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. Place the funnel provided over the salt reservoir. Pour in
approximately 1.5kg of dishwasher salt depending on the brand
used.
3. Fill the reservoir with water until it overflows (first use only).
4. Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening and
then screw the cap on again firmly.
5. Run the “rapid” wash programme immediately (without any
crockery in the dishwasher) to remove any traces of salt from the
compartment.

• The add salt indicator on the control panel will illuminate when the reservoir is running out
of salt and requires refilling.
• The add salt 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 manufacturers instructions.
