Filling with dishwasher salt IMPORTANT: You should only use salt that is specially designed for use in a dishwasher. If any other type of salt is used in the appliance (in particular table salt), it will damage the water softener. o Ideally you should fill the water softener with salt, just before you are about to run a wash program.
o IMPORTANT: You do not need to pour 1 litre of water into the container when you subsequently fill the water softener with salt. Setting the water softener level It is possible to regulate the amount of salt that the water softener will release during a wash cycle.
Filling with rinse aid The rinse aid is released during the final rinse and it helps to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes. These droplets will lead to spots and streaks being left on items after the wash program has completed. o Your dishwasher is designed to utilise liquid rinse aid.
o You should continue to adjust the rinse aid level upwards until you get no water spots. o If you get cloudiness or streaking on your dishes, the rinse aid level is set too high and it is causing foaming during the wash cycle.
