Energy saving washing
This dishwasher is exceptionally
economical in the use of water and
electricity. For best results follow these
tips:
^
You may connect the commercial
dishwasher to a hot water line. This is
particularly suitable with
energy-saving water heating sources
such as solar energy systems.
If the hot water system is electrically
heated and if loads comprise
primarily glassware we recommend
connecting the appliance to the cold
water line.
^ For fastest possible wash times, with
slightly higher energy consumption,
connect the dishwasher to a hot
water source.
^ Make full use of the baskets without
overloading for the most economical
washing.
^ Choose a program that best suits the
degree of soiling and the type of
dishes being washed.
^
Use the Normal program for energy
saving dishwashing.
From the aspect of combined energy
and water consumption, this program
is the most efficient for washing
normally soiled dishes.
^
Observe the detergent
manufacturer's recommendations for
detergent dosage.
^
When using powder or gel detergent,
reduce the amount to
1
/
3
of the
normal amount when washing a small
load.

Water hardness
The display changes to the water

The dishwasher must be
programmed to exactly match the
hardness of your water.
Your local water authority can tell you
the water hardness level in your area.
Where the water hardness fluctuates
[e.g. 18 - 26 gr/gal (17 - 25 °d)],
always program the dishwasher to
the higher value [(in this example
26 gr/gal (25 °d)].
It is useful to know your water hardness
so that you can provide the service
technician with this information in the
event of any service calls.
Please note your water hardness below:
°d (gr/gal)
The water hardness factory setting is
15 °d (16 gr/gal).
^

Before using for the first time
17
Every dishwasher is tested before
leaving the factory. Any water
remaining in the machine is from the
final factory test and does not
indicate that the machine has been
used.
Filling the salt container
To achieve good cleaning results, the
dishwasher needs soft water (water that
is low in minerals). Hard water results in
calcium deposits on dishware and in
the dishwasher.
Therefore, tap water with a hardness of
4 °d (4 gr/gal) or more must be
softened. This takes place
automatically in the integrated water
softener. The water softener requires
reactivation salt. The water softener is
suitable for a water hardness of up to
36 °d (37 gr/gal).
See "Settings - Water hardness" for
setting the water softener.
If the hardness of your water is
always below 4 °d (4 gr/gal), you do
not need any salt.
However, you must still program
your dishwasher for your water
hardness.
,
Inadvertently filling the salt
container with dishwashing
detergent (including liquid
detergent) will damage the water
softener.
,
Only use water softener salt
specially formulated for
dishwashers. Other salts may
contain insoluble additives which
can impair the water softener.
Before using for the first time
18
^
Only open the door half way when
adding salt to avoid spilling it.
^ Press the button on the top of the salt
reservoir in the direction of the arrow.
The cover will pop open.
^
Open the funnel.
Do not fill water into the salt
reservoir!
^ Only add just enough salt to fill the
reservoir. Depending on the type of
salt, the reservoir will hold up to
approx. 2.2 lbs (1 kg).
Never fill with more than 2.2 lbs
(1 kg) of salt.
Displaced water may run out as the
reservoir is being filled.
^
Clean any excess salt from the filling
area and close the cover of the
reservoir.
^
Immediately run the Pre-wash
program without a load in order to
remove any traces of salt from the
chamber.
Before using for the first time
19
Refill salt indicator
^
Refill the salt reservoir as soon as the
F
Refill salt message is displayed.
^
Press the center button to confirm.
The Refill salt indicator goes out.
If a sufficiently high concentration of
salt has not yet formed, Refill salt may
continue to be displayed after adding
the salt.
In this case, confirm again with the
center button.
The Refill salt message is turned off if
you have programmed the dishwasher
to a water hardness below 4 °d
(4 gr/gal).
,
Immediately after each refill run
the Pre-wash or Short program
without a load in order to remove
any traces of salt from the cabinet.
