To prevent the build up of limescale on dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft water, i.e. water with a low lime content. 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.

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

 

in your area.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The water softener can be set manually using the water hardness

 

switch; it can also be set electronically using the buttons on the control
