Detergent

Description

Powder

detergent

Powder detergent is

recommended for

shorter cycles. The

dosage can be ad-

justed to the level of

soiling.

Liquid de-

tergent

Liquid detergent

works faster and is

recommended for

shorter cycles with-

out a pre-rinse.

Sometimes liquid

detergent may leak

out despite the de-

tergent dispenser

being closed. This is

not a problem, just

remember the fol-

lowing:

¡

Only choose a cy-

cle without Pre-

Rinse.

¡

Do not use the

Delay Start op-

tion.

The dosage can be

adjusted to the level

of soiling.

11.2 Incompatible

detergents

Do not use a detergent which is

not designated for dishwasher use

or contains chlorine.

11.3

Information on

Detergent

Follow the instructions on deter-

gents in everyday use.

¡

Detergents marked as "ecologi-

cal" (environmentally friendly)

generally contain lower levels

of active agents or none at all.

The cleaning effect may be re-

duced.

¡

Adjust the rinse aid and the wa-

ter softening system settings in

accordance with the detergent

or combination detergent in

use.

¡

According to manufacturers,

combination detergents with

salt replacement substances

can only be used up to a cer-

tain water hardness, usually 26

°E, without adding special salt.

For the best washing and dry-

ing results we recommend us-

ing special salt from a water

hardness of 17 °E.

¡

Any rinse aid component of a

combination detergent has lim-

ited effectiveness. You will

have better results using a sep-

arate rinse aid.

¡

To prevent sticking, only touch

detergents in a water-soluble

pouch with dry hands and only

ever place them in a dry deter-

gent dispenser.

¡

Even if the rinse aid and spe-

cial salt refill indicators light up,

the wash cycles will run prop-

erly with combination deter-

gents.

¡

Use tablets with enhanced dry-

ing results.
