warnings, both to the installer and the user, regarding:
• How to storage and keep the equipment before use:
- Place and room conditions
- Expiry datea
• For the Installer:
- Precautions for hygienic and electric safety
- Equipment description and characteristics
- Place and mode of installation
- Activation
- Programming
- Maintenance
- Procedures to follow after a period of inactivity of the equi-
pment
- Equipment disposal
- Solutions to some problems
• For the User:
- Salt refilling
- Instructions for the periodic rinsing of the resins
- Instructions for the care and cleaning of the equipment
- Health and hygiene warnings concerning the water produ-
ced by the equipment
The manual also gives you the guidelines to avoid an impro-
per use of the equipment and it specifies the installer and
the user’s responsibilities, therefore we suggest reading
through this manual before installing or using the water
softener .
If the dispositions are not followed, the manufacturer will de-
cline responsibility for any damage caused to people, things or
animals, and will consider the guarantee null and void.
1.2 KEEPING THE MANUAL
This manual is an integral part of the product. It must be kept
with care by the user and it must accompany the equip-
ment, even in case of a propriety transfer .
1.3 EQUIPMENT IDENTIFICATION
The equipment is identified by the numbers, written in bold on
the bottom left side of the softener’s label. You can find the
label on the salt container (fig. 3, L), on the package and on
the back of this manual.
1.4 DECLARATION OF COMPLIANCE
This product complies with the Community Regulations and natio-
nal laws applicable at the moment of its entrance on the market.
As it is not included in the IV ATTACHMENT present in the
2006/42/CE DIRECTIVE, the producer has taken all the ne-
ces-sary steps to self-certification to apply the CE branding on
the label on the salt container.
The declaration of compliance signed by the manufacturer is
available on request and online.
1.5 HYGIENIC SAFETY NORMS AND ICIM TESTING
This equipment has been tested by the ICIM Institute of Italian
Certificated for the Mechanic, licensed credited labora-tory,
certificated to the compliance with:
• Reg. n.1935/2004/CE products and componence contact
with elements according to the dispositions MOCA.
• D.M. n.174/2004 products and componence utilised in
contact with feed water..
It is NECESSARY to use original replacements for repairs and
maintenance, to guarantee hygienic safety.
1.6 RECOMMENDATIONS AND WARNINGS
For the Storage:
- Storage the water softener in a dry place
- The temperature in the storage must be between 4 - 35°C
- We recommend using the equipment within 24 months.
For the Installer:
We suggest installing the equipment after carefully reading
the instruction manual. Should complications arise, we sug-
gest asking your seller for assistance. The seller’s information
is written on the last page of this manual.
The manufacturers are not responsible for any damage or
harm that may derive by not following these precautions.
2) ABOUT THE EQUIPMENT
2.1 HOW DOES IT WORK?
The cationic resins in the softener’s tank transform calcium car-
bonate in sodium carbonate, which is water-soluble at the working
temperatures of both coffee makers and ice makers machines.
The transfer of sodium ions between the resins and water is
imperative to soften drinking water, but this process tends to
decline in proportion to the flow rate and the consumption of
water. For this reason, it is necessary to regenerate the
exhausted resins by making water and salt flow through them,
therefore returning them to their active state.
The resins gradually lose their cationic function, and con-
se-quently their efficiency, with each regeneration. We re-
com-mend replacing them after seven years of use.
To guarantee the correct functioning of the resins, it is im-
por-tant to periodically refill the salt in the brine tank (fig. 13).
The salt will be automatically taken, in the form of salt water,
during the regeneration cycle.
If there is no more salt in the brine tank, the water softener
will alert the user to refill the container with visual and/or
acoustic signals. In addition, during the regeneration, the wa-
ter softener will also perform resin disinfection to pre-vent the
formation of bacteria.
