Adjusting the Water Softener

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.
Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water

in the area where you live.
The water softener can be set manually using the water hardness
switch; it can also be set electronically using the buttons on the control
panel.
