How to set water hardness in order to always assure the best cleaning results
Water hardness should be set only before the first wash or if water hardness has been changed.
- Press and hold together Program and buttons for minimum 3 seconds.
- The current water hardness setting will be visible on the display.
- Press the Program button to increase setting. Value range goes from 1 to 7 (when the level reaches 7, the next
press of the start button will set the level back to 1).
- Wait 30 seconds (control panel switches off) or press Start/Resume button to save setting.
Water hardness level is factory set for medium-hard water (level 4).

When powder or gel detergent is used, regeneration salt must be added and water hardness level must be set
as indicated in the table on the right.
Also, when tablets which include salt functionality are used, regeneration salt still must be added.
