Only use regenerating salt specially formulated for domestic dishwashers. If using salt tablets, do not fill the container completely. User instructions Do not use table salt as it contains insoluble substances which, over time, may damage the water softening system. When necessary, refill the regenerating salt container before starting the washing program.
