Problem
Refill salt
Machine locking out Insuffi-
cient salt
Salt container empty, Pro-
gramme locked
Salt container lid not properly
closed
Cause and remedy
Salt is running low in the water softener.
Refill the reactivation salt before starting the next pro-

gramme.
Salt in the water softener is completely depleted and react-
ivation is no longer possible. The machine is locked for fur-
ther use.
Refill the reactivation salt.

The water softener cannot reactivate because there is in-
sufficient salt. The machine is locked for further use.
Refill the reactivation salt.

The lock is lifted a couple of seconds after refilling the salt
reservoir. Reactivation will occur automatically during the
next programme sequence.
The salt container is not closed properly.
Close the container properly.

Salt residues are preventing it from closing.
Remove all residues from the funnel, the lid, and the

seal. Do not use running water as this can cause the salt
container to overflow.
Close the container properly.

The salt container flap has sprung open during a pro-
gramme.
 When the door is opened, hot steam and chemical
agents can escape!
Open the door and close the container flap.
