PreparatIon
3. Add 1 litre of water to salt reservoir of
your machine only in initial use.
4. Add salt to the salt compartment. To
speed up dissolution rate of salt in
water, stir it with a spoon.
C
You can put about 2 kg of
softening salt into the salt
reservoir.
5. Replace the lid and tighten it when the
reservoir is full.
C
You need to add salt right before
starting the machine. Thus, the
overflowing salty water will be
flushed immediately, preventing
the risk of corrosion in machine.
In cases where you would not
start washing immediately,
run your machine empty in the
shortest program.
C
Since different salt brands in the
market have different particle
sizes and since the water
hardness may vary, dissolution
of the salt in water may take
a couple of hours. Therefore,
Salt Indicator remains on for a
while after adding salt into the
machine.
If the hardness level of the supply water
is above 90 °dF or if you are using well
water, then it is recommended to use water
purification devices and special filters.
If the hardness level of the supply water is
below 13°dF, there is no need to use salt
in your dishwasher. If this is the case, “No
Salt Warning Indicator” (if any) illuminates
continuously on the panel of your machine.
If the water hardness level adjustment is
set to level 1, the “No salt warning indicator”
will illuminate continuously although it
is not necessary to use salt. If you use
salt under this condition, salt will not be
consumed and the Salt indicator will not
illuminate.
C
If you move your house, it is
necessary to readjust water
hardness level of your machine
by considering the information
given above according to the
hardness level of the supply
water in your new location.
Your machine will display the
most recently adjusted water
hardness level.
C
Adjust the water softness
level according to the "Water
hardness level instruction"
supplied with your machine.
Adding salt
C
Use only special softening salts
produced particularly for the
dishwashers in your machine.
1. First take the lower basket out to add
softening salt.
2. Turn the salt reservoir lid counter-
clockwise to open it (A).
