Different kinds of detergent

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 programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.

Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent dispenser.

Concentrated detergent

Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be split into two basic types:

-conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.

-low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes. The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C programmes.

Combi detergents

If you are using dishwasher detergent that includes the rinse aid function, this must be placed in the detergent compartment. In this case the rinse aid dispenser must be empty, in order to avoid a double dosage.

If in the rinse aid dispenser there is still rinse aid you must wait until it has finished before using these kind of detergents.

The rinse aid indicator light will always remain illuminated when the machine is switched on (not all dishwasher models are foreseen with rinse aid indicator light).

Special salt for dishwasher must still be used.

Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents

General advice

These products are detergents with integrated and combined detergent/rinse-aid and salt functions.

1.Before using these products you should first check that the water hardness in your supply is compatible with the use of these products as per the detergent manufacturers (on the product packaging).

2.These products should be strictly used according to the detergent manufacturers instructions.

3.If you encounter problems when using 3 in 1 products for the first time then please contact the detergent manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on the product packaging).

Special advice

When using combination 3 in 1 products select the "3 in 1" function.

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

●Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dispenser.

●Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible position and run from 1 to 3 normal washing programmes without a load.

●Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the hardness of the water in your area.
