John Lewis JLDWS1202 Concentrated detergents, Detergent tablets, Using 3in1 Detergents

Concentrated detergents

Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet or powder form.

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

Detergent tablets

3 Detergent tablets from different manufacturers dissolve at different rates. For this reason, some detergent tablets do not attain their full cleaning power during short cycles. Therefore please use dishwashing cycles with pre-wash when using detergent tablets.

Using 3in1 Detergents

These products are detergents with a combined cleaning, rinsing and salt function.

1.Check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hard- ness. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.

2.Place detergent just in the detergent dispenser.

3 If you use 3 in1 detergent, it may come about because of the different quality standards in the detergent, that the dishes do not dry suffi- ciently.

If so, proceed as follows (see section “Adding rinse aid”):

•Fill up the dispenser (if this is empty) with rinse aid.

•Set rinse aid dosage to “2” mechanically.

•Activate rinse aid dispenser.

If you want to stop using 3in1 products, please do the following:

•Fill up the dispensers for salt and rinse aid again.

•Switch the water softener to the highest setting and perform up to three normal cycles without loading any dishes.

•Then set the water softener to the water hardness in your area.
