Daily Check - KitchenAid KDFX6031 Use And Care Manual

Daily check

Filling the salt reservoir
Dissolve limescale (not necessary if water hardness
level is set to "soft 1"!)
Visual indicator (depending on the model).
Unscrew cap.
Fill the salt reservoir with water before the first
wash only.
Add salt (never add detergent!) min. 0.8 kg / max.
1 kg.
Screw on the cap. Salt residual around the cap need
to be removed. Some salt reservoir have a level
indicator integrated in the cap (see to the right how
to check).
Once regeneration salt is added,
immediately start a wash program (the
"Pre-wash" program alone is not sufficient).
Residual saline solution or grains of salt can
lead to deep-down corrosion, irreparably
damaging the stainless steel components. The
guarantee is not applicable if faults are
caused by such circumstances.
The salt level indicator lamp may remain lit
at the end of several wash cycles. If the water
hardness set to level 1 (soft), no salt is
required and salt indicator lamp will remain
off.
(depending on the model)
