Detergent
Detergent with its chemical ingredients are necessary to remove dirt, crush dirt and transport it out
of the dishwasher.
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry.
Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.
Detergents
There are 3 sorts of detergents
1.With phosphate and with chlorine
2.With phosphate and without chlorine
3.Without phosphate and without chlorine
Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate. Thus the water softener function of
phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt container even when
the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard
water often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to
reach better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strong and coloured spots
will not be removed completely. In this case please choose a program with a higher temperature.
Concentrated Detergent
Based on their chemical composition, detergents can be split in two basic types:
•
conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
•
low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes
Detergent Tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some
detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during short programs.
Therefore please use long programs when using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal
of detergent residuals.
Detergent Dispenser
The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle following the instructions
provided in the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinse aid than a
conventional dishwasher. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash
load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting
the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.
