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 effectiveness. Your appliance is equipped with an
automatic limescale sensor. Configuring the level of water hardness is
therefore not necessary. The appliance automatically starts the regeneration
process at the right time. After regeneration, the next programme starts by
rinsing out the water softener by pumping water through it and draining
simultaneously.
For hygiene reasons, regeneration salt is also recommended for use with low
water hardness and
detergents.
Changing the unit of water hardness
The unit of water hardness can be set to French hardness (°fH) or German
