Integral Water Softener (Optional) - Miele PTD 701 Notice D'utilisation

Integral water softener (optional)

10 Integral water softener (optional)
By softening the mains water, limescale build-up in the machine and on the dishes can be avoided. For the
water softener to work correctly, the salt container must be filled with regeneration salt.
10.1 Display of lack of salt
A pictogram on the display shows when the salt container is empty and needs to be refilled. The
icon disappears after filling the salt container, as soon as approx. 3 wash cycles have been com-
pleted and part of the salt has been dissolved.
10.2 Refilling the regeneration salt
Tip Salt residues can have a negative effect on the wash result. It is best therefore to top up the regenera-
tion salt before starting the self-cleaning programme.
Possible risk of damage to the water softener
Chemicals such as detergent or rinse aid will inevitably damage the water softener. Only fill with
regeneration salt or pure evaporated salt.
Caution
Possible damage to the functioning of the water softener
Do not fill with any other types of salt (e.g. table salt or de-icing salt). These can contain non-
soluble components. Fill only with fine-grain salt (max. 1-4 mm grain size).
INFO Due to their size, salt tablets are not suitable.
Danger of rust formation in the filling area
After filling the regeneration salt, start a wash cycle or the self-cleaning programme in order to
wash away any salt residues that may be present.
Caution
