Adjust 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 degrees) 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.
	The water softener has 4 settings.
