Before using your dishwasher for the first
time:
• Ensure that the electrical and water
connections comply with the installa-
tion instructions
• Remove all packaging from inside the
appliance

tablets such as: ''3 in 1'', ''4 in 1'', ''5
in 1'' etc... set the Multitab function.
(See ''Multitab function'').
Set 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 ef-
fect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals
and salts, the harder your water is. Water
hardness is measured in equivalent
scales, German degrees (dH°), French
degrees (°TH) and mmol/l (millimol per
litre - international unit for the hardness
of water).
The softener should be adjusted accord-
ing to the hardness of the water in your
area. Your local Water Authority can ad-
vise you on the hardness of the water in
your area.
The water softener must be set in
two ways: manually, using the water
hardness dial and electronically.
