Function of the detergent
Dishwashing detergents with their chemical additives are essential for the removal of soils, their decomposition
and removal from the dishwasher. For this purpose the majority of commercial quality dishwashing detergents
are suitable.
Dishwashing detergents
There are 3 types of dishwashing detergents:
1. containing phosphates and chlorine;
2. containing phosphates and without chlorine;
3. without phosphates and without chlorine.
New dishwashing detergents usually do not contain phosphates and so the softening function of the
phosphates is missing. In such a case we recommended the use of a softening salt even when the water
hardness is a mere 6°dH. If you use dishwashing detergents without phosphates and have hard water, this
leads to the frequent appearance of white stains on dishes and glasses. In such a case you will therefore
achieve better results if you add more dishwashing detergent. Chlorine-free dishwashing detergents whiten
only slightly. For this reason strong and colourful stains will not be completely removed. In such a case select
a program with a higher temperature.
Concentrated dishwashing detergents
Based on their chemical composition dishwashing detergents are divided into two basic types:
standard, alkaline dishwashing detergents with caustic additives;
less alkaline dishwashing detergents with natural enzymes.
Using "standard" washing programs in combination with concentrated dishwashing detergents reduces
pollution and is appropriate for your dishes. These programs are specifi cally improved with enzymes, which are
contained in concentrated dishwashing detergents, that can dissolve soils. For this reason you can achieve
the same results with concentrated dishwashing detergents using a "standard" washing program, as you
would achieve only with the use of an "intensive" program.
Dishwashing tablets
The dissolving speed of various brands of dishwashing tablets may diff er. For this reason some tablets may not
dissolve during the short programs and therefore fail to perform their cleaning function. So when using tablets
use the long programs to ensure the removal of all dishwashing detergent remains.
Dishwashing detergent compartment
You must fi ll up the compartment before starting any washing cycle according to the instructions contained in
the dishwashing cycle table. Your dishwasher uses less dishwashing detergent and rinsing aid than an ordinary
dishwasher. Generally a single tablespoon of dishwashing detergent is suffi
cient for a standard wash. For
more heavily soiled dishes you will need more dishwashing detergent. Always add the dishwashing detergent
immediately before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could become damp and subsequently not dissolve
completely.
NOTE
If the lid is closed, press the button. The lid will open.
Always add the dishwashing detergent immediately before starting each washing cycle.
Use only branded dishwashing detergents designed for dishwashers.
