Before using for the first time  
Dishwasher salt  
If the water in your area is very soft  
and constantly lower than 0.9 mmol/l  
(5 °dH – German scale), you do not  
need to add dishwasher salt. The salt  
refill indicator will automatically switch  
off after the water hardness has been  
set accordingly (see “Settings – Water  
hardness”).  
In order to achieve good cleaning  
results, the dishwasher needs to  
operate with soft water. Hard water  
results in the build-up of calcium  
deposits on crockery and on the wash  
cabinet walls.  
Mains water with a water hardness level  
higher than 0.9 mmol/l (5 °dH – German  
scale) must be softened. This occurs  
automatically in the integrated water  
softener. The water softener is suitable  
for a water hardness level of up to  
12.6 mmol/l (70 °dH – German scale).  
Damage to the water softener  
from detergent.  
Detergent will damage the water  
softener.  
Do not fill the salt reservoir with  
powder or liquid detergent.  
In order to maintain the functions of  
the water softener, it must be  
reactivated regularly. Reactivation  
occurs automatically every ninth  
programme sequence. At the start of  
the next programme, an additional  
4.4 l of water is required for this  
process. Energy consumption  
increases by 0.015 kWh and the  
programme is extended by approx.  
3 minutes.  
Damage caused by using  
unsuitable salts.  
Some types of salt may contain  
insoluble components which can  
cause the water softener to  
malfunction.  
Only use special coarse-grained  
dishwasher salt or other pure kitchen  
salt for reactivation.  
The above only applies to the ECO  
programme at a water hardness of  
2.5 mmol/l (14 °dH – German scale).  
For other programmes and water  
hardness levels, the frequency of  
reactivation will differ.  
If you only ever use combination  
detergent products in your  
dishwasher, you can turn off both refill  
reminders if you wish (see “Settings –  
Refill reminders”).  
In order to be reactivated, the water  
softener requires dishwasher salt.  
Depending on the water hardness level  
(< 3.8 mmol/l, or < 21 °dH – German  
scale), dishwasher salt is not required if  
combination detergents are being used  
(see “Detergent – Powder detergent and  
detergent tabs”).  
Please make sure that if you stop  
using combination detergent  
products, you refill the dishwasher  
salt and rinse aid. Switch the refill  
reminders back on if required.
