water which is harder than 4 °d (german degree) is softened.
Adjust the water softener according to the table below for the
water hardness level for your area.
Contact your local Water Authority to find the
exact water hardness level for your area.
The water softener has 5 settings:
1) german degree of measurement for the water hardness
2) millimol, internationel unit for water hardness
*) factory setting
In the following settings the dishwasher must be switched off and all programmes completed.
See chapter ”Using the appliance” for information on how to complete the programme.
