(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.
