ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM

User instructions

Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time, may damage the water softening system.

When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container before starting the washing program. In this way, the excess saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.

Be careful not to confuse the salt and detergent packages; adding detergent to the salt container will damage the water softening system.

ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM

NOTA: for the setting below to be possible, a washing program other than the soak program must be set.

Press the PROGRAM DELAY button (12) and keep it pressed until the preset value appears followed by a full stop (normally 3.). Release the button then press it again in succession to display the value required, referring to the table.

The 6 setting levels available will appear in this order: 3., 4., 5., 0., 1., 2..

When the value required appears on the diplay, release the button; after 5 seconds the system automatically returns to setting of the program delay, and the setting will be made with the chosen value.

N.B.: the display shows the water hardness setting and the program delay. The dot (.) after the number indicates that the water hardness setting is being displayed. If the dot (.) does not appear, the program delay is being displayed.
