Proper use of detergent
Use only detergents designed for use in dishwashers. Store detergents in a dry and clean place. Pour the
powder detergent in the dispenser just before dishwashing.
Detergent dosage
Fill the dispenser with detergent. Markings indicate the correct dose,
as shown:
1
Compartment for detergent for the main washing cycle. The
value “MIN” represents about 20 g of the detergent.
2
Compartment for the detergent for the pre-wash cycle, about 5 g
of the detergent.
When dispensing and storing detergents, make sure to follow the
manufacturer's instructions on the packaging.
Push the lid until it locks.
If the dishes are heavily soiled, fi ll the detergent compartment of the prewash cycle also. The agent will start
to work during prewash.
Note:
• In the program table you will fi nd information about dosage of detergent for each program. Please note
that due to the degree of soiling of the dishes and the hardness of the water some diff erences may occur.
• Read the recommendations of the manufacturer on the detergent’s packaging.
DETERGENTS
There are three kinds of detergents
1. With phosphates and chlorine
2. With phosphates without chlorine
3. Without phosphates and without chlorine
New powder detergents usually do not contain phosphates. For this reason there is not water softening by
phosphates. In this case it is recommend to fi ll the salt container, even if the water hardness is only 6°dH. When
using phosphate-free detergent with hard water, on the dishes and glass often appear white spots. In this case
you can achieve better results, when you add larger amount of detergent. Chlorine-free detergents bleach
less. Dark coloured stains may not be removed completely. In this case, run a program with higher working
temperature.
Using the “3 in 1” tablets
General recommendations
These products are detergents with integrated rinse aid and softener (salt).
1. You should make sure prior to using these products that the hardness of your water allows the use of the
tablets (see the recommendation of the manufacturer on the product package).
2. These products should be used exactly according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
3. If you encounter problems when fi rst using the “3in1” product, contact an authorized service center.
Special recommendation
• When using combined products, the rinse aid and the softener are not eff ective. It could be useful to set
the lowest possible water hardness.
Selecting the “3in1” function
1. Press the power button to switch the dishwahser on and select the 3in1 washing program (press the
function button ALT
4
so that the 3in1 mode indicator starts fl ashing).
2. Press Start/Pause to start the program 3in1. The indicator 3in1 will be on.
