8. THE WATER SOFTENER (SOFTWATER

TECHNOLOGY)

8.1 Introduction

The water contains harsh minerals. The

higher the content of these minerals the

harder the water is.

Hard water can reduce the effectiveness

of the detergent, reduce the softness of

fabrics and contribute towards shrinkage

and colour fading.

This appliance is equipped with a water

softener able to provide the right degree

of water softening to preserve the fabric

integrity, colour brightness and ensuring

good wash performances at low

temperature.

The water softener should be adjusted

according to the water hardness of your

inlet water. A correct setting allows to

achieve the best washing results and the

maximum garments protection.

To set the water softener correctly,

please refer to 'How to set the water
