penser with the flap device, add the liquid
detergents with a dosing ball.
Water hardness
If the water hardness in your area is high or
moderate, we recommend that you use a water
softener for washing machines. In areas where
the water hardness is soft it is not necessary to
use a water softener.
To know the water hardness in your area, con-
tact your local water authority.
Obey the instructions that you find on the pack-
aging of the products.
Equivalent scales measure the water hardness:
• German degrees (°dH).
• French degrees (°TH).
• mmol/l (millimol for each litre - international
unit for the hardness of water).
• Clarke degrees.
