HINTS AND TIPS

The water softener

erals that can cause damage to the appli-
ance and bad washing results. The water
softener neutralises these minerals.
The dishwasher salt keeps the water soft-
ener clean and in good conditions. It is im-
portant to set the right level of the water
softener. This makes sure that the water
softener uses the correct quantity of dish-
washer salt and water.
