Water Softener (Optional); Setting The Water Softener; Regeneration Display - Miele G 7836 CD Operating And Installation Instructions

To achieve good cleaning results, the
labwasher needs soft water. Hard tap
water results in calcium deposits on the
glassware and in the labwasher.
If your tap water hardness is above
4 gr/gal (values are in US gallons), the
water should be softened. This takes
place automatically in the unit's
integrated water softener.
To ensure a steady supply of soft water:
1. Make sure the water softener is
programmed correctly.
2. The salt reservoir must be filled with
reactivation salt.
The local water authority will advise you
on the water hardness in your area.
The machine is factory set to a water
hardness level of 19°d (20 gr/gal).
If the water hardness differs (even
under 4 gr/gal) the factory setting
must be adjusted via the electronic
control.
For fluctuating levels (e.g. 8 - 17 gr/gal
[8 - 17°d]) set the water softener to the
highest setting (in this example to
17 gr/gal).
Important! The built-in water
softener has settings from 1°d to
60°d.

Setting the water softener

Miele's Technical Service sets the local
water hardness when installing and
commissioning the machine. See
"Operating/Reactivation" in the
Programming manual.

Regeneration display

When the message REACTIVATION
appears in the display, the built-in water
softener cannot supply any more soft
water. It must be reactivated
immediately after the program has
ended with reactivation salt.
If this cannot be done immediately, and
further batches have been washed,
then the reactivation process must be
carried out twice in succession.
