Operation

Detergent



Only use detergents formulated

for domestic dishwashers. Do not

use washing-up liquid.

Active ingredients

Modern detergents contain various ac‐

tive ingredients, the most important of

which are:

– Complexing agents to prevent calcifi‐

cation.

– Alkalis to aid the removal of dried on

soiling.

– Enzymes to break down starch and

loosen protein.

– Oxygen based bleaching agents to

remove coloured stains (e.g. tea, cof‐

fee, tomato sauce).

Most dishwasher detergents are mildly

alkaline and contain enzymes and oxy‐

gen based bleaching agents.
Types of detergent:

– Powder and liquid gel detergents.

These detergents allow you to adjust

the amount dispensed according to

the amount of load and level of soil‐

ing.

– Tab detergents. These are suitable

for most levels of soiling.

You can also buy combination products

(see "Programme options - Detergent‐

Agent", if applicable).

In addition to detergent, these products

contain rinse aid and salt substitutes.

They are available as "3 in 1" or when

they also contain other components

such as glass and stainless steel pro‐

tective additives and enhanced clean‐

ing power, as "5 in 1", "7 in 1", "All in 1"

etc.

Refer to the manufacturer's packaging

as to whether combination products are

suitable for the water hardness level in

your area.

Please note that the cleaning and dry‐

ing results of combination detergents

can vary greatly.

For optimum cleaning and drying re‐

sults, use Miele dishwasher detergent

and add Miele salt and Miele rinse aid

separately. See "Optional accesso‐

ries".
