Position the salt container as
follows:
Remove the bottom basket from the
machine.
Unscrew the plastic cap in the base
of the wash cabinet.
Place the salt container on the reacti-
vation socket and screw firmly into
place.
Switch on the machine
Open the stopcocks if previously closed.
Close the door.
Press I-0.
Press the k touch pad.
Press the "Start" h touch pad.
The reactivation programme proceeds
automatically and finishes when the indi-
cator light k at the left hand side of the
control panel and the "Start" indicator
light h have gone out.
Then:
Switch off the machine.
Unscrew the salt container carefully,
so that any water pressure that has
built up can be released. Do not use
force. If you cannot uncrew the salt
container by hand, contact the Miele
Service department.
Screw the plastic lid back on the socket.
Reposition bottom basket.
Rinse the salt container and filter in-
sert thoroughly.
Turn off the stopcocks if the machine
is not to be used again for some time.
Important
The water pressure (flow pressure at the
take off point) must be at least 2.5 bar. If
it less than this see "Programming spe-
cial functions".
If the flow pressure is below 2.5 bar, or
if it fluctuates, the water softener can-
not be reactivated in the normal way.
After reactivation, salt remains may still
be found in the salt container.
To use up the salt remains and to wash
out the water softener, the "reactivate
softener" programme must be switched
on again.
