Filling with special salt

Caution! The packaging of dishwasher salt and detergents are often very similar. The
accidental filling of the salt compartment with detergent would ruin the water
softener. Each time you add salt, make sure the carton you have in your hand really
is salt.
Only use salt specifically designed for use in dishwashers.
All other types of salt not specifically designed for use in a dishwasher,
especially table salt, will damage the water softener.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing
programmes (not the "Rinse and hold" programme). This will prevent
any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled,
remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which
may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. To fill with salt, unscrew the cap of the
salt container.
2. Pour 1 litre of water inside the
container (this is necessary only
before filling with salt for the first
time).
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the
salt until the container is full.
Do not worry if water overflows from
the unit when filling with salt, this is
quite normal.
4. Replace the cap making sure that
there is no trace of salt on the screw
thread or on the gasket.
5. Screw on the cap tightly.
When this has been done, all that is required is to periodically top up the container
with salt.
You are reminded of this by the salt indicator light on the control panel which will
illuminate when the salt has finished.
Important: The salt refill indicator light on the control panel can remain illuminated
for 2-6 hours after the salt has been replenished, assuring the dishwasher remains
on. If you are using salts that take longer to dissolve then this can take longer. The
function of the dishwasher is not affected.
