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
programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when
using detergent tablets, to ensure the complete removal of
detergent residuals.
Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket
as this will result in poorer wash results. The tablets
should be placed in the detergent dispenser. 

Concentrated detergent

Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents
can be split into two basic types:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with
concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your
dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the
dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated
detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which
concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same
results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C
programmes.

Combi detergents

If you are using dishwasher detergent that includes the rinse
aid function, this must be placed in the detergent compartment.
In this case the rinse aid dispenser must be empty, in order to
avoid a double dosage.
If in the rinse aid dispenser there is still rinse aid you must wait
until it has finished before using these kind of detergents.

The rinse aid indicator light will always remain illuminated
when the machine is switched on 

(not all dishwasher models

are foreseen with rinse aid indicator light

).

Special salt for dishwasher must still be used.

Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents

General advice

These products are detergents with integrated and combined
detergent/rinse-aid and salt functions.

1. Before using these products you should first check that 

the water hardness in your supply is compatible with 
the use of these products as per the detergent 
manufacturers (on the product packaging).

2. These products should be strictly used according to the 

detergent manufacturers instructions.

3. If you encounter problems when using 3 in 1 products for 

the first time then please contact the detergent 
manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on 
the product packaging).

Special advice

When using combination 3 in 1 products select the "3 in
1" function.

If you decide to turn back to the use of the standard detergent
system we advise that you:

Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dispenser.

Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible 
position and run from 1 to 3 normal washing programmes 
without a load.

Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the 
hardness of the water in your area.
