Adjusting the water softener
Hard water contains a high quantity of minerals that can
cause damage to the appliance and bad washing results.
The water softener neutralises these minerals.
The dishwasher salt keeps the water softener clean and in
good conditions. Refer to the table to adjust the water
softener to the right level. It makes sure that the water
softener uses the correct quantity of dishwasher salt and
water.
You must adjust the water softener manually and
electronically.
