Filling with dishwasher
salt
Warning! Only use salt specifically
designed for use in dishwashers. All
other types of salt not specifically
designed for use in a dishwasher,
especially table salt, will damage the
water softener. Only fill with salt just
before starting one of the complete
washing programmes. This will
prevent any grains of salt or salty
water, which may have been spilt,
remaining on the bottom of the
machine for any period of time, which
may cause corrosion.
To fill:
1. Open the door, remove the lower basket
and unscrew the cap of the salt container
by turning it anticlockwise.
2. Pour 1 litre of water into the container
(this is necessary only before filling
with salt for the first time).
3. Using the funnel provided, pour in the salt
until the container is full.
4. Replace the cap making sure that there is
no trace of salt on the screw thread or on
the gasket.
5. Replace the cap tightly turning it clockwise
until it stops with a click.
Do not worry if water overflows from
the unit when filling with salt, this is
quite normal.
The salt container will require topping up
periodically. You are reminded of this by a
displayed message.
This occurs only at the start and at the end of
the washing programme; during the running of
the programme the indication for salt refilling
is not active.
The refilling salt message can remain
visible for 2-6 hours after the salt has
been replenished, assuming the
dishwasher remains switched on. If
you are using salt that takes longer to
dissolve then this can take longer. The
operation of the machine is not
affected.
Filling with rinse aid
Warning! Only use branded rinse aid
for dishwashers.
Never fill the rinse aid dispenser with
any other substances (e.g. dishwasher
cleaning agent, liquid detergent). This
would damage the appliance.
Rinse aid ensures thorough rinsing, and
spot and streak free drying.
Rinse aid is automatically added during
the last rinse.
1. Open the container by pressing the
release button (A).
