Dishwasher Operation
Water Softener
For water softener models only, a salt compartment is
located at the bottom of the interior. Refer to the illustra-
tion below.
Prior to filling the salt compartment for the first time, fill
the compartment with water, then add salt. Water does not
have to be added with subsequent refills.
When softener salt is low, “Add Salt. Enter once added,
Cancel to ignore.” appears on the display.
To add softener salt:
1 Pull the lower rack forward and if necessary, turn the
lower spray arm away from the compartment cover.
2 Turn the cover counterclockwise to remove. It is normal
for the reservoir to contain water.
3 Fill the compartment completely with dishwasher soft-
ener salt.
4 Once full, clean any excess salt from the threads of the
salt compartment, then turn the cover clockwise to
secure.
5 Run a Quick cycle.
CAUTION
Do not add anything other than dishwasher salt to
the salt compartment.
The water softener must regenerate periodically to
maintain water quality. When necessary, the regeneration
process starts automatically before the next wash cycle
(excludes Rinse/Hold) and lasts approximately 20 minutes.
The wash cycle begins after the regeneration process is
complete. “Water softener active. Press Start” appears on
the display during the regeneration process. To continue,
touch Start and close the door.
