Softener Adjustment
The eciency of your dishwasher depends on the softness of the
tap water. To ensure best eciency, the dishwasher is equipped with
a system that reduces the hardness in the mains water supply. The
eciency will increase when the system is correctly set. To find out
the water hardness level of your water supply you can use the test
strip supplied or alternatively contact your local water board.
1. Open the testing strip (figure 5).
2. Run water through the tap for one minute.
3. Hold the testing strip in water for one second.
4. Remove from the water and shake the test strip to remove excess
water.
5. Wait for one minute.
6. Check the number of marks on the strip to see the level of water
hardness.
