The water softener
The water softener removes minerals from
the water supply, which would have a
detrimental effect on the washing results
and on the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals,
the harder your water is. Water hardness is
measured in equivalent scales.
The water 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. It is important to set the right
level of the water softener to assure good
washing results.

Do not use salt at this level.
Whether you use a standard detergent
or multi-tabs (with or without salt), set
the proper water hardness level to
keep the salt refill indicator active.
Multi-tabs containing salt are not
effective enough to soften hard
water.
