To prevent the build up of scale on dishes and in the dishwasher, the
dishes must be washed with soft, i.e. low lime content water. For this
reason the dishwasher is fitted with a water softener in which tap
water from a hardness of 4 °d (German degree) is softened with the aid
of special salt.
3 Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water
in your area.
0 Adjust the water softener to the setting given in the table that corre-
sponds to the hardness of the water in the area where you live. The
water softener can be adjusted in 10 steps.
