Water softener (Not available in US models.)

Filling the salt reservoir.

The salt reservoir should be filled be- fore the first use and whenever the “Salt” indicator lamp is lit. Use water softener reactivation salt (1 - 4 mm grain size), as other salts may contain insoluble additives which can impair the functioning of the softener.

The salt reservoir holds approx. 4 lbs (2 kg) of salt.

Inadvertently filling the salt reservoir with dishwashing detergent will damage the water softener. Make sure that only water softener reacti- vation salt of the proper grain size is used.

Remove the lower basket.

Unscrew and remove the salt reser- voir cap.

Before filling the salt reservoir for the first time:

Fill the salt reservoir with approxi- mately 2 quarts of water.

Place the funnel (provided) over the salt reservoir.

Carefully fill with salt. As it is filled, water will run out.

Clean any excess salt from the threads of the reservoir opening.

Screw the cap on firmly.

If the dishwasher will not be used im- mediately after reactivation, run the RINSE & HOLD program. This will remove any traces of salt from the cabinet.
