Salt
Water hardness varies according to where you live. If hard
water were to enter your dishwasher, scaly incrustations
would form on your dishes.
Thanks to a water softener which uses special dishwasher
salt, the limescale in the water is eliminated.
Loading salt into the water softener
Always use salt which is intended for dishwasher use.
The salt container is situ-
ated underneath the lower
rack and should be filled up
as follows:
1. Pull out the lower rack
completely, unscrew and
remove the container cap.
2. If it is the first time you
load the salt container, fill
it up with water.
3. Put the funnel provided
on the hole and pour in
approximately two kilos of
salt. It is normal if some water comes out of the container.
4. Screw the cap back in place carefully.
The salt container should be filled up when the "low
salt" indicator light on the control panel comes on.
Warning: To prevent rust from forming, load the salt just
before beginning a wash cycle.
Adjusting the salt consumption
Your dishwasher can adjust its
salt consumption according to
the hardness of the water used
in order to optimise and
customise the dishwasher's salt
consumption to the minimum
level necessary.
You can find out what the level
of water hardness in your area
is from the company that sup-
plies the water there.
To make the adjustment, follow
the instructions below:
1. unscrew the salt container cap
2. there is an arrow on the neck of the container (see figure
on the right); if necessary, turn the arrow anti-clockwise from
the "-" setting to the "+" setting according to the hardness
of the water supplied.
We recommend you make the adjustment according to the
following table:
