B. Loading the Salt into the Softener
Always use salt intended for using with dishwasher.
NOTE:
If your model has no water softener, you may skip this section
WATER SOFTENER
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will
form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses salts specifi cally designed to eliminate lime
and minerals from the water.
The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be fi lled as follows:
Attention!
≐
Only use salt specifi cally designed for use in dishwashers! All other types of salt not specifi cally designed
for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. In case of damages caused
by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any caused
damages.
≐
Only fi ll with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes.
≐
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been split, remaining on the bottom of
the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
≐
After the fi rst wash cycle the control panel light expires.
A. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
1
B. If you are fi lling the container for the fi rst time, fi ll 2/3 of its volume with water (around 500ml).
2
C. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of salt. It is normal for a small
amount of water to come out of the salt container.
D. Carefully screw the cap back on.
E. Usually, the salt warning light will be off in 2-6 days after the salt container is fi lled with salt.
NOTE:
1. The salt container must be refi lled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on. Though
the salt container is fi lled enough, the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully dissolve.
If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some models), you can judge when to load the
salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher had run (see the following schema).
2. If there are spills of the salt, a soak program could be run to wipe them out.
