Water softening system / special salt en
Water softening system / special salt
Water softening system / special salt
To ensure good rinsing results, the dishwasher
requires soft water, i.e. water which is low in lime,
otherwise limescale will be deposited on the utensils
and interior container. Tap water above 7° dH
(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 following
water hardness table).
