10.2 Using salt, rinse aid and
detergent
• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent
for dishwasher. Other products can
cause damage to the appliance.
• In areas with hard and very hard water
we recommend to use plain
dishwasher detergent (powder, gel,
tablets containing no additional
agents), rinse aid and salt separately
for optimal cleaning and drying
results.
• At least once a month run the
appliance with the use of appliance
cleaner which is particularly suitable
for this purpose.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve
with short programmes. To prevent
detergent residues on the tableware,
we recommend that you use the
tablets with long programmes.
• Do not use more than the correct
quantity of detergent. Refer to the
instructions on the detergent
packaging.
10.3 What to do if you want to
stop using multi-tablets
Before you start to use separately
detergent, salt and rinse aid do the
following procedure.
1. Set the highest level of the water
softener.
2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid
containers are full.
3. Start the shortest programme with a
rinsing phase. Do not add detergent
and do not load the baskets.
4. When the programme is completed,
adjust the water softener according
to the water hardness in your area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse
aid.
6. Activate the rinse aid empty
notification.
10.4
Loading the baskets
• Only use the appliance to wash items
that are dishwasher-safe.
• Do not put in the appliance items
made of wood, horn, aluminium,
pewter and copper.

can absorb water (sponges,
household cloths).
• Remove remaining food from the
items.
• Make soft the remaining burned food
on the items.
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and

not bond together. Mix spoons with
other cutlery.
• Make sure that glasses do not touch
other glasses.
• Put small items in the cutlery basket.
• Put light items in the upper basket.
Make sure that the items do not

installed.

• The spray arms are not clogged.

(unless you use multi- tablets).

used.
10.6 Unloading the baskets
