In order to keep the softener, and hence the machine,
in perfect operating condition, it is necessary to
regenerate it regularly, based on use of the softener and
hardness of the water used. The table below shows the
quantity of softened water based on hardness in various
units of measure:
F°: French degree•
D°: German degree = 1.8 °F•
mg CaCO•

For further information on softener installation, start-
up and regeneration, refer to the instruction manual.

!
The build-up of lime scale deposits in the hydraulic
circuit and boiler inhibits thermal exchange, thus
compromising proper operation of the machine.
Heavy incrustation of the boiler may cause long
machine shutdowns and invalidate the warranty
in any case, because it indicates regeneration has
been neglected.
12.2 Regeneration request
If the function has
been enabled during the
programming, the system
measures the amount of
water used by the machine
and prompts the user for
regeneration ( ashing of "WATER
SOFTENER REGENERATION")
when the set amount has been
exceeded.
Once the regeneration has been carried out, the
counter must be reset.
Proceed as follows:
Insert the USB drive in the appropriate reader (• 7);
hold down the (• ) key of the navigator for
5 seconds: display of litres set and amount
of water used;
to reset the counter, hold down the same •
key () of the navigator for another 5
seconds;
when nished, remove the USB drive.•
