+Water softening system/Special salt
To ensure good washing results,
the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. containing low amounts of lime, otherwise white limescale will be deposited on the utensils and inner container.
Tap water above 1.2 mmol/l must be softened. The water is softened with special salt (regeneration
salt) in the water softening system of the dishwasher.
The setting and therefore the required amount of salt
depends on the degree of hardness of your tap water (see table).
