Open the salt reservoir (usually located at the bottom of the dishwasher). Fill it with water before adding the salt. Use a funnel to prevent spills. Refer to your manual for the exact location.

How often should I clean the filters?

The filters should be cleaned regularly, ideally after each wash or at least once a month. The self-cleaning program is also recommended.
