Observe the installation dimensions.

  • A location near the sink is recommended to allow for an easier connection of the dishwasher to water and sewage connections
  • At the back of one or both lateral cupboards, recesses of size 80 x 100 mm must be fitted for water, sewage and electrical connection (A).

If the dishwasher is installed in a corner, a minimum clearance of 50 mm between the opened door and surrounding cabinets must be respected.

Depending on your tap water hardness (hardness degree) use additional salt (water softener). Always consider instruction provided with the salt.

  • Remove the basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
  • Before first usage, pour 1.5 lt. of water in the salt container of your machine.

  • After filling the container, screw the cap tightly back clockwise.
  • Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (rapid program suggested). Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged by salty water which will void the warranty. Note: Depending on how fully the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the salt container is filled. IM_KDW 60121 A2 BI_170711_V04_HR.indb 23 11/7/17 8:47 am24 English Warning
  • Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers! All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the dishwasher. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any caused damages.
  • If salt has been spilled a soak or a rapid program should be run to remove the excess salt.
  • Only fill with salt right before starting one of the complete washing programs. This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
  • The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on. Adjusting salt consumption Fig.
