Water softener

Checking the water hardness

Every dishwasher is tested before leaving the factory. Any water remaining in the machine is from the final factory test and does not indicate that the machine has been used.

To achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs soft water. Hard water results in calcium deposits on dishware and in the dishwasher.

If your tap water hardness is above 4°d (4 gr/gal [US]), the water should be softened. This takes place automatically in the unit’s integrated water softener.

The water softener is set automatically to the local water hardness.

The water softener is designed for a water hardness of up to 70 °d.

If the hardness of your local supply is constantly lower than 4 °d (4 gr/gal [US]), you do not need to add water softener salt. The salt indicator turns off automatically.

Once the dishwasher has been installed and connected, run the "Rinse + Hold" program. After the program has finished, the water hardness measured by the sensor can be displayed.

This value is displayed in °d and may fluctuate depending on the water quality.

^Press the "Delay Start" button 6 times.

The "Delay Start" indicator flashes 6 times in intervals.

The measured water hardness is displayed in °d and is shown in the time display as the number after the p.
