Types of detergents
Damage due to unsuitable
detergents.
Detergents that are not suitable for
domestic dishwashers can cause
damage to the dishwasher or to the
load.
Only use detergents formulated for
domestic dishwashers.
Modern detergents contain various
active ingredients, the most important
of which are:
- Water softening complexing agents
to prevent calcification.
- Alkalis to aid removal of dried-on
soiling.
- Enzymes to break down starch and
loosen protein.
- Oxygen-based bleaching agents to
remove coloured stains (e.g. tea,
coffee, tomato sauce).
Most dishwasher detergents are mildly
alkaline and contain enzymes and
oxygen-based bleaching agents.
There are different types of detergents:
- Powder and liquid gel detergents.
These detergents allow you to adjust
the amount dispensed according to
the size of the load and the level of
soiling.
- Tablet detergents. These are suitable
for most levels of soiling.
As well as the usual detergents,
combination products are also
available.
These contain rinse aid and water
softener (reactivation salt).
Only use these combination detergents
for the water hardness levels
recommended by the manufacturer on
the packaging.
The cleaning and drying performance of
these combination detergents can vary
greatly.
For optimum cleaning and drying
results, use dishwasher detergent and
add salt and rinse aid separately.
