Water softener

To avoid scale deposits on the dishes and in the dishwasher, the dishes must be washed with soft water, i.e. water with a low lime content. The dishwasher therefore has a built-in water softener, in which tap water with a hardness of 4°d (German degree) and harder is softened with the aid of special salt.

Your water supplier will be able to inform you about the hardness and

 

hardness range 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

 

panel.
