Different kinds of detergent

Concentrated detergent

Modern detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively low- alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet form.

Using 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with these concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these washing programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in concentrated detergents. It is for this reason that using 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents can achieve the same cleaning results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C washing programmes.

Detergent tablets

Detergent tablets from different manufactures dissolve at different rates. For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power during short washing programmes. Therefore please use long washing programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.

Use of combi tablet detergents

This appliance is equipped with the "Multi-tab" function, that allows the use of combi tablet detergent.

These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing and salt functions.They can also contain other different agents depending on which kind of tablets you choose ("3 in 1", "4 in 1", "5 in 1" etc...)

1.Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness. Follow the manufacturers instructions.

2.Set the "Multi-tab" function.

3.Before the start of the washing programme put the tablet detergent in the detergent dispenser.

NOTE: If the drying results are not satisfactory we recommend that you:

1.Fill up the rinse aid dispenser with rinse aid.

2.Activate the rinse aid dispenser and set the rinse aid dosage to position 2.

If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard detergent system we advise that you:

Deactivate the "Multi-tab" function.

Fill up the dispensers for salt and rinse aid again.

Adjust the water hardness setting to the highest setting perform up to 3 normal washing programmes without loading any dishes.
