Adjusting the water softener

To prevent limescaling on the dishes and to the interior of the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft water.

This dishwasher is equipped with a water softener, where tap- water which is harder than 4 °d (german degree) is softened.

Adjust the water softener according to the table below for the water hardness level for your area.

Contact your local Water Authority to find the exact water hardness level for your area.

The water softener has 5 settings:
