Setting the water softener

To avoid the build-up of calcium de- posits on glassware and in the machine the water needs to be softened, where the supply hardness exceeds 107 ppm, (6°d).

To ensure a steady supply of soft water the water softener unit must always be:

1.correctly set

2.reactivated with "dishwasher" salt as soon as the k indicator light comes on.

The water softener must be set to corre- spond with the water hardness the first time the machine is used.

Your local water authority will advise you on the water hardness in your area.

Setting the WaterSoftener

The hardness range is divided into 18 "time" units ad a zero position. The ma- chine is set at the factory, correspond- ing to 339 ppm, (19°d).

If your water supply is harder or softer than this, then:

Use the touch pads on the control panel to change the time setting (see Table).
