Special salt
You can use special salt to soften
water.
Adding special salt
If the special salt refill indicator lights
up, add special salt to the dispenser
for special salt just before the pro-
gramme starts. The amount of spe-
cial salt required depends on the wa-
ter hardness: the higher the water
hardness, the greater the amount of
special salt required.
