Before using for the first time

Water softener

To achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher needs soft water (water that is low in minerals). Hard water results in calcium deposits on dishware and in the dishwasher.

If your tap water hardness is above 4 °d (4 gr/gal) the water should be softened. The built-in water softener is designed for this purpose. The water softener is suitable for a water hardness up to

70 °d (73 gr/gal).

If using "Tab" detergent products you do not need to add salt, depending on the water hardness ￿ 22 gr/gal (21 °d) (see "Detergents").

The dishwasher must be correctly programmed to match the hardness of your water.

Your local water authority will be able to advise you of the exact water hardness level in your area.

If the hardness of your local supply is constantly lower than 4 °d (4 gr/gal), you do not need to add water softener salt. However the water hardness level must still be programmed.

In areas where the water hardness fluctuates (e.g. 37-50 °d [39-52 gr/gal]) always program the machine to the higher value (in this example 50 °d [52 gr/gal]).

If there is a fault, it will help the service technician to know the hardness of your local water supply.

Please note your water hardness below:

°d (gr/gal)

The water hardness was programmed at 1 °d (1 gr/gal) by factory default.
