Filling with salt
Only use salt specifically designed for use
in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically
designed for use in a dishwasher, especially
table salt, will damage the water softener.
Only fill 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 spilled, remaining on
the bottom of the machine for any period of
time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt
container.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container (this is
necessary only before filling with salt for the
first time).
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the
container is full.
Do not worry if water over flows from the unit when
filling with salt, this is quite normal.
4. Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace
of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the cap tightly.
The salt container will require topping up periodically.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on
the control panel which comes on when the salt has
finished.
The salt indicator light on the control panel
can remain illuminated for 2-6 hours after
the salt has been replenished, assuming the
dishwasher remains switched on. If you are
using salts that take longer to dissolve then
this can take longer. The function of the
machine is not affected.
