Water softening system

To ensure good washing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. containing low amounts of lime, otherwise white limescale will be deposited on the utensils and inner container.

Tap water above 9° Clarke must be softened. The water is softened with salt

(regeneration salt) in the water softening system of the dishwasher.

The setting and therefore the required amount of salt depends on the degree of hardness of your tap water (see table).

Setting

The amount of salt dispensed can be set from

‹

to

ˆ

Utensils

Not suitable

– Cutlery and utensils made of wood.

– Delicate decorative glasses, craft and antique utensils. These decors are not dishwasher-proof.

– Plastic parts not resistant to heat.

– Copper and tin utensils.

– Utensils which are soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or ink.

Aluminium and silver parts have a tendency to discolour and fade during the wash cycle. Even some types of glass

(e.g. crystal glass objects) may turn cloudy after many wash cycles.

Glass and utensil damage

Causes:

– Glass type and glass production process.

– Chemical composition of the detergent.

– Water temperature of the wash programme.

Recommendation:

– Use only glasses and porcelain which the manufacturer designates as dishwasher-proof.

– Use a detergent which protects utensils.

– Take glass and cutlery out of the dishwasher as soon as possible after the programme ends.

en

Loading the dishwasher

– Remove large food remnants. It is not necessary to prerinse utensils under running water.

– Place the utensils so that

– they are secure and cannot tip over.

– all utensils with their openings face down.

– parts with curves or indentations are at an angle, thereby allowing water to drain.

– does not obstruct rotation of the two spray arms

12

and

1:

.

Very small utensils should not be washed in the machine, as they may fall out of the baskets.

Unloading the dishwasher

To prevent water from dripping off the upper basket onto the utensils in the lower basket, it is recommended to empty the appliance from the bottom up.

Hot utensils are sensitive to shock!

Therefore, when the programme ends, leave the utensils to cool down in the dishwasher until they can be handled.

Detergent

You can use tablets as well as powder or liquid detergents for dishwashers, but never use washing up liquid. The dosage can be individually adjusted with powder or a liquid detergent according to the degree of soiling. Tablets contain an adequately large amount of active ingredients for all cleaning tasks. Modern, powerful detergents predominantly use a low-alkaline formulation with phosphate and enzymes. Phosphates bond the lime in the water. Enzymes break down starch and remove protein.

Phosphate-free detergents are less frequent. These have a slightly weaker lime bonding capacity and require a higher dosage. To remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, tomato sauce), oxygenbased bleaching agents are usually used.

Note

To ensure a good washing result, always follow the instructions on the detergent packaging!

If you have further questions, we recommend that you contact the detergent manufacturers’ helpline.

ã=

Warning

Read and observe the safety information and instructions for use on the packaging for cleaning and rinsing agents.

Adding detergent

– If the detergent dispenser

9"

is still closed, press the lock

1b

to open the detergent dispenser.

Pour detergent into the dry detergent dispenser

9"

. Dosage: see manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging.

The graduated detergent dispenser

9"

helps you add the correct amount of powder or liquid detergent.

Usually 20 ml–25 ml are adequate for normal soiling. If using tablets, one tablet is adequate.

– Close cover on the detergent dispenser. To do this, (1) push the dispenser cover shut and (2) press gently on the end until the catch engages audibly.

If using tablets, please refer to the manufacturer’s packaging where to put the tablets (e.g. cutlery basket, detergent dispenser, etc.). Even if using tablets, ensure that the detergent dispenser cover is closed.

12

Tip

If the utensils are only lightly soiled, slightly less than the indicated amount of detergent is usually adequate.

Suitable detergents and care products can be purchased online via our website or via customer service (see back page).

Combination detergent

Apart from conventional detergents (Solo), a number of products are offered with additional functions. These products contain not only the detergent but also rinse-aid and salt replacement substances

(3in1) and, depending on the combination

(4in1, 5in1, etc.), additional components such as glass protection or stainless steel cleaner. Combination detergents function only up to a specific degree of hardness

(usually 26° Clarke). Over this limit salt and rinse-aid must be added.

As soon as combined detergents are used, the rinse programme is adjusted automatically to ensure the best possible rinsing and drying result.

en

Notes

– You will obtain optimum rinsing and drying results by using solo detergents and applying salt and rinse aid separately.

– If programmes are short, tablets may not have full cleaning effect due to different dissolving properties and there may even be undissolved detergent residue. It is recommended to use washing powder for these programmes.

– The Intensive programme (on some models) requires one tab only. When using washing powder, you can apply some of this cleaning agent to the inside of the appliance’s door.

– Even if the rinse-aid and/or salt refill indicator is lit, the rinse programme will run correctly with combined detergents.

– If using detergents in a water-soluble protective cover: Take hold of the cover with dry hands only and put the detergent into an absolutely dry detergent dispenser only, otherwise the detergent may stick.

– If you switch from combined detergents to solo detergents, ensure that the water softening system and amount of rinse aid have been set to the correct value.

Maintenance and care

A regular inspection and maintenance of your machine will help to prevent faults.

This saves time and prevents problems.

Overall condition of the machine

– Check spray arm for grease and limescale deposits.

If you find such deposits:

– Fill detergent dispenser with detergent.

Start the appliance without utensils in the programme with the highest rinsing temperature.

Clean the appliance with detergents/ appliance cleaners which are particularly suitable for use with dishwashers.

– Regularly clean door seal with a damp cloth.
