Reactivating the water softener

Please only use special coarse grained
reactivation salt with granules of
approx. 1-4 mm. Do not use other types
of salt, e.g. table salt, agricultural or
gritting salt. These could contain
components which are insoluble in
water which could result in damage to
the water softener.
The salt container holds approx. 2 kg of
salt.
If only fine grained reactivation salt
is available please consult the Miele
Spare Parts Department for advice.
Salt with granules ü 4 mm must not
be used in this machine.
,
Inadvertently filling the salt
reservoir with cleaning agent can
cause serious damage to the water
softener and damage the filter insert,
and cause pressure to build-up in
the salt container. To avoid the risk
of injury please exercise caution
when removing the salt container as
there may be irritant alkaline
solutions present.
Before filling the salt container make
sure that you have picked up the
right packet of reactivation salt.
