Filling with special salt
Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really is salt.
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers. All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will damage the water softener. Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programmes (not the "Rinse and hold" programme). This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled, remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1.To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the salt container.
2.Pour 0,5 l of water inside the container (this is necessary only before filling with salt for the first time).
3.Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt until the container is full. Do not worry if water overflows from the unit when filling with salt, this is quite normal.
4.Replace the cap making sure that there is no trace of salt on the screw thread or on the gasket.
5.Screw on the cap tightly.

When this has been done, all that is required is to periodically top up the container with salt.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which will illuminate when the salt has finished.
