Before using for the first time
You can check the water hardness level
measured by the water softener sensor
in the display (see Settings menu
Water hardness).
If the water in your area is very soft
and constantly lower than
0.7 mmol/l (4 °d - German scale)
you do not need to add salt. The
insufficient salt message will be
deactivated automatically.
,
Inadvertently filling the salt
reservoir with powder or liquid
dishwasher detergent will damage
the water softener. Make sure you
have picked up the correct packet
of dishwasher salt before filling the
salt reservoir!
,
Only use special coarse grained
dishwasher salt for reactivation. Do
not use other salts such as cooking
salt, agricultural grade or gritting
salt. These may contain insoluble
additives which can impair the
functioning of the water softener.
