Water Softening System
Water softener automatically reduces water hardness, conse­
quently preventing scale buildup on heater, contributing also
to better cleaning efficiency. This system regenerates itself with
salt, therefore it is required to refill salt container when empty.
Frequency of regeneration depends on water hardness level
setting ­ regeneration takes place once per 6 Eco cycles with
water hardness level set to 3.
Regeneration process starts in final rinse and finishes in drying
phase, before cycle ends.
• Single regeneration consumes: ~3.5 L of water;
• Takes up to 5 additional minutes for the cycle;
• Consumes below 0.005 kWh of energy.
