Filling with special salt
Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The
accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water
softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really
is salt.
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.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the washing programmes.
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been
spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of
time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of
the salt container.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the container
(this is necessary only before filling with
salt for the first time).
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt
until the container is full.
Do not worry if water overflows from the
unit when filling with salt, this is quite
normal.
4. Replace the cap making sure that there is
no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the cap tightly.
