Hard water leaves a white coating on dishes and the dishwasher. Checking water hardness Water hardness is specified using German degrees of water hardness (°dH), French degrees of water hardness (°fH), English degrees of water hardness (°eH) or millimoles per litre (mmol/l).
2. Basic settings The first time the dishwasher is switched on, it is important that you choose the right settings to ensure good dishwashing results. See page 20.
