time:
• Ensure that the electrical and water connections comply with the installation instructions
• Remove
all
packaging from inside the ap-
pliance
• Set the water softener level
Set 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 higher the content of these minerals and
salts, the harder your water
is.
Water hard-
ness
is
measured in equ
iva
lent scales, Ger-
man degrees
(dHO), French degrees (OT
H)
and mmol
/I
(millimol per litre - international
unit for the hardness of water).
