10. HINTS AND TIPS

10.1 General

Follow the hints below to ensure optimal

cleaning and drying results in daily use

and to protect the environment.
• Washing dishes in the dishwasher as

instructed in the user manual usually

consumes less water and energy than

washing dishes by hand.

• Load the dishwasher to its full

capacity to save water and energy.

For best cleaning results, arrange

items in the baskets as instructed in

the user manual and do not overload

the baskets.

• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. It

increases the water and energy

consumption. When needed, select a

programme with a prewash phase.

• Remove larger residues of food from

the dishes and empty cups and

glasses before putting them inside the

appliance.

• Soak or slightly scour cookware with

firmly cooked-on or baked-on food

before washing it in the appliance.

• Make sure that items in the baskets

do not touch or cover each other.

Only then can the water completely

reach and wash the dishes.

• You can use dishwasher detergent,

rinse aid and salt separately or you

can use the multi-tablets (e.g. ''All in

1''). Follow the instructions on the

packaging.

• Select a programme according to the

type of load and the degree of soil.

 offers the most efficient use of

water and energy consumption.

• To prevent limescale buildup inside

the appliance:

– Refill the salt container whenever

necessary.

– Use the recommended dosage of

the detergent and rinse aid.

– Make sure that the current level of

the water softener agrees with the

hardness of the water supply.

– Follow the instructions in the

chapter "Care and cleaning".

10.2 Using salt, rinse aid and

detergent

• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent

designed for dishwasher. Other

products can cause damage to the

appliance.

• In areas with hard and very hard

water, we recommend to use basic

dishwasher detergent (powder, gel,

tablets containing no additional

agents), rinse aid and salt separately

for optimal cleaning and drying

results.

• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve

with short programmes. To prevent

detergent residues on the tableware,

we recommend that you use tablets

with long programmes.

• Always use the correct quantity of

detergent. Insufficient dosage of

detergent can result in poor cleaning

results and hard-water filming or

spotting on the items. Using too much

detergent with soft or softened water

results in detergent residues on the

dishes. Adjust the amount of

detergent based on the water

hardness. Refer to the instructions on

the detergent packaging.

• Always use the correct quantity of

rinse aid. Insufficient dosage of rinse

aid decreases the drying results.

Using too much rinse aid results in

bluish layers on the items.

• Make sure that the water softener

level is correct. If the level is too high,

the increased quantity of salt in the

water might result in rust on cutlery.

10.3 What to do if you want to

stop using multi-tablets

Before you start to use separately

detergent, salt and rinse aid, complete

the following steps:

1. Set the highest level of the water

softener.

2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid

containers are full.

3. Start the shortest programme with a

rinsing phase. Do not add detergent

and do put dishes in the baskets.
