Testing Strip; Adjusting Salt Consumption - Nabo GSI 1210 Gebrauchsanweisung

the transparent section on the salt compartment cap. There is sufficient salt if the transparent section
is green. Salt has to be added if the transparent section is not green

Testing strip

The washing effectiveness of your machine depends on the softness of the tap water. For this reason, your ma-
chine is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in mains water supply. The washing effectiveness will
increase when the system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness level of water in your area, contact your
local water board or determine water hardness level by using the test strip(if available).
