The water softener is designed to remove minerals and salts from the water, which would have 
a detrimental or adverse effect on the operation of the appliance. 
The higher the content of these minerals and salts, the harder your water is. 
The softener should be adjusted according to the hardness of the water in your area. Your local Water Authority 
can advise you on the hardness of the water in your area.
