Set the water softener
The water softener removes minerals and salts from
the water supply. Minerals and salts can have bad ef-
fect on the operation of the appliance.
Water hardness is measured in equivalent scales:
• German degrees (dH°).
• French degrees (°TH). • mmol/l (millimol per litre - international unit for the
hardness of water).
• Clarke.
Adjust the water softener in to the water hardness in
your area. If necessary, contact your local water au-
thority.
