Notice :
·
If the water hardness level is less than 7 American degree of hardness, you do not need
any special softening salt. In this case the 'salt' control indicator lights up continually
(depending on model).
·
If your local hardness level exceeds 47 American degree of hardness, you should consider
getting a water softening device for your dishwasher. If you use stream water or rainwater,
you are advised to install filters.
·
If you move do not forget to adjust the water hardness level to suit your new neighborhood.
