Setting up the water softener

Important!

Only some models (DD24-H and DD60-H) have a built-in water softener.

Models with water softener are not currently available in New Zealand and Australia.

Determine the water hardness in your local area

Your local water company will be able to provide you with information. Identify the setting you require for your DishDrawer® from the water hardness table below. For example, if your water hardness is 500ppm, then the water softener setting on your DishDrawer® should be 4. Refer to the ‘Option adjustments’ section to adjust the water softener so that the setting corresponds to your water hardness.
