Operating Instructions

Adjusting the Water Softener

 

To prevent the build up of scale on dishes and in the dishwasher, the

 

dishes must be washed with soft, i.e. low lime content water. For this

 

reason the dishwasher is fitted with a water softener in which tap

 

water from a hardness of 4 °d (German degree) is softened with the aid

 

of special salt.

3

Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water

 

in your area.

0Adjust the water softener as stated in the table to the setting that cor- responds to the hardness of the water in your area. The water softener can be set manually using the water hardness switch and also electron- ically using the buttons on the control panel.
