Using Your Dishwasher
Adjusting the Rinse Aid Dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser has four scales. Always start with the dispenser set on "3". If spots and poor drying are a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by removing the dispenser lid and rotating the dial to "4". The recommended setting is "3". (Factory value is "3".)
NOTE: Increase the dose if there are drops of water or lime spots on the dishes after washing. Reduce it if there are sticky whitish stains on your dishes or a bluish film on glassware or knife blades.

Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents:
1.With phosphate and with chlorine
2.With phosphate and without chlorine
3.Without phosphate and without chlorine
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when the hardness of water is only 6 °dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots will not be removed completely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
ŸConventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
ŸLow alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
The use of“normal” washing programs in combination with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programs are specifically matched to the
concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using “intensive” programs.
Detergent Tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programs. Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions provided in the wash cycle table. Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than Conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.
Adding detergent to Dishwasher
ŸIf the lid is closed: press release button. The lid will spring open.
ŸAlways add the detergent just before starting each wash cycle.
ŸOnly use branded detergent aid for dishwasher.
