dishes. Your dishwasher has a special water softening system to remove the
hardness of the tap water. Setting this system correctly will increase the washing

Board or Determine water hardness level by the help of test strip provided.
If you move to a different location, the level of water hardness will possibly
be different. It is essential to reset the water hardness in order to obtain
