Before using for the first time
25
Add salt reminder
Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher
salt when the
Salt
indicator light
comes on. (If it comes on during a
programme, wait until the end of the
programme).
Risk of corrosion.
Immediately after filling the salt
reservoir, run the
Sensor wash
gentle
programme with the
Short
option and without any
crockery in the dishwasher to re-
move any traces of salt from the cab-
inet.
After the salt reservoir has been filled,
the refill indicator may still be lit up if
the salt concentration has not yet
reached the correct level. It will go out
when the correct concentration is
reached.
The refill reminder will be switched off if
you have programmed the dishwasher
for a water hardness below 0.9 mmol/l
(5 °d - German scale).
If you only ever use combination
products in your dishwasher, you can
switch both refill reminders for salt
and rinse aid off if you wish (see "Pro-
gramme options - Refill reminders").
If you switch to using detergent that
does not contain salt or rinse aid, it
is important to remember to add salt
and rinse aid and to switch the re-
minders back on.
