Preparation
If the hardness level of the water that you use
is above 90°dF (French standard for water
hardness) or if you are using well water, than
it is recommended to use filter and water
purification devices.If the hardness level of the
water that you use is below 7°dH, there is no
need to use salt in your dishwasher. In this case,
the Salt Indicator light on the control panel of
your dishwasher will light continuously.
If the water hardness is set to level 1, the Salt
Indicator will light continuously although it is
not necessary to use salt. If you use salt under
this condition, salt will not be consumed and the
lamp will not illuminate.

to set the water hardness
level of your dishwasher again
according to the information
above, depending on the water
hardness of the place you have
moved to.
If the water hardness level
of your machine is adjusted
previously, your machine will
display the most recent hardness
level adjustment.
