[. . . ] We recommend that you use small-grained or powder softener salt. Do not put table salt into your machine. Otherwise, the function of the softener compartment may decrease over time. When you start your dishwasher, the salt compartment gets filled with water. Therefore, put the softener salt prior to starting your machine. This way, overflowing salt gets immediately cleaned up through the wash operation. If you are not going to wash any dishes immediately after putting salt, then run a short washing program with an empty machine in order to avoid any damage ( to prevent corrosion ) to your machine due to the salt overflow while filling in the salt container. 10 Testing strip The washing effectiveness of your machine depends on the softness of the tap water. For this reason, your machine is equipped with a system that reduces the hardness in mains water supply. The washing effectiveness will increase when the system is correctly set. To find out the water hardness level of water in your area, contact your local water board or determine water hardness level by using the test strip(if available). Open the testing strip. Keep the testing strip in water for 1 sec. Shake the testing strip after taking it out of water. Make your machine’s water hardness setting according to the result obtained through the testing strip.
