Special salt for the water softener

If the water hardness in your area is less than 4 °d, then the water in

your dishwasher does not need to be softened and you do not need to

use special salt or salt substitute.

Water can be softened in one of two ways:

• If you are using dishwasher detergent that already contains salt sub-

stitute, the detergent only is put into the detergent compartment.

– In this case the water softener must manually be set to 0 and

electronically to 1 to ensure that no special salt is added.

• If you are using dishwasher detergent and special salt separately, the

special salt is to be put into the salt supply container.

– In this case the water softener must manually be set to 0 and

electronically to between 2 and 10 (depending on the water

hardness in your area) to ensure that the special salt is taken from

the detergent container only.

Use only special salt intended for dishwashers. Never fill the salt supply

container with different types of salt (e.g. cooking salt) or detergent.

This would destroy the water softener.

Prior to filling with salt, please check each time that you really do have

a packet of special salt in your hand.

Some appliances are equipped with an additional 3 in 1 function.

If you use 3-in-1 dishwashing tablets and select the 3 in 1 function

together with the dishwashing cycle, the inflow of special salt does not

have to be deactivated (see "3 in 1 function").
