adding salt
If the water in your area is hard, deposits will form on your dishes
and utensils. This appliance contains a salt reservoir for you to
reduce the hardness of the water.
Please follow the steps below to pour the salt into the salt reservoir
and it must be set to correspond to the water hardness level in your
area.
1. Remove the lower basket and unscrew the reservoir cap.
2. Fill the reservoir with approximately 500ml of water (first
use only).
3. Place the funnel provided over the salt reservoir.
4. Pour in approximately 1.2kg of dishwasher salt depending
on the brand used.
5. Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening
and then screw the cap on again firmly.
6. Run the “Rapid” wash programme immediately (without
any crockery in the dishwasher) to remove any traces of
salt from the compartment.
• Salt refill warning indicator will illuminate when
the reservoir is running out of salt and requires
refilling.
• The salt refill warning indicator will cease to
illuminate within a few days, depending on how
quickly the salt dissolves.
• If you decide to use a detergent tablet, you
may not need to add salt, this depends
upon the water hardness in your area and
the type of tablet being used. Check with
your water supplier and the detergent tablet
manufacturer’s instructions.
