soft water, i.e. water which is low in lime, otherwise
limescale will be deposited on the utensils and interior
container. Tap water above 7° dH (1.2 mmol/l) must be
softened. The water is softened with special salt
(regeneration salt) in the water softening system
of the dishwasher. The setting and therefore the
required amount of salt depends on the degree of
hardness of your tap water (see following water
hardness table).
