Water hardness

The display changes to the water hardness setting.

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.

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

The dishwasher must be programmed to correspond to the water hardness in your area.

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.

See "Settings - Water hardness" for more information.
