Salt indicator

Before using for the first time

￿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.

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.First fill the container with approx. 2 liters of water.

￿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 run the Express program without a load (no Turbo function) to remove any traces of salt or brine from the wash cabinet.

Salt indicator

￿When the Salt indicator comes on, refill the salt container.

The refill salt message may continue to be displayed for a short time after salt has been added. It will go out as soon as a sufficiently high concentration of salt has formed.

The Insufficient salt message is turned off if you have programmed the dishwasher to a water hardness below 4 °d (4 gr/gal).

￿Immediately run the Express program without a load (no Turbo function) to remove any traces of salt or brine from the wash cabinet.
