The water softener
The water softener removes minerals from
the water supply, which would have a
detrimental effect on the washing results
and on the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals,
the harder your water is. Water hardness
is measured in equivalent scales.

your area. Your local water authority can
advise you on the hardness of the water in
your area. It is important to set the right

washing results.
