Adding Salt - Miele HG05 Operating Instructions Manual

Adding salt

Before filling the salt reservoir with
dishwasher salt for the first time, you
must fill it with approx. 2 litres of wa‐
ter to enable the salt to dissolve.
Once the dishwasher has been used,
there is always sufficient water in the
reservoir.
 Remove the lower basket and un‐
screw the salt reservoir cap.
Water or saline solution will run out
of the reservoir when the cap is re‐
moved.
It should therefore only be removed
in order to refill the salt reservoir.
 Fill the reservoir with approx. 2 litres
of water (first use only).
Before using for the first time
 Place the funnel provided over the
salt reservoir and carefully fill with
salt until the reservoir is full. The salt
reservoir holds approx. 2 kg of salt
depending on the brand used.
 Clean any excess salt from around
the reservoir opening and then screw
the cap on again firmly.
 Immediately after filling the salt reser‐
voir, run the Sensor wash gentle 
programme with the Short  option
and without any crockery in the dish‐
washer to remove any traces of salt
from the cabinet.
