– Pull out the top basket 1* out.
– To lower the basket, press in the left
and then the right lever on the outside
of the basket. In doing so, hold the
sides of the basket along the upper
edge to prevent it from suddenly
dropping.
– To raise the basket, hold the basket on
the sides of the upper edge and lift it
up.
– Before re-inserting the basket again,
ensure that it is at the same height on
both sides. Otherwise, the appliance
door cannot be closed and the upper
spray arm will not be connected to the
water circuit.

Detergent

You can use tablets as well as powder
or liquid detergents for dishwashers, but
never use washing up liquid. The dosage
can be individually adjusted with powder
or a liquid detergent according
to the degree of soiling. Tablets contain
an adequately large amount of active
ingredients for all cleaning tasks. Modern,
powerful detergents predominantly
use a low-alkaline formulation with
phosphate and enzymes. Phosphates
bond the lime in the water. Enzymes break
down starch and remove protein.
Phosphate-free detergents are less
frequent. These have a slightly weaker
lime bonding capacity and require
a higher dosage. To remove coloured
stains (e.g. tea, tomato sauce), oxygen-
based bleaching agents are usually used.
Note
To ensure a good washing result, always
follow the instructions on the detergent
packaging!
If you have further questions,
we recommend that you contact
the detergent manufacturers' helpline.
