Setting the water softener
The dishwasher is equipped with a water
softener designed to remove minerals and salts
from the water supply, which would have a
detrimental or adverse effect on the operation
of the appliance.
The softener should be adjusted according to
the hardness of the water in your area. Your
local Water Authority can advise you on the
hardness of the water in your area.
IMPORTANT!
The water softener must be set in both ways:
manually and electronically.
