The water-stop device protects against water damages caused by leaks on the fill

hose which could develop due to natural ageing of the hose.

In the water-stop system the leaking water fills the corrugated hose and activates a

stop valve which cuts off the water supply to the machine.

This fault is shown by a red sector on the window «A».

Would this occur, please refer to your Service Agent.

If the hose is not long enough for correct connection, it must be replaced with a longer

one. The hose can be obtained from your Service Agent.

WATER SOFTENER UNIT Depending on the source of the supply,

water contains varying amounts of limestone

and minerals which are deposited on the

dishes leaving whitish stains and marks.

The higher the level of these minerals

present in the water, the harder the water is.

The dishwasher is fitted with a water

softener unit which, through the use of

special regenerating salt, supplies

softened water for washing the dishes.

The degree of hardness of your water can

be obtained from your water supply

Regulating the water softener

The softener unit can treat water with a

hardness of up to 90°fH (French grading)

or 50°dH (German grading) through 6

The table below lists different degrees of

water hardness with the corresponding

setting for the softener unit.

* The water softener unit is set in the

factory at level 3, as this is suitable for

the majority of users.
