water softening

Hard, calcareous water leaves
limescale residues on the dishes and
the rinse aid container and can clog
parts of the appliance. For good
washing results, you can soften water
with the water softener and softening
salt. To prevent damage to the device,
water with a hardness of more than 7
°dH must be softened.
