Regeneration of the water
softening system
In order to obtain fault-free function of
the water softening system, the appliance performs reheating of the water
softening system at regular intervals.
Regeneration of the water softening
system takes place before the end of
the main rinse cycle in all programmes. It will increase the run time
and consumption values, e.g. water
and electricity.
Overview of consumption values with regeneration the water
softening system
Here you can find an overview of the maximum additional running time and
consumption values during regeneration of the water softening system.
You can find the column applicable to your model in the quick reference guide

Detergent
Detergent
Find out which detergents are suitable for your appliance.
Suitable detergents
Only use detergents that are suitable
for dishwashers. Both separate and
combined detergents are suitable.
For optimum washing and drying results, use separate detergent, adding
Special salt →Page28 and Rinse aid
→Page30 separately.
Modern, powerful detergents mainly
use a low-alkaline formulation with
enzymes. Enzymes break down
starch and remove protein. Oxygenbased bleaching agents are generally
used to remove coloured marks, e.g.
tea or ketchup.
Note:Follow the manufacturer's instructions for each detergent.
DetergentDescription
TabsTabs are suitable for all
cleaning functions and do
not need to be measured
out.
With shorter Programmes
tabs sometimes do not dissolve entirely and leave
residues of detergent. This
may impair the cleaning effect.
Powder detergent
Powder detergent is recommended for shorter
Programmes.
The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.
DetergentDescription
Liquid detergentLiquid detergent works
faster and is recommended for shorter Programmes without PreRinse.
Sometimes liquid detergent may leak out despite
the detergent dispenser
being closed. This is not a
fault and is non-critical if
you remember the following:
¡ Only choose a pro-
gramme without PreRinse.
¡ Do not select timer pro-
gramming for starting
the programme.
The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.
Tip:Suitable detergents are available
online via our website or from Customer Services →Page54.
Separate detergents
Separate detergents are products
that do not contain components other
than detergent, e.g. powder detergent or liquid 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 →Page28 and Rinse aid
→Page30.
Combined detergent
Besides conventional separate detergents, a number of products are
available with additional functions.
These products contain not only detergent but also rinse aid and salt replacement substances (3in1) and,
31
en Detergent
15 ml
25 ml
50 ml
depending on the combination (4in1,
5in1,...), additional components such
as glass protection or stainless steel
cleaner.
According to manufacturers, combined detergents generally only function up to a water hardness of 26°E.
With a water 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 detergent, the washing
programme is adjusted automatically
to ensure the best possible washing
and drying result.
Unsuitable detergents
Do not use detergent which could
cause damage to the appliance or
present a risk to health.
DetergentDescription
Hand washing-up
liquid
Detergent containing chlorine
Hand washing-up liquid
can cause increased frothing and damage the appliance.
Chlorine residue on tableware may present a risk to
health.
¡ According to manufacturers, com-
bined detergents with salt replacement substances can only be used
up to a certain water hardness,
usually 26°E, without adding special salt. For the best washing and
drying results we recommend using special salt from a water hardness of 17°E.
¡ To prevent sticking, only touch de-
tergents in a water-soluble pouch
with dry hands and only ever place
them in a dry detergent dispenser.
¡ Even if the rinse aid and special
salt refill indicators light up, washing programmes will run properly
with combined detergents.
¡ The function of rinse aid is limited
with combined detergents. You will
generally get better results using
rinse aid.
¡ Use tablets with a special drying
performance.
Adding detergent
1. To open the detergent dispenser,
press the locking latch.
2. Add the detergent to the dry deter-
gent dispenser.
Information on detergents
Follow the instructions on detergents
in everyday use.
¡ Detergents marked as "organic" or
"ecological" (environmentally
friendly) generally contain lower
levels of active agents or completely dispense with certain substances. The cleaning effect may
be restricted here.
¡ Set the rinse aid and the water
softening system to the separate
detergent or combined detergent
in use.
32
If you are using tablets, one is
enough. Insert the tablets in a horizontal position.
Tableware en
If you are using powder or liquid
detergent, follow the manufacturer's instructions and quantities
for dosage in the detergent dispenser.
20ml–25ml detergent is sufficient for normal soiling. If tableware is only lightly soiled, slightly
less than the amount of detergent
specified is usually sufficient.
3. Close the lid of the detergent dis-
penser.
a The lid clicks into position.
a The detergent dispenser will open
automatically at the optimum time
during the programme. Powder or
liquid detergent will spread around
the washing tank and dissolve
there. Tablets will fall into the tablet
collecting tray and dissolve in the
right dosage. In order to ensure
that tablets can dissolve evenly, do
not place any other objects in the
tablet collecting tray.
