DISHWASHER WITH INCORPORATED CONTINUOUS WATER SOFTENER
Dishwashers with incorporated continuous water softener have a continuous softener in the water circuit. By
means of special resins, this device removes the calcareous substances from the feed water, supplying decal-
cified water for washing.
To activate the continuous water softener, set the parameter
(in the
family) to the value
.
For the continuous softener to work properly the resins must be regenerated periodically with a frequency
depending on the hardness of the inlet water, the number of wash cycles carried out and the max. hardness
set with the parameter
(in the
family).
Unlike conventional water softeners, this continuous softener does not require machine stops for regenerating
the resins.
To regenerate the resins it is necessary to put coarse salt in the special container located in the dishwasher.
In particular, the salt container must be filled when the dishwasher is started the first time and whenever the
message
appears on the display and an audible alarm sounds. The salt container holds up to 1.5
kg of salt
WARNING:
Use only coarse salt with a NaCl purity grade of 99.8 %. The use of salt with a lower purity grade may
cause the sale container filter to clog and the water softener to malfunction.
WARNING:
The message
may appear, for several rinse, tank filling or wash cycles, even after replen-
ishing the salt, as the salt must circulate in the entire system. This, however, does not affect correct
dishwasher operation.
The number of regeneration cycles performed can be checked by consulting the parameter
in the
family of counters.
only counts regeneration cycles carried out with the salt container adequately filled; there is another
counter,
(in the
family) that indicates the number of regeneration cycles done without salt.
If the parameter SrU is set to the value10, according to the factory setting, the water softener outlet water
hardness can vary between 3°f - 10 °f / 1.7 °d - 5.6 °d / 2.1 °e - 7 °e.
AUTONOMY OF THE FULL SALT CONTAINER ACCORDING TO THE CHANGE IN INLET WATER HARD-
NESS
(*) Considering a rinse time according to the factory settings.
Maximum outlet water hardness can be modified by setting the
value. The outlet water hardness can be
modified from the value of 4° f to 14° f.
NB: To save the new water hardness value, in addition to the normal parameter modification and saving oper-
ations it is necessary to disconnect and reconnect the machine's main power supply by means of the main
switch on the external board.
Water softener operation can be checked by forcing the regeneration of resins, without waiting for the outlet
water hardness to reach the set max. value (
).
