Water softener
To avoid the build-up of calcium de-
posits on crockery and cutlery, and in
the dishwasher, the water needs to be
softened.
To ensure a steady supply of soft water
the built-in water softener must be:
1. correctly set (programmed) and
2. the salt reservoir must be filled with
dishwasher salt for reactivation.
(With very soft water (under 70 mg/l
(4° dH) no dishwasher salt needs to
be added).
The dishwasher is set at the factory to
operate up to a hardness level of
400 mg/l (22 °d German scale)
If your water hardness level is differ-
ent from this (including under 70
mg/l (4° dH)) the factory setting will
need to be changed according to
the chart on this page.
Your local water authority will advise
you on the water hardness of your area.
Where the hardness level fluctuates
(e.g. 140-310 mg/l, 8 - 17 °d German
scale) always take the highest value
(value 17 °d in this example)!
Should you require a service visit, it is
useful for the technician to know the
water hardness.
Please make a note of the water
