Programación de la lavadora de platos
Sistema de ablandamiento de agua
Su lavadora de platos requiere agua blanda para asegurar los resultados apropiados de lavado y está
equipada con un sistema de ablandamiento de agua interno. No obstante, si usted cuenta con un
sistema de ablandamiento de agua doméstico, no necesitará utilizar el sistema interno proporcionado.
A fin de que el sistema de ablandamiento de agua funcione en forma adecuada, deberá usar sal ablan-
dadora de agua para lavadoras de platos. La cantidad de sal dispensada puede programarse desde
"H:00" hasta "H:07". No se requiere sal en H:00 (esta es la programación preconfigurada de fábrica -
consulte la tabla a la derecha). La cantidad requerida de sal depende del nivel de dureza del agua cor-
riente de su hogar (Tabla 1).

Your water hardness level directly impacts your dishwasher's performance. Hard water will increase spotting and reduce detergent perfor-
mance. Some dishwasher models are equipped with a water softener that uses a special salt to adjust the water hardness to obtain optimal
performance. The dishwasher salt is added to the salt chamber located under the lower dishwasher rack. The amount of salt that is dispensed
is based on your home water hardness. The home water hardness can be determined by using the water hardness test strip included in your
manual set (or from your local hardware store). The dishwasher water softener setting must be adjusted to match your water hardness.
Only use salt designed for automatic dishwashers. Never use household water softener salt or table salt.
Follow the instructions below for the included test strip (If purchasing a different test strip, follow manufacturers instructions).
Step 1 - Run the water at the kitchen sink for 5 minutes.
Step 2 - Dip the end of the test strip with the colored squares into the tap water for 1 second and shake off excess water.
Step 3 - After one minute, compare the test strip to the chart below and determine the Dishwasher Water Softener setting.
Step 4 - Adjust the dishwasher Water Softener setting. Consult your Use and Care manual for details.
Step 5 - If required, add salt to the dishwasher salt chamber as shown.
