WARNING!
Do not put anything but salt in the
Salt
compartment . If any other detergent/
additive is poured inadvertently in this
compartment, please refer to 'Eliminating
detergent or other additives from salt
compartment' in 'Troubleshooting'
chapter.
Only use special salt for dishwasher
and/or washing machine. The proper salt
can be ordered from the web site!
Other types of salts are less efficient and
over time could damage the water
softener technology permanently.
WARNING!
Do not use fine salt!
The appliance works exploiting its full
potential with salt. Salt refilling when
required by the appliance maintains the
softening system efficient. If you use the
appliance without salt for a long time,
once the salt is finally refilled, the water
softener function is completely restored
after a few long washing cycles.

only.
The regeneration process is automatically
ensured when running programmes such as
Cottons and Synthetics routinely even if the
programme duration is reduced by tapping
the Time Save button once, if available in the
appliance.
Other programmes may perform the
regeneration process automatically, when
settings and conditions allow it.
If you usually run very short cycles, the
regeneration process may not occur: you
could see that salt has not been used,
since it is consumed during regeneration
phase only.
To ensure the regeneration process run
a Cottons or a Synthetics programme
once a week or every two weeks at
least.
