Filling with regeneration salt
– When the supply of regeneration salt is exhausted, the refill indicator
flashes.
A
Open the appliance door and pull out or re-
move the lower basket.
A
Open the salt reservoir by pulling on the grip.
A
Open the cover as far as it will go. At the same
time, a funnel to aid the filling of the salt reser-
voir appears.
A
Before using for the first time, fill with approx.
1.5 l water. Then fill with 1 kg standard regen-
eration salt. The drain pump may come on
briefly.
A
Wipe away excess salt on the edge of the salt
reservoir.
A
Close the cover and engage the latch.
A
Run the
programme to protect the appliance from corrosion from any
excess salt.
Approximate consumption of regeneration salt:
Never fill the salt reservoir with detergent!
On initial use, the salt refill indicator can remain illuminated for sev-
eral wash cycles. Stir the salt solution well using a wooden spoon. The
indicator will go out when the salt concentration in the reservoir is
evenly distributed (after running about 10 wash programme).
