Salt
The hardness of the water varies depending upon
where you live. If hard water is used in the
dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and
utensils.
This appliance is equipped with a special softener
that uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate
limescale and minerals from the water.
Loading the salt into the dishwasher
Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.
The salt container is located beneath the lower
rack and should be filled as follows:
• Remove the lower rack and then unscrew and
remove the cap from the salt container
(Figure 6).
(If you are filling the container for the first time,
fill it with ½ litre of water before adding the salt.)
• Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the
hole and introduce about 1.2kg of salt. It is
normal for a small amount of water to come out
of the salt container (Figure 7).
• Carefully screw the cap back on.
NOTE: The low salt indicator light
on the
control panel may stay illuminated until the salt has
fully dissolved which may take between 2–6 days.
To prevent the formation of rust, load the salt
just before beginning a wash cycle.
Adjusting salt consumption
The dishwasher is designed to allow you to adjust
the amount of salt consumed, based on the
hardness of the water in your area. This is intended
to optimise and customise the level of salt
consumption so that it remains at a minimum.
To adjust salt consumption, proceed as follows:
• Unscrew the cap from the salt container. The salt
adjuster has an arrow on it (Figure 8).
• If necessary, rotate the salt adjuster in an anti-
clockwise direction from the '–' setting towards
the '+' sign, based on the hardness of the water
being used.
Initially set the salt adjuster to the lowest setting '–'.
If cutlery and glasses are smeary after a wash turn
the adjuster towards '+' .
When the low salt indicator light
illuminates on
the control panel refill the salt container just before
the next wash programme. This is to avoid
undissolved salt from laying in the bottom of the
machine.
