Frequently Asked Questions - SÖDERBODA 106.027.22 IKEA

How do I adjust the water softener?

Close the door, turn on the appliance. Within 60 seconds, press and hold the Delay start button for more than 5 seconds. Use the program buttons to select the level suitable for your water hardness (H1 to H6). Wait 5 seconds or press On/Off to confirm.

How do I fill the salt reservoir?

Use only special dishwasher coarse salt. Open the reservoir at the bottom of the appliance, pour 1.5 kg of salt, then fill with water to the brim. Close the cap tightly and immediately run a program to avoid corrosion.

Why won't my dishwasher start?

Check that the door is properly closed, the plug is connected, and the fuse has not blown. If a delay start is programmed, cancel it or wait for the countdown to finish. The appliance may also be performing a water softener regeneration (up to 5 minutes).

What should I do if the appliance shows error code E1?

Error code E1 indicates too long fill time. Check that the water tap is open, the pressure is sufficient, and the inlet hose filter is not clogged.

How do I use all-in-one tablets?

Place the tablet in the detergent dispenser. For optimal results with hard water, we recommend adding salt and rinse aid even with all-in-one tablets. If you stop using tablets, adjust the water softener and refill salt/rinse aid.

How do I clean the spray arms?

Remove the baskets. Unscrew the upper arm (central nut) and pull the lower arm upwards. Rinse under running water and unclog the holes with a toothpick. Reassemble in reverse order.

Drying results are poor, what can I do?

Activate the Automatic door opening or Extra dry option. Check the rinse aid level (adjustable from d1 to d5). Always use rinse aid, even with tablets.

How do I activate the child lock?

Press the Child lock button for 3 seconds. The corresponding light turns on. This locks all buttons except On/Off. To deactivate, repeat the operation.

What to do in case of prolonged absence?

Run an empty cycle, unplug the appliance, turn off the water supply and leave the door slightly open to avoid odors and preserve the seals.

How do I get a spare part?

Contact IKEA after-sales service. Have the article number (8 digits) and serial number (8 digits) located on the rating plate inside the door.

The water softener

The water softener removes minerals from the water supply, which would have a detrimental effect on the washing results and on the appliance.

The higher the content of these minerals, the harder your water is. Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales.

The water softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area. It is important to set the right level of the water softener to assure good washing results.

Water hardness

German degrees (°dH)	French degrees (°fH)	mmol/l	Clarke degrees	Water softener level	Salt consumption (gram/cycle)	Regeneration frequency (Every X cycles)

Hints and tips

General

The following hints will ensure optimal cleaning and drying results in daily use and also help to protect the environment.

• Remove larger residues of food from the dishes into the waste bin.
• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. When needed, use the prewash programme (if available) or select a programme with a prewash phase.
• When loading the appliance, make sure that the dishes can be completely reached and washed by the water released from the spray arm nozzles. Make sure that items do not touch or cover each other.
• You can use dishwasher detergent, rinse aid and salt separately or you can use the multi-tablets (e.g. "3 in 1", "4 in 1", "All in 1"). Follow the instructions written on the packaging.
• Select the programme according to the type of load and degree of soil. With the ECO programme you have the most efficient use of water and energy consumption for crockery and cutlery with normal soil.

Using salt, rinse aid and detergent

- Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent for dishwasher. Other products can cause damage to the appliance.

• In areas with hard and very hard water we recommend to use plain dishwasher detergent (powder, gel, tablets containing no additional agents), rinse aid and salt separately for optimal cleaning and drying results.
• At least once a month run the appliance with the use of appliance cleaner which is particularly suitable for this purpose.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short programmes. To prevent detergent residues on the tableware, we recommend that you use the tablets with long programmes.
• Do not use more than the correct quantity of detergent. Refer to the instructions on the detergent packaging.

What to do if you want to stop using multi-tablets

Before you start to use separately detergent, salt and rinse aid do the following procedure.

1. Set the highest level of the water softener.
2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid containers are full.
3. Start the shortest programme with a rinsing phase. Do not add detergent and do not load the baskets.
4. When the programme is completed, adjust the water softener according to the water hardness in your area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse aid.
6. Activate the rinse aid empty notification.

Loading the baskets

Refer to examples of the load of the baskets on page 16.

• Only use the appliance to wash items that are dishwasher-safe.
• Do not put in the appliance items made of wood, aluminium, pewter and copper.
• Do not put in the appliance items that can absorb water (sponges, household cloths).
• Remove remaining food from the items.
• Soak items with remaining burned food in water.
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and pans) with the opening down.
• Make sure that cutlery and dishes do not bond together. Mix spoons with other cutlery. • Make sure that glasses do not touch each other.
• Put small items in the cutlery basket.
• Put light items in the upper basket. Make sure that the items do not move.

Before starting a programme

Make sure that:

• The filters are clean and correctly installed.
• The cap of the salt container is tight. • The spray arms are not clogged.
• There is dishwasher salt and rinse aid (unless you use multi-tablets).
• The position of the items in the baskets is correct.
• The programme is applicable for the type of load and for the degree of soil.
• The correct quantity of detergent is used.
