Miele G892SC operating instructions Filling the salt reservoir

Before using for the first time

Filling the salt reservoir

If your water hardness level is greater than 8 gr/gal, the salt reservoir should be filled before the first use and when the "Salt" indicator lights.

Only use water softener salt specially formulated for dishwashers. Other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the water softener.

The proper salt can be purchased from your Miele dealer or Miele’s Technical Service Department.

,Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir with dishwashing detergent will damage the water softener.

To fill the salt reservoir:

^Remove the lower basket.

^Unscrew and remove the salt reservoir cap located on the floor of the wash cabinet.

^Place the provided funnel over the salt reservoir.

The salt reservoir must be filled with 2 quarts (2 l) of water before adding salt for the first time. Water does not have to be added with subsequent refills.

^Carefully fill with salt. The salt reservoir holds approximately 4.5 lbs (2 kg) of salt. As it is filled, water will run out.

^Clean any excess salt from the threads of the reservoir opening.

^Screw the cap on firmly.

^If the dishwasher will not be used immediately, run the "Rinse & Hold" program. This will remove any traces of salt from inside the wash cabinet.
