Preparation If the hardness level of the water that you use is above 80 °dF (French standard for water hardness) or if you are using well water, then it is recommended to use filter and water purification devices. If the hardness level of the water that you use is below 8°dF (French standard for water hardness), there is no need to use salt in your dishwasher. If this is the case, "No Salt Warning Indicator" (if any) illuminates continuously on the panel of your machine. If the water hardness adjustment is set to level 1, the "No salt warning indicator" will illuminate continuously although it is not necessary to use salt. If you use salt under this condition, salt will not be consumed and the lamp will not illuminate. C Since different salt brands in the market have different particle sizes and since the water hardness may vary, dissolution of the salt in water may take a couple of hours. Therefore, Salt Indicator remains on for a while after adding salt into the machine. Loose salt grains can cause rust marks in your machine if not rinsed away. Only fill salt just before a programme is run. C Contact the detergent producer if the dishes are wet and/or if you notice limescale spots particularly on glasses after the washing programme is over.
