Dishwasher Setup
Water Softening System
Your dishwasher requires soft water to ensure proper washing results
and is equipped with an internal water softening system. However, if you
have a household water softening system, the internal system pro vided
is not needed.
For the water softening system to function properly, it will need to use
the dishwasher water softening salt. The amount of salt dispensed can
be set from “H:00” to “H:07”. Salt is not required at H:00 (this is the de-
fault factory setting). The amount of salt required depends on the de-
gree of hardness of your tap water. See Table 1.
1 Open the door and turn the unit on using the [ON/OFF] button.
2 Hold down the “A” button (see page 4) and press [START] until the
display indicates “H:00”.
3 Release both buttons.
4 Press the “C” button to select the desired setting.
5 Save the selected setting by pressing [START] and close the door.
Salt
Refill the salt container, using a funnel to pour, right before turning on the unit to
ensure that salt overflow is immediately washed away. This prevents corro sion.
See Figure 1.
1 Open the screw cap of the salt container.
2 Fill the container with water (only required when turning on the unit for the
first time).
3 Add dishwasher salt until the water is displaced and runs out.
4 Refill with salt as soon as the salt refill indicator is lit.
Warning: Never fill the salt dispenser with detergent. It will destroy the water
softening system. To prevent corrosion, refill with salt and immediately begin any cycle.
Note: Rell salt only when the “Rell Salt” LED or the salt rell symbol is lit. Do not use salt tablets or any salt other than
dishwasher water softening salt.
For more information about ordering salt please contact Customer Service.
Detergent
Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing
detergent or detergent tabs.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products in your dishwasher.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. Using too much detergent with soft water
may cause etching in glassware.
The dishwasher uses less water, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft
water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent
dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent (Figure 2) to 1 tablespoon (15
ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml). 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent will com-
pletely fill the detergent dispenser.
Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml of deter gent.
Increase the amount if necessary to the least amount required to get your kitchenware
clean.
