Disposing of packagingThe packaging materials are environ-mentally compatible and can be re-cycled.▶ Sort the individual components by

type and dispose of them separ-ately.Information about current disposalmethods are available from yourspecialist dealer or local authority.

Saving energyIf you follow these instructions, yourappliance will use less electricity andless water.

Use the Eco 50° programme.The Eco 50° programme is en-ergy efficient and environmentallyfriendly. → "Programmes", Page 21

If you do not have much tableware towash, use the additional Half Loadfunction.1

The programme will adjust to alower load and consumption willbe reduced. → "Additional functions", Page 23

Consumption is reduced. → "Sensors", Page 14

Zeolith drying automatically helps tosave energy.

→ "Zeolith drying ", Page 13

Zeolith drying The appliance features a Zeolith con-tainer. Zeolith drying lets you saveenergy.Zeolite is a mineral that can storemoisture and heat energy and thenrelease them again.During dishwashing heat energy isused to heat up the washing waterand dry the mineral.During the drying phase moisturefrom the interior of the dishwasher isstored in the mineral and heat energyis released. The heat energy is blownout into the interior of the dishwasherwith dry air. This speeds up and im-proves drying.Zeolith drying therefore saves a greatdeal of energy.Tip: To avoid impairing Zeolith dryingperformance, do not position table-ware parts directly in front of the in-take opening or the blow opening ofthe Zeolith container.Do not position heat-sensitive table-ware parts directly in front of the blowopening of the Zeolith container. → "Appliance", Page 17

AquaSensor1

The AquaSensor is an optical meas-uring device (light barrier) whichmeasures the turbidity of the washingwater. You can save water with theAquaSensor.Use of the AquaSensor depends onthe programme. If the soiling level islow, the washing water is used in thenext wash cycle, so reducing waterconsumption by 3-6 litres. If the soil-

DetergentFind out which detergents are suit-able for your appliance.

Suitable detergentsOnly use detergents that are suitablefor dishwashers. Both separate andcombined detergents are suitable.For optimum washing and drying res-ults, use separate detergent, addingSpecial salt → Page 32 and Rinse aid→ Page 33 separately.Modern, powerful detergents mainlyuse a low-alkaline formulation withenzymes. Enzymes break downstarch and remove protein. Oxygen-based bleaching agents are generallyused to remove coloured marks, e.g.tea or ketchup.Note: Follow the manufacturer's in-structions for each detergent.

Detergent DescriptionTabs Tabs are suitable for all

cleaning functions and donot need to be measuredout.With shorter Programmestabs sometimes do not dis-solve entirely and leaveresidues of detergent. Thismay impair the cleaning ef-fect.

Powder deter-gent

Powder detergent is re-commended for shorterProgrammes.The dosage can be adjus-ted to the level of soiling.

Detergent DescriptionLiquid detergent Liquid detergent works

faster and is recommen-ded for shorter Pro-grammes without PreR-inse.Sometimes liquid deter-gent may leak out despitethe detergent dispenserbeing closed. This is not afault and is non-critical ifyou remember the follow-ing:¡ Only choose a pro-

gramme without PreR-inse.

¡ Do not select timer pro-gramming for startingthe programme.

The dosage can be adjus-ted to the level of soiling.

Tip: Suitable detergents are availableonline via our website or from Cus-tomer Services → Page 61.

Separate detergentsSeparate detergents are productsthat do not contain components otherthan detergent, e.g. powder deter-gent or liquid detergent.With powder and liquid detergent thedosage can be individually adjustedto the level of soiling of the table-ware.For better washing and drying resultsand to avoid damage to the appli-ance, please additionally use Specialsalt → Page 32 and Rinse aid→ Page 33.

Combined detergentBesides conventional separate deter-gents, a number of products areavailable with additional functions.These products contain not only de-tergent but also rinse aid and salt re-placement substances (3in1) and,

en Detergent

36

depending on the combination (4in1,5in1, ...), additional components suchas glass protection or stainless steelcleaner.According to manufacturers, com-bined detergents generally only func-tion up to a water hardness of 26°°E. With a water hardness above 26°°E you will need to add special saltand rinse aid. For the best washingand drying results we recommendusing special salt and rinse aid froma water hardness of 17°°E. If you areusing combined detergent, the wash-ing programme is adjusted automat-ically to ensure the best possiblewashing and drying result.

Unsuitable detergentsDo not use detergent which couldcause damage to the appliance orpresent a risk to health.

Detergent DescriptionHand washing-upliquid

Hand washing-up liquidcan cause increased froth-ing and damage the appli-ance.

Chlorine residue on table-ware may present a risk tohealth.

Information on detergentsFollow the instructions on detergentsin everyday use.¡ Detergents marked as "organic" or

"ecological" (environmentallyfriendly) generally contain lowerlevels of active agents or com-pletely dispense with certain sub-stances. The cleaning effect maybe restricted here.

¡ Set the rinse aid and the watersoftening system to the separatedetergent or combined detergentin use.

¡ According to manufacturers, com-bined detergents with salt replace-ment substances can only be usedup to a certain water hardness,usually 26 °E, without adding spe-cial salt. For the best washing anddrying results we recommend us-ing special salt from a water hard-ness of 17 °E.

¡ To prevent sticking, only touch de-tergents in a water-soluble pouchwith dry hands and only ever placethem in a dry detergent dispenser.

¡ Even if the rinse aid and specialsalt refill indicators light up, wash-ing programmes will run properlywith combined detergents.

¡ The function of rinse aid is limitedwith combined detergents. You willgenerally get better results usingrinse aid.

¡ Use tablets with a special dryingperformance.
