system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness level of your water supply you can use the test strip supplied or
alternatively contact your local water board.

2. Run water through the tap for one minute.
3. Hold the testing strip in water for one second.
4. Shake the testing strip after taking it out of the water
5. Wait for one minute
6. Check the number of marks on the strip to see the level of water hardness.
If the hardness of the water you use is above 60 dE or if you are using well water; you are recommended to use filter and
water refinement devices.

NOTE:
The washing effectiveness of your machine depends on the softness of the tap water. For this
reason, your machine is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in mains water
supply. The washing effectiveness will increase when the system is correctly set. To find out
the water hardness level of water in your area, contact your local water board or determine
water hardness level by using the test strip(if available).
If the hardness of the water you use is above 90 dF (French hardness) or if you are using well
water; you are recommended to use filter and water refinement devices.
Hardness level is adjusted to level 3 as a factory setting.
