Water Hardness Level Adjustment Table
If the hardness level of the water that you use is above 90 °dF (French standard for water hardness) or if
you are using well water, than it is recommended to use filter and water purification devices.
* If the hardness level of the water that you use is below 8°dF (French standard for water hardness), there
is no need to use salt in your dishwasher. If this is the case, “No Salt Warning Indicator” (if any) illuminates
continuously on the panel of your machine.
If the water hardness adjustment is set to level 1, the “No salt warning indicator” will illuminate continu-
ously although it is not necessary to use salt. If you use salt under this condition, salt will not be consumed
and the lamp will not illuminate.
Warning:
If you move your house, it is very important to make the water hardness level adjustment of your machine
according to the new location you move in order to preserve the washing efficiency.
If the water hardness level of your machine is adjusted previously, your machine will display the last water
hardness level adjustment. Adjust the new water hardness level of your machine on basis of the water
hardness level of your tap water.

Water Hardness & Regeneration Settings
Softening the water
Dishwashers require fairly soft water. If the hardness exceeds 6°dH lime scale will form on crockery. To
avoid this an automatic system adds a special salt to soften the water so that you obtain the best possible
cleaning and drying performance.
To find out the hardness level of your water contact your local water company, or use the enclosed test
strip to measure the water hardness:
