Water softener
Your dishwasher has been provided with
a water softener, which gives you soft,
lime free water for the rinses. This greatly
aids the cleaning process and prevents
chalky patches.
All you need to do is to top up the salt
container from time to time.
Before using the machine for the first time,
lift out the lower basket, unscrew the cap
from the salt container and fill it with wa¬
ter. Place the funnel over the opening and
pour the salt into the container until it is
full to the top. Some water will overflow
which will be pumped off at the start of the
next programme.
Clean any surplus salt from the thread ol
the container and replace the cap.
Replace the basket.
The machine is ready for use.
