B. Filling of the water softener container
NOTICE!
Only use a water softener (= dishwasher salt) which is suitable for dishwashers.
The water hardness depends on your place of residence. Hard water in a
dishwasher generates deposits of minerals and salts on your dishes and in the
appliance. The water softener removes minerals and salts from the water.
The water softener container is beneath the lower dish rack.
To fill it proceed as follows:
Only use a water softener (= dishwasher salt) which is
suitable for
dishwashers
. Other water softeners and salts, especially table salt, will damage
the water softener container.
The manufacturer shall not guarantee against and is not liable for any damage
caused by an unsuitable water softener.
Fill the container only shortly before you start a programme, otherwise spilled
residuals of the water softener may remain in the appliance and cause corrosion.
The control light on the control panel goes off after the first programme.
