Hard water leaves limescale on dishware as well as the
washing tank, and parts of the appliance may become
blocked.
To ensure good dishwashing results, you can treat the wa-
ter with special salt and the water softening system. To
avoid damage to the appliance, water with a hardness
above 9 °E must be softened.
