LOADING THE SALT INTO THE SOFTENER
Always use salt intended for use with dishwasher.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
ATTENTION
• 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. In case of
damages caused by the use of unsuitable salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is
liable for any caused damages.
• Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs. This will prevent any
grains of salt or salty water, which may have been split, remaining of the bottom of the machine for
any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
• After the first wash cycle the control panel light expires.
