Tip: Suitable detergents are available
online via our website or from Cus-
tomer Services → Page 63.
Separate detergents
Separate detergents are products that
do not contain components other than
detergent, e.g. powder detergent or li-
quid detergent.
With powder and liquid detergent the
dosage can be individually adjusted to
the level of soiling of the tableware.
For better washing and drying results
and to avoid damage to the appliance,
please additionally use Special salt
→ Page 30 and Rinse aid → Page 32.
Combined detergent
Besides conventional separate deter-
gents, a number of products are avail-
able with additional functions. These
products contain not only detergent but
also rinse aid and salt replacement
substances (3in1) and, depending on
the combination (4in1, 5in1, ...), addi-
tional components such as glass pro-
tection or stainless steel cleaner.

Description
Liquid detergent works
faster and is recommended
for shorter Programmes
without PreRinse.
Sometimes liquid detergent
may leak out despite the de-
tergent dispenser being
closed. This is not a fault
and is non-critical if you re-
member the following:
¡ Only choose a pro-
gramme without PreR-
inse.
¡ Do not select timer pro-
gramming for starting
the programme.
The dosage can be adjusted
to the level of soiling.
According to manufacturers, combined
detergents generally only function up to
a water hardness of 26°°E. With a wa-
ter hardness above 26°°E you will
need to add special salt and rinse aid.
For the best washing and drying results
we recommend using special salt and
rinse aid from a water hardness of 17°
°E. If you are using combined deter-
gent, the washing programme is adjus-
ted automatically to ensure the best
possible washing and drying result.
