Operations
Salt storage
The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would
have a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. We recommend
using soft water for better results. Hard water contains impurities that can reduce the
washing performance. You will need to soften the water if the supplied water is harder
than 1.0 mmol/l (6 °d - German scale).
• To soften the water, you need dishwasher-specific salt and configuration of the water
hardness level according to your area. For more information about the water hardness
level in your area, contact your local water department.
• If the hardness level of the supplied water supply is unsteady, set the dishwasher to
the highest measurement. For example, if the water hardness reading ranges from
6.7 mmol/l to 9.0 mmol/l, set the dishwasher to 9.0 mmol/l.
• The dishwasher's default water hardness level is 3 (2.1-3.0 mmol/l). If this setting
matches the water hardness level in your area, you do not need to change it.
Adjusting salt consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on
the hardness of the water used. This is intended to optimise and customise the level of salt
consumption so that the salt consumption could be set proceed as follows:
1. Turn the dishwasher on.
2. Press and hold the AUTO (DW60A60**BB, DW60A60**IB model) or Program
(DW60A60**F*, DW60A60**U* model) cycle button for five seconds within 60 seconds
from turning on the dishwasher.
- When you entered the Setting mode, the display will show "0:00".
3. Press the Self Clean (DW60A60**BB, DW60A60**IB model) or Sanitize (DW60A60**F*,
DW60A60**U* model) button to select the water hardness level setting menu.
- The display shows the current setting. (Default setting: "H3")
4. Press the AUTO (DW60A60**BB, DW60A60**IB model) or Program (DW60A60**F*,
DW60A60**U* model) cycle button to change the setting.
