Salt Indicator - Miele dishwashers Operating Instructions Manual

Before using for the first time
^ Remove the lower basket and
unscrew the salt reservoir cap.
Water or saline solution will run out
of the reservoir when the cap is
removed. It should therefore only be
removed in order to refill the salt
reservoir.
^ Fill the reservoir with approx. 1 litre of
water (first use only).
^ Place the funnel provided over the
salt reservoir and carefully fill with
salt until the reservoir is full. The salt
reservoir holds approx. 1 kg of salt.
^ Clean any excess salt from around
the reservoir opening and then screw
the cap on again firmly.
^ Run the Quick wash programme im-
mediately (without any crockery in
the dishwasher) to remove any traces
of salt from the cabinet.

Salt indicator

^ Fill the salt reservoir with dishwasher
salt when the salt indicator light
comes on. (If it comes on during a
programme, wait until the end of the
programme).
After the reservoir has been filled, the
water softener is automatically
reactivated the next time the
dishwasher is run. The salt indicator
light may still be illuminated during this
process. It will go out once the salt
concentration has reached the correct
level.
The salt indicator is deactivated when
the dishwasher has been programmed
to a water hardness level below
0.7 mmol/l (4 °d).

After filling the salt reservoir, run
the Quick wash programme immedi-
ately (without any crockery in the
dishwasher) to remove any traces of
salt from the cabinet.
