Warning

Three-in-one dishwasher tablets are now available on the market, and combine detergent, salt and rinse aid all in one.

If the water in your area is hard or very hard, we still recommend you pour extra salt into the relevant dispenser to prevent the formation of white streaks on your dishes or on the interior of the appliance.

Using a three-in-one product means it is no longer necessary to put rinse aid into the relevant container.

If you want to achieve perfectly dry dishes, you may add rinse aid as long as the dosage adjuster is set to no.2. In any case, please read the manufacturer's instructions on the packet.

If you use only these products, it is normal for the salt and rinse aid indicator lights to flash permanently after a certain number of cycles.
