water and will indicate when descaling
is necessary, Your local water authority
can tell you the hardness of your tap
water or you can measure the hardness
'ourself using the enclosed test strip,
If the water hardness is greater than
40 gr/ga! (700 ppm), the water must
be mixed in equal parts with
non-carbonated mineral water to
prevent excessive limescale
