Water hardness varies according to where you live. If the water in your home
is hard, without water softening, incrustations would form on your dishes. Your
dishwasher is fitted with a water softener which uses special salt to get rid of
limescale in the water.
Apart from making
you save time and
energy, your
dishwasher disinfects
your dishes, washing
them at a high
temperature.

To optimise consumption levels, try to use the
dishwasher with a full load only. If it takes quite
some time to fill up your dishwasher, use the soak
cycle to avoid the formation of bad odours and caked-
on food.
Select the most suitable wash cycle for the type of
load you have placed in the dishwasher. The choice of
wash cycle depends on the type of dishes to wash
and on how dirty they are. To select the right wash
cycle, please consult the wash cycle table on page 6.
