Water softener

For good cleaning results, the dish

-

washer needs to operate with soft wa

-

ter. Hard water results in the build up of

calcium deposits on dishes and in the

dishwasher.

If water hardness is above 8 gr/gal

(140 ppm), the water should be soft

-

ened. This takes place automatically in

the integrated water softener.

–

The water softener must be filled with

dishwasher salt for reactivation.

–

The dishwasher must be pro

-

grammed to correspond to the water

hardness in your area.

– Your local water authority will be able

to advise you of the water hardness

level in your area.

If your tap water is consistently lower

than 8 gr/gal (= 140 ppm) do not add

dishwasher salt. However, the dish-

washer must still be programmed to

correspond to the water hardness in

your area.

Where water hardness fluctuates e.g.

between 9 - 17 gr/gal (160 - 310 ppm),

always program the dishwasher to the

higher value (in this example 17 gr/gal /

310 ppm)!

If there is a fault it will help the service

technician to know the hardness of your

tap water.

Programming and setting the

water hardness level

The water hardness of your water sup

-

ply must be programmed into the dish

-

washer using the buttons on the control

panel.

The water hardness selector in the

wash cabinet must also be set to the

water hardness in your area.

Programming the water hardness

The programmed water hardness can

be checked and adjusted using the

buttons on the control panel. The indi

-

cators will light after each button is

pressed (n) on the control panel.

While programming, the water hardness

can be cancelled by turning off the

dishwasher with the “Off” button.

The water hardness is preset to

1 - 5 gr/gal (20 - 90 ppm).
