Water Softener (Some Models Only) - Fisher & Paykel DD24DTX6I1 User Manual

The salt reservoir must always be filled with granular salt designed for dishwasher water
softening. We do not recommend the use of cooking salt like table salt, rock salt or pellets
as they may contain impurities that will damage the water softener. Do not add detergent
or rinse aid to the salt reservoir. This will cause damage.

When to refill the salt reservoir
If the salt indicator is red, the salt reservoir must be filled. If the salt indicator is black,
there is enough salt in the reservoir. After initially filling the reservoir, approximately 0.55lb
(250g) of salt should be added each time a refill is required. This will ensure a high salt
concentration is maintained to achieve optimal performance.
