Adding Salt; Detergent - Beko DVN05R20W User Manual

Adding salt

Water softening system needs to be
regenerated in order for the product
to operate with the same performance
continuously. Dishwasher salt is used for
this purpose.
Use only special softening salts
produced particularly for the
dishwashers in your machine.
It is recommended to use granule- or
powder-formed softening salts in the
water softening system. Do not use
salts that do not completely dissolve
in water such as table salt or rock
salt. Otherwise the performance of the
system may deteriorate in time.
Salt reservoir will be filled with water
when you start the product. For this
reason, add salt before operating the
machine.
1. Firstly, take the lower basket out to add
softening salt.
2. Turn the salt reservoir lid counter-
clockwise to open it (A).
3. Add 1 liter of water to salt reservoir of
your machine only in initial use.
4. Fill the salt reservoir with salt by
using the salt funnel (D). To speed up
dissolution rate of salt in water, stir it
with a spoon.
You can put about 2 kg of softening
salt into the salt reservoir.
5. Replace the lid and tighten it when the
reservoir is full.
You need to add salt right before
starting the machine. Thus, the
overflowing salty water will be flushed
immediately, preventing the risk
of corrosion in machine. In cases
where you would not start washing
immediately, run your machine empty
in the shortest programme.
Since different salt brands in the
market have different particle sizes and
since the water hardness may vary,
dissolution of the salt in water may
take a couple of hours. Therefore, Salt
Indicator remains on for a while after
adding salt into the machine.

Detergent

You can use powder, liquid/gel or tablet
detergents in the machine.
Only use detergents produced
particularly for use with dishwashers.
Note that detergents that contain
chlorine and phosphate can be harmful
for the environment. Liquid detergents
without chlorine may not remove tea
and coffee stains from cups.
