To achieve good cleaning results, the
dishwasher needs to operate with soft
water. Hard water results in a build-up
of calcium deposits on dishes and in
the dishwasher.
To ensure a steady supply of soft water:
1. the water softener unit must be
correctly programmed, and
2. the salt reservoir must be filled. If the
water hardness level is below 4 gr/gal
(70 ppm CaCO3) the reservoir does not
need to be filles with reactivation salt.
