adding salt

If you live in a hard water area deposits may form on your dishes and utensils. Using salt softens 

the water and reduces the formation of deposits.
Please follow the steps below to fill the salt reservoir. The water hardness level will also need to be set.
1.  Remove the lower basket and turn the reservoir cap anticlockwise.
2.  Pour in approximately 1 kg of dishwasher salt.
3.  Fill the reservoir with water until it overflows (first use only).
4.  Clean any excess salt from around the reservoir opening  

and then screw the cap on again firmly.

5.  Run the “Rinse” programme P8 immediately (without any 

crockery in the dishwasher) to remove any traces of salt from 

the compartment.

•  The salt low warning indicator on the control panel will illuminate when the reservoir is 

running out of salt and requires refilling.

•  Once refilled, the salt low warning indicator will cease to illuminate within a few days, 

depending on how quickly the salt dissolves.

* All images are for reference only; please refer to your individual unit for actual item.

adjusting salt consumption

Salt consumption must be adjusted to correspond to the water hardness level in your area. If you don’t 

know how hard the water in your home is, please ask the company that supplies water in your area.
