Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.
NOTE:NOTE:
If your model does not have any water softener, you may skip this section.
WATER SOFTENER
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will
form on the dishes and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses a salt container specifically designed to eliminate
lime and minerals from the water.

B. Loading the Salt Into the SoftenerB. Loading the Salt Into the Softener
Always use the salt intended for use with dishwasher.
The salt container is located beneath the lower basket and should be filled as explained
in the following:
Attention!
Only use salt specifically designed for the use in dishwashers! Every other type of
salt not specifically designed for the use in a dishwasher, especially table salt, will
damage the water softener. In case of damages caused by the use of unsuitable
salt the manufacturer does not give any warranty nor is liable for any damages caused.
Only fill with salt just before starting one of the complete washing programs.
This will prevent any grains of salt or salty water, which may have been spilled,
remaining on the bottom of the machine for any period of time, which may cause
corrosion.

A After the lower basket has been removed, unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
B Place the end of the funnel (supplied) into the hole and introduce about 1.5kg of dishwasher salt.
Full fill the salt container with water,It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the
C
salt container.
D After filling the container , screw the cap tightly back clockwise.
E The salt warning light will stop being after the salt container has been filled with salt.
F Immediately after filling the salt into the salt container, a washing program should be started (We suggest to use a short
program). Otherwise the filter system, pump or other important parts of the machine may be damaged
by salty water. This is out of warranty.

22
NOTE:NOTE:
1. The salt container must only be refilled when the salt warning light in the control panel comes on.
Depending on how well the salt dissolves, the salt warning light may still be on even though the
salt container is filled.
If there is no salt warning light in the control panel (for some Models),you can estimate when to fill
the salt into the softener by the cycles that the dishwasher has run.
2. If there are spills of the salt, a soak or a rapid program should be run to remove the excessive salt.
