DETERGENT DESCRIPTION
Liquid deter-
gent
Liquid detergent
works faster and is re-
commended for
shorter Programmes
without PreRinse.
Sometimes liquid de-
tergent may leak out
despite the detergent
dispenser being
closed. This is not a
fault and is non-crit-
ical if you remember
the following:
● Only choose a pro-
gramme without
PreRinse.
● Do not select timer
programming for
starting the pro-
gramme.
The dosage can be ad-
justed to the level of
soiling.
Separate detergents
Separate detergents are products that
do not contain components other than
detergent, e.g. powder detergent or li-
quid detergent.
With powder and liquid detergent the
dosage can be individually adjusted to
the level of soiling of the tableware.
For better washing and drying results
and to avoid damage to the appliance,
please additionally use Special salt
→Page28 and Rinse aid →Page30.
Combined detergent
Besides conventional separate deter-
gents, a number of products are avail-
able with additional functions. These
products contain not only detergent but
also rinse aid and salt replacement sub-
stances (3in1) and, depending on the
combination (4in1, 5in1,...), additional
components such as glass protection or
stainless steel cleaner.
According to manufacturers, combined
detergents generally only function up
to a water hardness of 26°E. With a wa-
ter hardness above 26°E you will need
to add special salt and rinse aid. For the
best washing and drying results we re-
commend using special salt and rinse
aid from a water hardness of 17°E. If
you are using combined detergent, the
washing programme is adjusted auto-
matically to ensure the best possible
washing and drying result.
Unsuitable detergents
Do not use detergent which could cause
damage to the appliance or present a
risk to health.
