16 I Warranty details
The water quality limits/parameters listed in the water quality
table (table 7, page 16) are considered acceptable, and
generally Australian and New Zealand suburban water supplies
fall within these limits/parameters.
Where uncertainty exists concerning water quality, intending
appliance users should seek a water analysis from the water
supplying authority. In cases where it is established that the
water supply does not meet the quality requirements of the
water quality table, the Bosch warranty would not apply.
