Adjusting Salt Consumption
Salt consumption must be adjusted to correspond to the water hardness level in your area. If you
don’t know how hard the water in your home is, please ask the company that supplies water in
your area.
It is recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following chart.

• Do not use everyday table salt or
cooking salt as they contain insoluble
substances which could damage the
dishwasher.
• Do not pour detergent into the
salt container. This will damage the
dishwasher.
• Use the correct amount of salt. Too
much may cause rust stains to occur
on cutlery, too little may cause white
residue to occur on cutlery and
crockery.
