HINTS AND TIPS

GENERAL
The following hints will ensure optimal cleaning and
drying results in daily use and also help to protect
the environment.
• Remove larger residues of food from the dishes
into the waste bin.
• Do not pre-rinse dishes by hand. When needed,
use the prewash programme (if available) or
select a programme with a prewash phase.
• Always use the whole space of the baskets.
• When loading the appliance, make sure that the
dishes can be completely reached and washed
by the water released from the spray arm
nozzles. Make sure that items do not touch or
cover each other.
• You can use dishwasher detergent, rinse aid
and salt separately or you can use the multi-
tablets (e.g. ''3in1'', ''4in1'', ''All in 1''). Follow the
instructions written on the packaging. Multi-
tablets are usually suitable in areas with a water
hardness up to 21 °dH. In areas exceeding this
limit, rinse aid and salt must also be used. If you
use multi-tablets you can select the Multitab
option (if available). This option increases the
cleaning and drying results with the use of multi-
tablets.
• Select the programme according to the type of
load and degree of soil. With the ECO
5 min
programme you have the most efficient use of
water and energy consumption for crockery and
cutlery with normal soil.
THE WATER SOFTENER
The water softener removes minerals from the
water supply, which would have a detrimental effect
on the washing results and on the appliance.
The higher the content of these minerals, the harder
your water is. Water hardness is measured in
equivalent scales.
The water softener should be adjusted according to
the hardness of the water in your area. Your local
water authority can advise you on the hardness of
the water in your area. It is important to set the right
level of the water softener to assure good washing
results.
USING SALT, RINSE AID AND DETERGENT
• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent for
dishwasher. Other products can cause damage
to the appliance.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short
programmes. To prevent detergent residues on
the tableware, we recommend that you use the
tablets with long programmes.
