Filling in the salt
If the hardness of your mains water corresponds to the
device’s index value
(see chapter “Setting up the
softening system”), you do not need to fill in the salt
because the operation will not use any salt. If the set
values
to are displayed, salt must be added.
During the rinse cycle the salt is being washed
automatically from the salt compartment into the
softening system where it will dissolve the lime.
The lime-containing solution drains from the
dishwasher. Afterwards the softening system is ready
to be loaded again.
This regeneration cycle will only work if the salt is
dissolved in water.
After switching on the device, lack of salt is indicated
by the display “Refill Salt”. (This display will no longer
appear once you have set the softening system to the
value
.)
Open the screw-type cap of the compartment
25
.
Before operating the device for the first time you
must pour 1 litre of water into the salt compartment.
Then you must refill salt (not table salt) using the
supplied salt filling aid until the salt compartment is
full (max 1.5 kg). When you refill the salt, water is being
displaced and drains off. Therefore the refilling must
take place shortly before switching on the device. (In
order to avoid corrosion). This way the overflowing salt
solution is diluted and flushed immediately. Then clean
the filling area of salt residues and screw the
compartment lid back on without tilting the lid.
As soon as a sufficiently high salt solution has formed
the display “Refill Salt” will disappear.
If you do not want to wait until the display disappears
but you want to wash immediately, confirm the refilling
of the salt using the button M/OK
2
.
If you do not want to refill the salt now you can skip the
display “Refill Salt” by pressing the button M/OK
2
.
Warning
Do not pour detergent into the container for special
salt. This would destroy the water softener.
Depending on the washing frequency and the hardness
setting, the regeneration salt may not have to be
topped up for several months.
Filling with rinse aid
Rinse aid is used in washing mode to ensure that
glasses are sparkling and utensils are stain-free.
When the appliance is switched on, low rinse aid level
is indicated by ”Refill rinse aid”. You can add rinse aid
either when the appliance door is completely open or –
for a more comfortable posture – when the door is half
open.
Open the rinse aid dispenser
30
by pressing the
button on the dispenser cover and open the cover.
When the door is half open, also pull out the hinged
filling aid until it locks into position.
Fill in the rinse aid slowly and take care not to
overfill. The right amount is indicated by the level
indicator at the compartment not being illuminated
when the door is fully opened and by the display
“Refill Rinse Aid” no longer being lit.
Close the lid of the compartment until it audibly clicks
into place. If necessary, the filling aid will be
re-inserted automatically.
If you want to fill in the rinse aid at a later time you can
skip the display “Refill Rinse Aid” by pressing the
button M/OK
2
.
If necessary, you can change the amount of rinse aid
that is added during the operation. In order to do this,
select the option “Rinse Aid Amount” as described
in the chapter “Device Set-up” under the heading
“Options/Basic Settings”.
