Filling the salt reservoir
Please only use special coarse grained
reactivation salt
with granules of
approx. 1-4 mm. Do not use other types
of salt, e.g. table salt, agricultural or
gritting salt. These could contain
components which are insoluble in
water which could result in damage to
the water softener. If in doubt consult
your Miele Professional Department.
The salt reservoir holds approx. 5.5 lbs
(2.5 kg) of salt.
,
Inadvertently filling the salt
reservoir with cleaning agent will
damage the water softener.
Before filling the salt reservoir make
sure that you have picked up the
right packet of reactivation salt.
^
Remove the bottom basket from the
machine.
^
Unscrew the salt reservoir cap.
Before filling the salt reservoir with
reactivation salt for the first time fill it
with approx. 2 quarts (2.5 liters) of
water.
^
Place the funnel provided in place.
^
Fill carefully with salt, (as it is filled
water will run out).
