4.3 Filling of the water softener container
The water softener container is below the lower dish rack.
❖ Only use a water softener (= dishwasher salt) which is suitable for
dishwashers. Other water softeners and salts, especially table salt, will damage
the water softener container.
❖ The manufacturer shall not guarantee against and is not liable for any damage
caused by an unsuitable water softener.
❖ Fill the container only shortly before you start a programme, otherwise spilled
residuals of the water softener may remain in the appliance and cause corrosion.
1. Remove the lower dish-rack and the lid of the water softener container.
2. When you fill the container for the first time, pour approx. 1 l of water into the
container.
3. Put the equipped funnel in the opening and pour approx. 1.5 kg water softener
(= dishwasher salt) into the container.
4. Close the lid carefully.
5. The control light for the hardness of water usually goes off after 2-6 days.
