Filling with salt
Caution! Only use salt specifically
designed for dishwasher use. All
other types of salt, especially
table salt, will damage the water
softener. Only fill with salt just
before starting one of the
complete washing programmes.
This will prevent any grains of
salt or salty water, which may
have been spilt, to remain on the
bottom of the appliance for any
period of time and cause
corrosion.
1. Open the appliance door and remove the
lower basket.
2. Unscrew the cap of the salt container by
turning it anticlockwise.
3. Pour 1 litre of water into the container (this
is necessary only before filling with salt for
the first time).
4. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt
until the container is full.
