Salt indicator
When the salt reservoir is empty, the
“Salt-PC” indicator will light, indicating
that it should be refilled with reactiva-
tion salt.
After the reservoir has been filled, the
water softener is automatically reacti-
vated the next time the dishwasher is
started. The “Softener” indicator will
light during this process.
Note:
If your water is soft (below 8 gr/gal) the
salt reservoir should not be filled with
salt. The indicator will remain lit and
should be disregarded or deactivated.
The “Salt-PC” indicator has also been
designed so that future program up-
dates can be entered into the dish-
washer. See the “After Sales Service”.
