The bleaching effect of chlorine-free
detergents is lower than that of deter-
gents containing chlorine. This may re-
sult in increased tea stains or discolour-
ation on plastic items. Appearances of
this nature are generally caused by the
detergent used and are not attributable
to any malfunctioning of the dish-
washer itself.
Preventative measures:
– Increase the amount of detergent
used for a greater bleaching effect.
– If available, change to a detergent
containing chlorine (type 1).
Should you experience difficulties when
using these types of products, please
contact the detergent manufacturer’s
advisory service.
Warning
Avoid inhalation of powder deter-
gents. Dishwasher detergents con-
tain irritant or corrosive ingredients.
They can cause burning in the
mouth and throat if swallowed, or in-
hibit breathing. Consult a doctor im-
mediately if detergent has been
swallowed or inhaled.
Keep children away from deter-
gents and from the dishwasher
when the door is open. There could
still be detergent residues in the
cabinet.
To avoid the danger of children com-
ing into contact with the dishwasher
detergent only add detergent just
before starting the programme and
close the door, activating the child
safety lock.
To achieve optimum results distribute
the required amount of detergent, de-
pending on the type of detergent and
the programme selected, proportionally
between compartments I and II of the
dispenser.
It is essential to follow the instructions
given in the programme chart at the
end of the operating instructions.
