If combined detergents with a salt 
component are used, special salt can 
usually be omitted up to a water 
hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 
26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l). If the water 
hardness is over 21° dH, salt must 
be used.

If the use of combined detergents 
with a salt component impairs the 
low salt indicator P on the control 
panel or the text on the display 
window at the top @ (enough salt 
for x rinse cycles), the displays can 
be switched off.
Proceed as described under “Setting 
water softening system” and set the 
value to 0-8. The water softening 
system and salt refill indicator 
are now switched off.
