Degree of water hardness
Hard water will cause calcification within the
dishwasher. Also, more dishwasher deter-
gent will be required to clean the dishes. Soft
water increases foaming.
For this reason, the degree of hardness of
the water has to be determined and adjusted
even before the first use. You can determine
the water hardness from your water bill or
enquire about the degree of hardness at the
water supply company. The appliance is fac-
tory-set to a hardness level of “H3”.
