18. WATER SOFTENER
UNIT
Depending on the source of the supply,
water
contains
limestone and minerals which are deposited
on the dishes leaving whitish stains and
marks. The higher the level of these
minerals present in the water, the harder
the water is.
The dishwasher is fitted with a water
softener unit which, through the use of
special regenerating salt, supplies softened
water for washing the dishes. The degree of
hardness of your water can be obtained
from your water supply company.
Regulating the water softener
The water softener can treat water with a
hardness level of up to 90 °fH (French grading)
or 50 °dH (German grading) through 8 settings.
The settings are listed in the table below,
with the relative mains water to be treated.
