10Filling with Special Salt for the Water Softener1 Use only special salt for dishwashers. Neverfill the salt container with any another type ofsalt (e.g. culinary salt) or dishwasher deter-gent. This would irreparably damage thewater softener.Prior to filling with salt, please check eachtime that you really do have a packet of spe-cial salt in your hand.Fill with special salt:• Prior to using the dishwasher for the first time• If a green mark can be seen under the lid of thespecial salt container, then there is sufficient spe-cial salt. If the green mark cannot be seen, youmust refill the container with special salt.3 If the water hardness in your area is lessthan 4 °d, you do not need to use specialsalt. The green mark will then not be visible.The function of the appliance is not impaired.1. Open the door, remove the lower rack.2. Undo the lid on the salt container by turning it anti-clockwise.3. Only when using for the first time:fill the salt container with water.4. Place the funnel supplied on the container open-ing.Fill the container with special salt through the fun-nel; the capacity of the container is approx. 1.0-1.5 kg depending on the grain size. Do not overfillthe salt container with special salt.3 The water expelled by filling the salt con-tainer with special salt runs out of the saltcontainer onto the base of the washing com-partment. This is not a cause for concern,the water will be pumped out at the start ofthe next wash programme.5. Clean any salt remnants on the container open-ing.6. Turn the lid clockwise to the stop, otherwise spe-cial salt will leak into the wash water, this couldlead to poor wash results. To avoid this run a rinseprogram after filling the salt container with specialsalt. This will wash away salt water and any saltcrystals that have been spilt.3 Depending on the size of the salt grains, itcan take several hours for the salt to dissolvein the water and the green mark to becomevisible again.The setting of the water softener and thusthe consumption of salt are dependent onthe hardness of the local water.SALESALTSALZSEL
