Rinse aid and detergent
63
8.2 Rinse aid
Rinse aid is necessary to ensure that water on the items being washed drains off after washing as a thin film.
This ensures that the wash items dry quickly.
Rinse aid is automatically dispensed using a dosing device.
8.3 Detergent
Caution
Do not use acidic detergents.
Do not use any foaming products (e.g. manual washing-up liquid) for treating the items being
washed, as these will build up in the machine.
A detergent is necessary to ensure that the leftovers and dirt on the wash items are cleaned.
Detergents can be dosed as follows:
Manually as detergent powder
Automatically as liquid detergent
INFO
The detergent dosing device is not included in the scope of delivery of all machines.

IMPORTANT
Only deposit detergent powder when the machine is ready for operation.
