Water Softener

If the water hardness in your area

is under 150 ppm (mg/l) you

should not activate the built-in

water softener with salt. This

could lead to problems including

cloudy glassware.

The water hardness in your area can

be obtained from your local water

company or by using a test kit that

can be purchased from the Miele

Parts Department (part no. 0014619).

If your water hardness is above

150 ppm (mg/l), the water should

be softened to avoid the build up of

calcium deposits on dishes, cutlery

and in the dishwasher.

The dishwasher is factory set for a hard-

ness level of 20 - 70 ppm (mg/l). If your

water is harder or softer, the setting will

need to be adjusted.

To ensure a steady supply of soft-

ened water, the built in water sof-

tener must be:

1. Correctly set.

2. Reactivated with salt when depleted.

Where the water hardness fluctuates

(e.g. 140 - 310 ppm (mg/l)) always set

the machine to the lower value

(140 ppm (mg/l) in this example).
