Water hardness
The built-in water softener removes limescale from the water, enabling problem-free
cleaning. Automatic regeneration occurs at regular intervals, thus guaranteeing its ef-
fectiveness. After regeneration, the next programme starts by rinsing out the water soft-
ener by pumping water through it and draining simultaneously.
For hygiene reasons, regeneration salt is also recommended for use with low water
hardness and 3in1 detergents.
The water hardness setting should agree with the local conditions. The water hardness
level is set at «Hardness level 2» at the factory. There are 5 water hardness levels
available.
