Adjustment of the water-softener
The dishwasher has an automatic water
softening device.
In all the models one must open the door to
have access to the adjustment;
– in some models you'll find it on the right top
hand side (fig. 4a),
– in some models you'll find it in the fixing ring
nut inside the tub (fig. 4b).
In each case see the tables below and try to
obtain the correspondence between the
reference index on the adjustment device and
the number referring to the level chosen.
