Set the device to the current water hardness before us-

ing it in an area with a different water hardness (e.g. af-

ter a move).

Note

Your water board or municipal utilities authority can pro-

vide information on hardness of tap water.

The water hardness setting is stored until a new setting

(e.g. after a move) is made. The device is set to the

highest water hardness (level IV) in the factory. The de-

vice indicates the set water hardness with flash pulses.

Water hardness levels and flash pulses

Note

The anti-calcification effect of the decalcification car-

tridge is activated as soon as the device is filled with wa-

ter and put into operation. Lime in the water is absorbed

by the granulate in the decalcification cartridge. Addi-

tional descaling is not required.

Note

The granulate in the cartridge can discolour on contact

with water due to the mineral content in the water, which

is no cause for concern and has no negative effects on

the device, cleaning work or the functionality of the car-

tridge.

Note

Do not pause for longer than 15 seconds when setting

as the device will otherwise be set automatically to the

last selected water hardness or the highest water hard-

ness set during initial start-up.

1. Make sure that the device is switched off.

2. Press the ON/OFF button and hold it for 6 seconds.
