Positions of cutlery rack
Using the Water Softener
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the
dishwasher, deposits will be formed on the utensils. This appliance is equipped with a
water softener which uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate the minerals from the
water.
CAUTION:
 Only use salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers.
 Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which may damage the water
softening system.
 Fill the salt container before starting the washing programme. In this way, the excess
saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt
water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.
 If you plan to use dishwasher tablets for your washing needs, then you do not require to
use salt or rinse agent but please note that the refill salt indicator light
illuminated on the control panel. This is quite normal and will not affect the operation of
your dishwasher.
