water softener which uses a salt specifically designed to eliminate the minerals from the
water.

• Only use salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers.

softening system.
• Fill the salt container before starting the washing programme. In this way, the excess
saline solution will be immediately removed by the water; the prolonged presence of salt
water inside the tank may lead to corrosion.
