Use of dishwasher salt

Warning!
Only use salt specifically designed for use in
dishwashers. All other types of salt not
specifically designed for use in a dishwasher,
especially table salt, will damage the water
softener. Only fill with salt just before starting
one of the complete washing programmes.
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty
water, which may have been spilt, remaining
on the bottom of the machine for any period
of time, which may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket
and unscrew the cap of the salt container
by turning it anticlockwise.
2. Pour 1 litre of water into the container
(this is necessary only before filling
with salt for the first time) .
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt
until the container is full.
6 flashes, pause, 6 flashes, pause, etc. =
level 6
5. To change the level, press the start/can-
cel button. Each time the button is
pressed the level changes.
Examples:
if the current level is 5, by pressing start/
cancel button once, level 6 is selected.
if the current level is 10, by pressing start/
cancel button once, level 1 is selected.
6. To memorize the operation, switch off the
dishwasher by returning the programme
knob to the Off position.
4. Replace the cap making sure that there
is no trace of salt on the screw thread or
on the gasket.
5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clock-
wise until it stops with a click.
Do not worry if water overflows from the
unit when filling with salt, this is quite
normal.
The salt indicator light on the control
panel can remain illuminated for 2-6
hours after the salt has been
replenished, assuming the
dishwasher remains switched on. If
you are using salt that takes longer
to dissolve then this can take longer.
The operation of the machine is not
affected.
