To ensure a steady supply of soft water the water softener unit must always be:
1.correctly set for the water hardness level in your area.
2.the salt reservoir must be filled.
(If the water hardness level is below 4 gr/gal (4 °d - German scale) the water does not need to be softened.)
The machine is set at the factory for a water hardness level of 19 gr/gal (19°d).
If the water supply is harder or softer than this (including below 4 gr/gal or 4 °d) the factory setting will need to be changed. For settings see chart.
Your local water authority will advise you of the water hardness in your area.
For fluctuating levels (e.g. 8 - 17 gr/gal or 8 - 17 °d) set the water softener to the highest setting (in this example to 17 gr/gal or 17°d).
