Water softening system/special salt
To ensure good rinsing results, the
dishwasher requires soft water, i.e.
water which is low in lime, otherwise
limescale will be deposited on the
utensils and interior container. Tap
water above 7° dH (1.2 mmol/l) must
be softened. The water is softened with
special salt (regeneration salt) in the
water softening system
of the dishwasher. The setting and
therefore the required amount of salt
depends on the degree of hardness of
your tap water (see following water
hardness table).

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.
:Warning
Risk of injury and damage due to
non-observance of the safety
instructions for detergent and
rinse-aid products!
Always follow the safety instructions for
detergent products and rinse-aid
products.

4. Close cover on the detergent
dispenser.
Cover “clicks” into position.
Tip: If the utensils are only lightly
soiled, slightly less than the indicated
amount of detergent is usually
adequate.
Suitable detergents and care products
can be purchased online via our
website or via customer service (see
back page).
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.
&/,&.
The detergent dispenser opens
automatically at the optimum time
depending on the programme. The
powder or liquid detergent is
distributed in the appliance and is
dissolved, the tablet falls into the
tablet collecting tray where it
dissolves in doses.

en Detergent
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.
■ 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.

AquaSensor *
AquaSensor
* depending on the features of your
dishwasher
The Aqua sensor is an optical
measuring device (light barrier) which
measures the turbidity of the rinsing
water.
The AquaSensor is used according
to the programme. If the AquaSensor is
active, “clean” rinsing water can be
transferred to the next rinse bath and
water consumption can be reduced by
3–6 litres. If the turbidity is greater,
the water is drained and is replaced
with fresh water. In the automatic
programmes the temperature
and running time can also be adjusted
to the degree of soiling.
Time display
The running time is determined during
the programme by the water
temperature, the number of utensils as
well as the degree of soiling and may
vary (depending on the selected
programme). You can change the time
display in time or hours/minutes so that
the remaining running time of the rinsing
progamme appears in the display
window “Ready at” (for example 15:20
hours) or “Ready in” (for example 3:25).

Operating the appliance en
Sensor setting
The programme sequence is optmised
in Auto programmes with the aid of
sensors. The sensors adjust the
programme strength of Auto
programmes depending on the amount
and type of soiling. You can adjust the
sensitivity of the sensors in 3 stages.
Standard: This setting is ideal for a
mixed load and heavily soiled utensils,
but also saves energy and water.
Sensitive: This setting adjusts the
programme strength for the effective
removal of food remnants, even if the
amount of soiling is low. The energy and
water consumption is adjusted
accordingly.
Very sensitive: This setting adjusts the
programme strength for difficult
conditions of use, for example firmly
dried on food remnants. This setting is
recommended if using biological or eco
detergents which contain lower
amounts of active agents. The energy
and water consumption is adjusted
accordingly.
extraDry
The final rinse uses a higher
temperature which improves the drying
result. The running time may increase
slightly. (Caution if utensils are delicate!)
You can switch the extraDry function on
or off.
Note: When ExtraDry function is
switched on, Eco drying is deactivated.
