DEGREES OF WATER HARDNESS
Water hardness is classified in so-called
“degrees” of hardness. Information on hard-
ness of the water in your area can be ob-
tained from the relevant water supply com-
pany, or from your local authority.
If the water hardness degree is medium or
high we suggest you to add a water soften-
er following always the manufacturer’s in-
structions.
When the degree of hardness is soft, read-
just the quantity of the detergent.
