HOW TO USE AND OPERATE
8. Salt Filling
• Check the water hardness of your area. (Your water supplier will be able to inform you on the
hardness and hardness range of the water in your area.)
• Set the water hardness according to the setting method of the water softener.
• Remove Lower rack and unscrew the cap of salt container.
• Fill the salt in the salt container before using your dishwasher for the first time. Use a kind of
funnel for easy and clean filling. The salt container capacity is about 1.9 kg. (Use coarse salt or
regenerating salt intended for dishwasher.)
• After filling, wipe off any spilled salt to seal the cap properly.
• Screw the cap tightly to prevent the suds penetration that may cause the water softening troubles.
In order to provide satisfactory rinsing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e.,containing little
or no lime, otherwise water stains will be left behind on the dishes and interior containers.
If the tap water exceeds a certain level of hardness, it must be softened, i.e.,decalcified, so that it can
be used in the dishwasher.
This is achieved by adding a special salt to the water softener inside the dishwasher.
The water softener, that is the required amount of salt, is set up according to how hard the tap water is.
This model has a water softener to soften hard water.
So you should read these notes carefully for correct operation.
