Salt
IMPORTANT:
ALWAYS USE DISHWASHER COMPATIBLE SALT.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the
water softener. The use of salt not designed for use in a dishwasher will invalidate your guarantee.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs to ensure any spilt salt does not lie
on the base of the appliance for an extended time as this can cause corrosion. The use of dishwasher salt in
the water softener eliminates the calcium deposits (limescale) that will form when used in hard water areas.
Filling the Salt Container
1
2
•
Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container (see picture 1).
•
To ensure correct functioning of the water softener, the container must be filled with 500 ml of water
before the salt is added.
•
Insert the salt funnel 06 into the container (see picture 2) and add sufficient
dishwasher salt until it reaches the rim of the container. Ensure that the container
is not overfilled to avoid spillage of salt onto the base of the appliance. It is normal
for some of the water to be displaced from the container during filling.
06
•
Remove the funnel and replace the cap.
•
The salt indicator light on the display panel will usually go out after the first complete wash cycle has
primed the water softener system.
