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.

On initial start-up: Fill the dispenser
right up with water.
