Miele G 7835 operating instructions Water softener

Water softener

Before using the machine for the first time, the water softener should be programmed. The water needs to be softened to avoid calcium deposit buildup on the items being cleaned and in the machine itself.

To ensure a steady supply of soft water:

1.Make sure the water softener is programmed correctly.

2.The salt reservoir must be filled with reactivation salt.

–If the water hardness is below 70 ppm (4 gr/gal) the reservoir does not need to be filled. Once the machine has been set accordingly the reactivation will no longer occur and the salt refill warning will not appear.

The machine is factory set to a water hardness level of 340 ppm (19 gr/gal).

Your local water authority will advise you of the water hardness in your area.

For fluctuating levels (e.g. 140 to

310 ppm) set the water softener to the highest setting (in this example to 310 ppm).

Important: The built-in water softener has settings from 18 ppm to

1080 ppm.

For future servicing it is useful to make a note of your water hardness level.
