ensure that the electrical and water

Setting the water softener

The dishwasher is equipped with a water softener
designed to remove minerals and salts from the
water supply, which would have a detrimental or
adverse effect on the operation of the appliance.
The higher the content of these salts, the harder
your water is.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales,
for example German, French degrees, and parts
per million.

The softener should be adjusted according to the
hardness of the water in your area. Your local
Water Authority can advise you on the hardness of
the water in your area.

The dishwasher is factory set at level 2.

If this level is not suitable for your area the softener
should be adjusted.

To adjust the water softener:

With a screwdriver turn the selector on the upper
front corner of the machine until the level required
corresponds with the marker.
