Special salt for the water softener

If the water hardness in your area is less than 4 °d, then the water in
3
your dishwasher does not need to be softened and you do not need to
use special salt or salt substitute.
Water can be softened in one of two ways:
• If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains salt sub-
stitute, the detergent only is put into the detergent compartment.
– In this case the water softener must manually be set to 0 and
electronically to 1 to ensure that no special salt is added.
• If you are using dishwasher detergent and special salt separately, the
special salt is to be put into the salt supply container.
– In this case the water softener must manually be set to 0 and
electronically to between 2 and 10 (depending on the water
hardness in your area) to ensure that the special salt is taken from
the detergent container only.
Use only special salt intended for dishwashers. Never fill the salt supply
1
container with different types of salt (e.g. cooking salt) or detergent.
This would destroy the water softener.
Prior to filling with salt, please check each time that you really do have
a packet of special salt in your hand.

Setting the amount of special salt to be added

Some appliances are equipped with an additional 3 in 1 function.

If you use 3-in-1 dishwashing tablets and select the 3 in 1 function
together with the dishwashing cycle, the inflow of special salt does not
have to be deactivated (see "3 in 1 function").
