Salt refill reminder
At the end of a program, fill the salt compartment with salt when-
ever the message appears in the display.
Acknowledge the message with the
OK
button.
If no salt is added, the
symbol indicating low salt will appear beside
the program name on the right.
The low salt message will appear again at the end of each program.
Refill reminders can be displayed during the program cycle by press-
ing the
OK
button.
If there are no additional refill reminders, the
symbol in the display
will go out after a few seconds once the salt has been refilled.
The salt refill reminder is deactivated if the dishwasher is set to a
water hardness of 0 - 0.7 mmol/l (0 - 4 °dH German scale).
Appliance lockdown due to low salt
If the low salt reminder is ignored for several program cycles and the
salt is not refilled, the appliance will be locked to prevent further use
until more salt is added.

happens:
