Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs. This will prevent any
grains of salt or salty water, which may have been split, remaining on the bottom of the machine for
any period of time, which may cause corrosion.
A. Remove the lower basket and then unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container
B. If you are filling the container for the first time, fill 800 ml of its volume with water.
C. Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1.5 kg of salt. It is normal
for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container
D. Carefully screw the cap back on.
E. Usually, the salt warning light will be off in 2-6 days after the salt container is filled with salt.
F. Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (we
suggest to use the rapid program). Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the
machine may be damaged by salty water. This is out of warranty.
NOTE:
-
The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel lights up. Though
the salt container is filled enough, the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully dissolve.
If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some models), you can judge when to load
the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher had run (see the following schema).
-
If there are spills of the salt, a program (rapid) could be run to wipe them out.
C. Fill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
Function of Rinse Aid
Rinse aid is automatically added during the last rinse, ensuring thorough rinsing, spot and streak free
drying.
ATTENTION: Only use branded rinse aid for dishwasher. Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with
any other substances (e.g. dishwasher cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This would damage the ap-
pliance.
When to Refill the Rinse Aid Dispenser
If there is no rinse-aid warning light on the control panel, you can judge the amount of rinse-aid by the
color of the optical level indicator "D" located next to the cap. When the rinse-aid container is full the
whole indicator will be dark. As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the dark dot decreases.
You should never let the rinse aid get below 1/4 full.
As the rinse aid diminishes, the size of the black dot on the rinse aid level indicator changes, as illus-
trated below.
