Filling the salt reservoir
Important! Before filling the salt
reservoir with reactivation salt for the
first time, you must fill it with approx.
2 L of water to enable the salt to
dissolve.
Once the dishwasher has been used
for the first time, there is always
sufficient water in the reservoir.
Remove the lower basket from the
wash cabinet and unscrew the salt
reservoir cap.
Water or brine will run out of the
reservoir when the cap is removed.
It should therefore only be removed
in order to refill the salt reservoir.
Fill the reservoir with approx. 2 L of
water (first use only).
Place the provided funnel over the
salt reservoir and carefully fill with
reactivation salt until the reservoir is
full. The salt reservoir holds approx.
4 lbs (2 kg) of salt, depending on the
type of salt.
Clean any excess salt from around
the reservoir opening and then screw
the cap on again firmly.
Run the
Rinse & Hold
program
without a load immediately after
having filled the reservoir with salt in
order to dilute any brine which may
have overflowed and have it pumped
away.
Salt refill indicator
Fill the salt reservoir with reactivation
salt when
Refill salt
appears in the
display.
Confirm with
OK
.
The salt refill indicator will go out.
Danger of corrosion!
Run the
Rinse & Hold
program
without a load immediately after
having filled the reservoir with salt in
order to dissolve and wash away any
brine which may have overflowed.
After the salt reservoir has been filled,
the refill indicator may still appear in the
display if the salt concentration has not
yet reached the correct level. In this
case, still confirm the message again
with
OK
.
The salt refill indicator will be turned off
if you have programmed the dishwasher
for a water hardness below 5 gr/gal
(5 °d).
If you do not want the refill indicators
to appear, you can switch off both
refill indicators for salt and rinse aid
(see “Settings menu, Switching off the
refill reminders”).
