area.

substances which could damage the dishwasher.
• Do not pour detergent into the salt container. This will damage the dishwasher.

1. Remove the lower basket and unscrew the reservoir cap.
2. There is an arrow-shaped indicator in the reservoir, which you can turn. You may turn it to the "-"
or "+" settings based on the water hardness in your area.
