11.3 Special salt
You can use special salt to soften
water.
Adding special salt
If the special salt refill indicator lights
up, add special salt to the dispenser
for special salt just before the pro-
gramme starts. The consumption of
special salt depends on the water
hardness. The higher the water hard-
ness, the greater the consumption of
special salt.
ATTENTION!
Detergent may damage the water
softening system.
▶
Only fill the dispenser of the water
softening system with special dish-
washer salt.
Special salt for dishwashers can
damage the tub due to corrosion.
▶
To make sure that any special salt
that escapes is washed out of the
tub, add the special salt to the dis-
penser for special salt immediately
before the programme starts.
1.
Unscrew the lid of the dispenser
for special salt and remove.
2.
On initial start-up: Fill the dispenser
right up with water.
3.
Note:
Only use special salt for
dishwashers.
Do not use salt tablets.
Do not use table salt.
Add the special salt to the dis-
penser.
Fill the dispenser right up with spe-
cial salt. The water in the dis-
penser is displaced and forced
out.
4.
Place the lid back on the dis-
penser and turn to close.
11.4 Switching off the water
softening system
If you find the special salt refill indic-
ator irritating, e.g. when using com-
bined detergents with salt replace-
ment substances, you can switch the
indicator off.
Note
To avoid damage to the appliance,
only switch off the water softening
system in the following cases:
¡
The water hardness is max. 26 °E
and you are using a combined de-
tergent with salt replacement sub-
stances. According to the manu-
facturers, combined detergents
with salt replacement substances
can generally only be used up to a
water hardness of 26 °E without
adding special salt.
