Using special salt
Always refill with special salt
immediately before switching on the
appliance. This ensures that overrun
special salt solution is immediately
washed out and does not corrode the
rinsing tank.
1. Open the screw-type cap of the
compartment 1J.
2. Fill the tank with water (only required
when switching on the appliance for
the first time).
3. Then add dishwasher salt (not table
salt or tablets).
The water is displaced and runs out.
As soon as the salt refill indicator h
on the fascia is lit, top up the salt.

Water softening system/Special salt
Using detergents with salt
replacement substances
According to the manufacturers,
detergents with salt replacement
substances can only be used up to a
specific degree of hardness (usually
21° dH, 37° fH, 26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/
l) if no special salt is added. For
optimum cleaning and drying results, we
recommend using special salt from a
water hardness of 14° dH (25° fH,
17° Clarke, 2.5 mmol/l).
