Softener adjustment
The efficiency of your dishwasher depends on the softness of the tap water. To ensure best efficiency, the dishwasher is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in the mains water supply. The efficiency will increase when the system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness level of your water supply you can use the test strip supplied or alternatively contact your local water board.
