Adding special salt
Only use special salt suitable for domestic dishwashers.
If you don’t use 3 in 1 detergent add special salt:
-Before using the dishwasher for the first time.
-When the indicator for special salt is illuminated on the control panel.
1. Open the door and remove the lower
basket.
2. Screw open the lid on the salt
dispenser by turning it anti-
clockwise.
3. Only when using the dishwasher
for the first time:
Fill the salt dispenser with water.
4. Place the funnel (supplied) over the
dispenser opening.
Fill the dispenser with special salt;
the capacity of the dispenser is
approx. 1.0-1.5 kg, depending on the size of the grains. Do not
overfill the dispenser.
If water overflows when filling up with special salt, this is completely
harmless.
5. Clean away any salt remnants from the dispenser opening.
6. Screw the lid back on in a clockwise direction.
7. Run a dishwashing cycle after filling the salt dispenser with
special salt. This will wash away salt water and any salt crystals that
have been spilt.
Depending on the size of the salt grains, it can take several hours
for the salt to dissolve in the water and for the salt indicator to go
out.
