Adding The Detergent; Programming; Choice Of Programmes - Brandt DWE 500 Operating Instructions Manual

Adding the detergent

The washing product container has been
placed in front of the upper basket to make the
machine easier to fill. This means that you can
load the washing powder without bending down
or completely opening the door.
The distributor offers you a choice between using tablets or powder
or liquid detergent.
Before starting the programme :
put the tablet in the upper compartment.
Put the tablet in the outside compartment. Using tablets is
particularly recommended for the BIO 55°C programme and for full
loads of dishes.
Or,
Pull the container to fill with washing powder or liquid and fill
up to:
Minimum setting for slightly dirty dishes
Maximum setting for dirty dishes
Close the container
VERY IMPORTANT: keep all products out of the reach of
children and away from humidity.

performance with ease of programming.

⑦
"Half-load" option
③
Recommended for up to six moderately dirty place settings.
This option reduces the amount of water used in a half-empty machine.
"Fast wash" option
Recommended for slightly dirty, non-greasy or fragile crockery. This option reduces the wash
temperature (except on the "Fragile - 40°C" programme), and the length of the cycle.
The "SPECIAL PANS" Wash option key
This option is adapted to the Intensive programme. A hot prewash and a wash giving emphasis to
the contents of the upper basket are suitable for pans, dishes or stockpots.
"Condenser dry" option
To dry the contents completely, your dish-washer has a condenser drier system.
After the final hot rinse, the steam condenses on the walls of the machine where a cold area has
been created by a curtain of cold water. As soon as the machine stops, you can open the door and
your crockery will be perfectly dry.
