Salt …
Salt
Water hardness varies according to where you live. If hard
water were to enter your dishwasher, scaly incrustations
would form on your dishes.
Thanks to a water softener which uses special dishwasher
salt, the limescale in the water is eliminated.
Loading salt into the water softener
Always use salt which is intended for dishwasher use.
The salt container is situated
underneath the lower rack
and should be filled up as
follows:
1.
Pull out the lower rack
completely, unscrew and
remove the container cap.
2.
If it is the first time you load
the salt container, fill it up with
water.
3.
Put the funnel provided on
the hole and pour in approximately two kilos of salt. It is
normal if some water comes out of the container.
4.
Screw the cap back in place carefully.
The salt container should be filled up when the low
salt indicator light “E” flashes.
Once you have loaded the salt for the first time, it is normal
that the low salt indicator light stays on or flashes for about
5 consecutive cycles.
Warning:
To prevent rust from forming, load the salt just
before
beginning a wash cycle.
Adjusting the salt consumption
Your dishwasher can adjust its salt consumption according to
the hardness of the water used in
order to optimise and customise
the dishwasher’s salt consumption
to the minimum level necessary.
You can find out what the level of
water hardness in your area is
from the company that supplies the
water there.
To make the adjustment, follow
the instructions below:
1. unscrew the salt container cap
2. there is an arrow on the neck of the container (see figure
on the right); if necessary, turn the arrow anti-clockwise from
the “-” setting to the “+” setting according to the hardness
of the water supplied.
We recommend you make the adjustment according to the
following table:
