SALT
Only add water to the salt compartment on first use.
• Use softener salt specifically produced for use in dishwashers.
• When you start your dishwasher, the salt compartment is filled with water, therefore put the
softener salt in prior to starting your machine.
• If the softener salt has overflowed and you do not start the machine immediately, run a short
washing program to protect your machine against corrosion.

water supply. To find out the hardness level of your tap water, contact your water company or
use the test strip (if available).
