Question from Jen: Asked on 17/02/2025 Please can you clarify if you can just use. Dishwasher tv or as one of your customers commented you need to add salt? What is this and what brand and how much do they retail at? Does it affect the quality or use of the dishwasher ? Many thanks in advance if you could answer this question
Yes, you do need to add dishwasher salt to the electriQ EQDW45BLACK Dishwasher, especially if you live in a hard water area. Dishwasher salt helps to soften the water, preventing limescale buildup and ensuring better cleaning performance. Do I need to use salt if I’m using all-in-one dishwasher tablets? Even if you're using all-in-one dishwasher tablets, it’s still recommended to add salt if your water is hard. Tablets contain a small amount of softening agent, but they may not be enough to protect your dishwasher and maintain wash quality over time. What type of salt do I need? You’ll need granular dishwasher salt, which is widely available from brands like Finish, Bosch, and Fairy. How much does it cost? Prices vary depending on the brand and pack size, but a 2kg bag typically costs around £3–£6. Does salt affect the dishwasher’s performance? Yes! Using salt helps: Prevent limescale buildup on internal parts Improve detergent effectiveness for a better clean Extend the lifespan of your dishwasher If your water is naturally soft, you may not need as much salt, but it’s still good practice to keep the salt reservoir topped up. Let us know if you need help finding the right products!
Question from Angie: Asked on 29/01/2025 How do you set a 30 min rapid cycle
To set the 30-minute rapid cycle on your electriQ EQDW45 dishwasher, simply select it from the control panel. The "Rapid" cycle is represented by an icon resembling a wine glass with a small circle beneath it. Once selected, the dishwasher will automatically adjust to a 30-minute wash. That's it! The rapid cycle is a quick and efficient way to get your dishes clean in no time.
