Before using for the first time
Every dishwasher is tested before leaving the factory. Any water remaining in the machine is from the final factory test and does not indicate that the machine has been used.
Important: The salt container must be filled with 2 quarts (2 l) of water before adding salt for the first time so the salt can dissolve
properly. Water does not have to be added with subsequent refills.
Filling the salt container
Inadvertently filling the salt container with dishwashing detergent (including liquid detergent) will damage the water softener.
Only use water softener salt specially formulated for dishwashers. Other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the water softener.
If using "Tab" products which include salt, still add salt to the machine to achieve optimal cleaning results and ensure
Remove the lower basket from the wash cabinet and unscrew the salt container lid.
When opening the salt container, water will run out. Open the container only to refill salt.
Place the provided funnel over the salt container and carefully fill it with salt. The salt container holds approx. 4.4 lbs (2 kg) of salt, depending on the type of salt.
Clean any excess salt from the threads of the container opening. Screw the lid on firmly.
Immediately after each refill, run the " Express" program without a load (no "Turbo" function if available). This will remove any traces of salt from inside the wash cabinet.
