Miele G4302 SCU, Operating Instructions Manual

Page: 17 / 64

Before using the appliance for
the first time you require:
– Approx. 2 litres of water,
– Approx. 2 kg dishwasher salt*,
– Domestic dishwasher detergent*,
– Rinse aid* formulated for domestic
dishwashers.
* See "Optional accessories".
Every dishwasher is tested at the
factory.
There will be residual water in the
appliance from this test. It is not an
indication that it has been used
previously.
Filling the salt reservoir
If you use combination products
which have salt in them in your
dishwasher, you should still add salt
in order to achieve optimum results
and to ensure the continued
functioning of the water softener.
If the water in your area is very soft
and constantly
lower than
0.7 mmol/l (4 °d - German scale)
you do not need to add dishwasher
salt.
The water softener must, however,
still be programmed to correspond
to the water hardness level in your
area.
Important! Before filling the salt
reservoir with dishwasher salt for the
first time , you must fill it with
approx. 2 litres of water to enable
the salt to dissolve. Once the
dishwasher has been used, there is
always sufficient water in the
reservoir.
,
Inadvertently filling the salt
reservoir with powder or liquid
dishwasher detergent will damage
the water softener. Make sure you
have picked up the correct packet
of dishwasher salt before filling the
salt reservoir!
,
Only use special coarse grained
dishwasher salt for reactivation. Do
not use other salts such as cooking
salt, agricultural grade or gritting
salt. These may contain insoluble
additives which can impair the
functioning of the water softener.
