Miele Understanding Dishwasher Salt Light Issues and Salt Reservoir Management

Page 19

Water softener

Salt indicator.

When the salt reservoir is empty, the

8 Salt” indicator lamp will light, not- ifying you that the reservoir should be refilled with reactivation salt.

After the reservoir has been filled, the water softener is automatically reacti- vated the next time the dishwasher is run.

The “Softener” indicator lamp illumi- nates during this process.

Note:

If your water is very soft (below

7 gr/gal), the salt indicator lamp will stay on. In this case the reservoir should not be filled with salt. The indica- tor lamp will remain lit and should be disregarded or bypassed.

The “8 Salt” indicator lamp has also been designed for future program up- dates (PC). See the “After Sales Ser- vice” section for further details.

Bypassing the Salt indicator lamp.

In order to bypass the salt indicator lamp, you will need a screwdriver and needle nose pliers.

Remove the salt reservoir cap.

Looking into the salt reservoir, you will see the top of the float chamber on the right hand side b.

Using a screwdriver, carefully pivot the float chamber towards the center of the reservoir.

Using the needle nose pliers, first pull the cap c off of the float cham- ber, then remove the float d.

Replace the float chamber cap, push the chamber back into its up- right position, and replace the salt reservoir cap. The indicator lamp should now remain off.
