Adding detergent

Pour detergent into the dispenser 30 (insert tablet flat, not on its edge). Dosage: see manufacturer's instructions on the packaging. Close the cover on the detergent dispenser by sliding it up until the lock engages without difficulty.

The detergent dispenser opens automatically at the optimum time depending on the programme. The powder or liquid detergent is distributed in the appliance and is dissolved, the tablet falls into the tablet collecting tray where it dissolves in doses.

Tip

If the utensils are only lightly soiled, slightly less than the indicated amount of detergent is usually adequate.

Warnings

Do not place small parts for washing in the tablet collecting tray 24 ; this prevents the tablet from dissolving evenly.

If you want to add more utensils after the programme has started, do not use the tablet collecting tray 24

as a handle for the upper basket. The tablet could already be there and you will touch the partially dissolved tablet.

Note

You will obtain optimum rinsing and drying results by using solo detergents and applying salt and rinse-aid separately.

f programmes are short, tablets may not have full cleaning effect due to different dissolving properties and there may even be undissolved detergent residue. It is recommended to use washing powder for these programmes.

The Intensive programme (on some models) requires one tab only. When using washing powder, you can apply some of this cleaning agent to the inside of the appliance's door.

Even if the rinse-aid and/or salt refill indicator is lit, the rinse programme will run correctly if combined detergents are used (when using combined detergents, add rinse-aid at a water hardness above 21 _dH ± see chapter entitled ªRinse-aidº).

If you switch from combined detergents to solo detergents, ensure that the water softening system and amount

of rinse-aid have been set to the correct value.

If using detergents in a water-soluble protective cover: Take hold of the cover with dry hands only and put the detergent into an absolutely dry detergent dispenser only, otherwise the detergent may stick.
