Combination detergent

Apart from conventional detergents (Solo), a number of
products are offered with additional functions. These
products contain not only the detergent but also rinse-
aid and salt replacement substances (3in1) and,
depending on the combination (4in1, 5in1, ...),
additional components such as glass protection or
stainless steel cleaner. Combination detergents
function only up to a specific degree of hardness
(usually 21°dH). Over this limit salt and rinse-aid must
be added.
As soon as combined detergents are used, the rinse
programme is adjusted automatically to ensure the best
possible rinsing and drying result.
Notes
If you want to add more utensils after the programme
▯
has started, do not use the tablet collecting tray 1B
as a handle for the upper basket. The tablet could
already be there and you will touch the partially
dissolved tablet.
Do not place small parts for washing in the tablet
▯
collecting tray 1B; this prevents the tablet from
dissolving evenly.
You will obtain optimum rinsing and drying results
▯
by using solo detergents and applying salt and rinse
aid separately.
If programmes are short, tablets may not have full
▯
cleaning effect due to different dissolving properties
and there may even be undissolved detergent
residue. It is recommended to use washing powder
for these programmes.
24
The dosing of a tablet is adequate for the "Intensive"
▯
programme (for some models). When using washing
powder, you can apply some of this cleaning agent
to the inside of the appliance's door.
Even if the rinse-aid and/or salt refill indicator is lit,
▯
the rinse programme will run correctly with combined
detergents.
If using detergents in a water-soluble protective
▯
cover: Take hold of the cover with dry hands only
and put the detergent into an absolutely dry
detergent dispenser only, otherwise the detergent
may stick.
If you switch from combined detergents to solo
▯
detergents, ensure that the water softening system
and amount of rinse aid have been set to the correct
value.
Biological/eco detergents: Detergent products
▯
identified as "Bio" or "Eco" (to protect the
environment) usually use lower quantities of active
agents or completely dispense with certain
substances. The cleaning effect of such products
may occasionally be restricted.
