Switching the rinse aid sys-
tem off

If you find the rinse aid refill indicator
irritating, e.g. when using combined
detergents with a rinse aid compon-
ent, you can switch the rinse aid sys-
tem off.

Tip: 

The function of rinse aid is lim-

ited with combined detergents. You
will generally get better results using
rinse aid.

able for your appliance.

Suitable detergents

Only use detergents that are suitable
for dishwashers. Both separate and
combined detergents are suitable.
For optimum washing and drying res-
ults, use separate detergent, adding
"Special salt" → 

Page 23

 and "Rinse

aid" → 

Page 25

 separately.

Modern, powerful detergents mainly
use a low-alkaline formulation with
enzymes. Enzymes break down
starch and remove protein. Oxygen-

based bleaching agents are generally
used to remove coloured marks, e.g.
tea or ketchup.

Note: 

Follow the manufacturer's in-

structions for each detergent.

Description

Tabs

Tabs are suitable for all
cleaning functions and do
not need to be measured
out.
With shorter "Pro-
grammes" 

→ 

Page 17

 tabs

sometimes do not dissolve
entirely and leave residues
of detergent. This may im-
pair the cleaning effect.

Powder deter-
gent

Powder detergent is re-
commended for shorter
"Programmes" 

→ 

Page 17

.

The dosage can be adjus-
ted to the level of soiling.

Liquid detergent

Liquid detergent works
faster and is recommen-
ded for shorter "Pro-
grammes" 

→ 

Page 17

without PreRinse.
Sometimes liquid deter-
gent may leak out despite
the detergent dispenser
being closed. This is not a
fault and is non-critical if
you remember the follow-
ing:

¡

Only choose a pro-
gramme without PreR-
inse.

¡

Do not select timer pro-
gramming for starting
the programme.

The dosage can be adjus-
ted to the level of soiling.

Tip: 

Suitable detergents are available

online via our website or from "Cus-
tomer Service" →
