Adjust the water softener
To prevent the build up of limescale on dishes and in the dishwasher,
the dishes must be washed with soft water, i.e. water with a low lime
content. For this reason the dishwasher is fitted with a water softener
in which tap water from a hardness of 4 °d (German degree) is softened
with the aid of special salt.
Your local water authority can advise you on the hardness of the water

in your area.
The water softener can be set manually using the water hardness
switch; it can also be set electronically using the buttons on the control
panel.
