from inside the appliance.  
3. Set the water softener.  
4. Pour a litre of water inside the salt container and then fill  
with salt.  
AA04  
5. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.  
With a water hardness of level 5 both adjustments must be  
made.  
Setting the water softener  
The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener designed to  
remove minerals and salts from the water supply, which would  
have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the  
appliance.  
Filling with salt  
Only use salt specifically designed for use in  
dishwashers.  
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in  
a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water  
softener.  
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete  
washing programmes (not the Rinse and Hold  
programme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty  
water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the  
bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may  
cause corrosion.  
The higher the content of these salts, the harder your water is.  
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales, Clarke,  
French degrees and PPM (parts per Million).  
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of  
the water in your area. Your local Water Authority can advise  
you on the hardness of the water in your area.  
The dishwasher is factory set at level 2.  
If this level is not suitable for your area the softener should be  
adjusted.

Do not worry if water over

filling with salt, this is quite

To adjust the water softener  
4. Replace the cap making  
sure that there is no trace  
of salt on the screw thread  
or on the gasket.  
Level 1  
If your water is "level 1" it is already soft and therefore there is  
no need to use salt.  
SR02  
5. Screw on the cap tightly.  
Levels 3 and 5  
(water softener adjustment)  
The salt container will require topping up periodically.  
If your water is level 3 or 5, proceed as follows:  
- slide out the lower basket and unscrew the cap of the salt  
container;  
The salt cap has a refill  
indicator window in the  
centre.  
A green float is clearly  
visible when there is salt  
inside the container, and  
almost disappears when the  
salt has finished reminding  
you to add salt.  
- turn the two-position  
selector anticlockwise from  
position - to position + with  
the aid of a blunt knife or  
screwdriver.
