Loading the Salt into the Softener
Always use salt intended for use with dishwashers.
The salt container is located beneath the lower rack and should be filled as follows:
Remove the lower basket and unscrew and remove the cap from the salt container.
If you are filling the container for the first time , fill 2/3 of its volume with water.
Place the end of the salt filter(supplied) into the hole and introduce about 2kg of
salt . It is normal for a small amount of water to come out of the salt container.
Carefully screw on the cap.

Adjusting Salt Consumption
Unscrew the cap from the salt container.
There is a ring on the container with an arrow on it (see Figure to the side). If
necessary, rotate the ring in the counterclockwise direction from the "-" s etting
toward the "+" sign, based on the hardness of the water being used.It is
recommended that adjustments should be made in accordance with the following

1. The salt container must be refilled when the salt warning light comes on. Though the salt container is filled,
the indicator light may not black out before the salt fully dissolves.
2. If there are spills of salt, a soak program could be run to clean the spills.

Contact your local water board for information on the hardness of your water supply.
The hardness of the water varies from place to place. If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will form on the dishes
and utensils.
The appliance is equipped with a special softener that uses salt specifically designed to eliminate lime and minerals from the
water.
WATER SOFTENER
NOTE:
The dishwasher is designed to allow for adjusting the amount of salt consumed based on the hardness of the water used.
This is intended to optimize and customize the level of salt consumption.
There are two ways to reduce the hardness: one way is by using water softener, the other is by
using detergent.
