Do not use table salt
as it contains insoluble substances which,
over time, may damage the water softening system.
•
When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container
before
starting the washing program
. In this way, the excess saline
solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged
presence of salt water inside the tank may lead to
corrosion
.
Be careful not to confuse the salt and detergent packages
; adding
detergent to the salt container will
damage
the water softening system.
ADJUSTING THE WATER SOFTENING SYSTEM
The dishwasher is equipped with an electronic device for adjusting the
water softening setting according to the hardness of the water.
Depending on model, the setting may be made
electronically
or by
means of a
selector switch
.
