Reactivation

In order to achieve good cleaning results, the dishwasher water needs t
o be softened. The water is softened automatically in the water softener. Dishwasher salt is required for reactivation and the degree of water hardness must be set on the dishwasher to ensure problem-free functioning of the water softener (see "Additional settings, Water hardness").
If the hardness of your water constantly lies under 4 gpg (4 °dH), no salt mu
st be filled in the water softener.
Do not fill the salt container with dishwasher detergent (even liquid d
etergent).
Dishwasher detergent will damage the water softener.
Use only special, coarse-grained reactivation salt or other pure kitchen salt.
Other types of salt may contain insoluble components which can damage t
he water softener.
