Filling with special dishwasher salt
Important:
!f the water hardness in your locality is below 4 “d, you need not fill your dish­
washer with special salt.
Important note:
Use only special dishwasher salt. Other types of salt (e.g. cooking salt) often
contain water-insoiuble components which choke the water softener and may
render it unsen/iceable.
Salt and detergent packs often look very much alike. Detergent inadvertently
poured into the salt container will damage the water softener. Each time you fill it
with special salt, make sure you are really holding a salt pack in your hand.
□ Open the door, and take out the lower basket.
□ Unscrew the cap of the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.
Only when using your dishwasher for the first time: Rll the salt container
with around 0.5 litre of water.
□ Fill the salt container with special salt. The container holds around 1.0-1.5 kg
depending on the salt grain size. Do not overfill the container.
