Salt
Using salt
Always refill with salt immediately before
switching on the appliance. This ensures
that overrun salt solution is immediately
washed out and does not corrode the
rinsing tank.
Open the screw-type cap of the
compartment
26
.
Fill the tank with water (only required
when switching on the appliance for
the first time).
Then add dishwasher salt (not table
salt or tablets).
The water is displaced and runs out.
As soon as the salt refill indicator
5
on the fascia is lit, top up the salt.
