tener, the other is by using detergent.

 

 

 

The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes and utensils. The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the

water.

The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:

1.Remove the lower basket and unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.

2.If you are filling the container for the first time , fill 2/3 of its volume with water.

3. Place the end of the salt filter(supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of salt . It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.

4. Carefully screw on the cap.

NOTE

2.If there are spills of salt, a soak program could be run to clean the spills.
