First of all, in one simple action, you can test the lime content in your water using the testing strip
supplied with your dishwasher or you can contact your local water utility to find out how hard your
water is.
— Turn on the tap and let the water run for a few minutes.
— Fill a glass with water.
— Take the testing strip out of its casing and immerse it for 3 seconds.
— Wait 1 minute, shake the strip and look at the colours to find out how hard your water is.
