A maintenance consumable, not detergent
This Miele Care Collection product uses extra-coarse reactivation salt and is sold as one 3.3 lb (1.5 kg) package. The seller says it complements detergent and helps prevent limescale buildup, with residue flushed during rinsing—so it belongs in the salt system, not the detergent or rinse-aid compartment.
The useful question is not whether salt alone creates sparkle; it is whether your Miele dishwasher calls for this maintenance consumable.
