Filling the dishwasher salt
Attention
Only use special dishwasher salt in your machine to
soften the water.
The manufacturer is not liable for damages resulting from
the use of the wrong salt type.
Do not use coarse grained salt. Small grains or powdered
salt is more easily soluble. Never use culinary or table
salt. These types of salt do not dissolve in water easily
and will damage the function of the softening device.
Remove the lower basket from the machine.
Open the screw-in cap of the salt container by turning it
counter clockwise (Fig. ).
When operating for the first time:
Pour 1 Litre of water into the salt container (Fig. ).
Pour the salt into the container with the aid of the supplied
salt funnel (Fig. ).
Pour in enough salt to
fill the container. The container holds approx. 2 kg.
Close the cap tightly.
Begin a washing programme immediately after filling the
salt container. The washing program prevents damage
to the machine which may be caused by any spilled salt
solution.
After the first washing cycle, the salt level indicator light
will go out.
