DELIMING — Models LX40H and LX40C
Models LX40H and LX40C are equipped with an automatic delime cycle reminder. After the
preprogrammed number of cycles has expired, the control will indicate the delime request by
illuminating DELIME. At this point, you must either enter a delime cycle or reprogram the number of
cycles to terminate the DELIME indication.

beginning.

and power to the control will be turned off.

the deliming agent manufacturer.
