6/ FILLING WITH REGENERATING SALT
• Filling with regenerating salt (Fig 06)
Filling with salt is essential for providing a good wash without marks. It regenerates the resins that soften the water, by removing its lime content (unless the mains water supply is soft enough). Refer to “Setting the water sof- tener”.
Important :
Only use special dishwasher regener- ating salt. Do not use table salt or any type of cooking salt, this could damage your appli- ance’s water softener.
AUnscrew and remove the stopper on the salt tank.
BFill the tank with regenerating salt special- ly designed for dishwashers.
C Use the funnel supplied with your dish- washer. The first time, top up with water up to the rim of the tank.
• Regenerating salt indicator: |
| |
This illuminates when salt must be added. | Fig. 06 | |
After the tank has been filled with regenerat- | ||
| ||
ing salt, the indicator light may remain lit until |
| |
the salt has dissolved sufficiently, usually |
| |
after one cycle (of if the tank has not been |
| |
filled completely; for example, when first put- |
| |
ting the machine into service using the sam- |
| |
ple). |

Important |
|
If the salt overflows when filling the tank, to avoid oxidization of the tub it is advisable to remove the salt crystals or to run a Prewash programme.
