Reactivating The Water Softener; Filling The Salt Container - Miele G 7782 Operating Instructions Manual

Reactivating the water softener

When the REACTIVATION indicator light
on the left hand side of the control
panel comes on during a cycle, the
built-in water softener is depleted and
cannot supply any more soft water.
It should be reactivated with salt as
soon as the wash cycle has finished. If
this cannot be done, and further loads
have been washed, then the reactiva-
tion process should be carried out
twice in succession.
Each reactivation cycle requires:
^ 4.4 lbs (2 kg) of water softener salt. A
granule size of 1 to 4 mm is recom-
mended by Miele. Do not use any
other type of salt, it may damage the
water softener.
^ The plastic salt container which is
supplied with the washer/disinfector.
