Operating Instructions

Filling with Special Salt for the Water Softener

1	Use only special salt for dishwashers. Never fill the salt container with
	any another type of salt (e.g. culinary salt) or dishwasher detergent.

This would irreparably damage the water softener.

Prior to filling with salt, please check each time that you really do have a packet of special salt in your hand.

Fill with special salt:

–Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time

–If a green mark can be seen under the lid of the special salt container, then there is sufficient special salt. If the green mark cannot be seen, you must refill the container with special salt.

3	If the water hardness in your area is less than 4 °d, you do not need to
	use special salt. The green mark will then not be visible. The function of

the appliance is not impaired.

0 1. Open the door, remove the lower rack.

2.Undo the lid on the salt container by turning it anticlockwise.

3.Only when using for the first time: fill the salt container with water.

4.Place the funnel supplied on the con- tainer opening.

Fill the container with special salt through the funnel; the capacity of

the container is approx. 1.0-1.5 kg depending on the grain size. Do not

overfill the salt container with special salt.

SALE SALT SALZ SEL

3	The water expelled by filling the salt container with special salt runs
	out of the salt container onto the base of the washing compartment.

This is not a cause for concern, the water will be pumped out at the start of the next wash programme.

5.Clean any salt remnants on the container opening.

6.Turn the lid clockwise to the stop, otherwise special salt will leak into the wash water, this could lead to poor wash results. To avoid this run a rinse programme after filling the salt container with special salt. This will wash away salt water and any salt crystals that have been spilt.
