offers the most efficient useof water and energy consumption.
10.2 Using salt, rinse aid anddetergent• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent
for dishwasher. Other products cancause damage to the appliance.
• In areas with hard and very hardwater we recommend to use plaindishwasher detergent (powder, gel,tablets containing no additionalagents), rinse aid and salt separatelyfor optimal cleaning and dryingresults.
• At least once a month run theappliance with the use of appliancecleaner which is particularly suitablefor this purpose.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolvewith short programmes. To preventdetergent residues on the tableware,we recommend that you use thetablets with long programmes.
• Do not use more than the correctquantity of detergent. Refer to theinstructions on the detergentpackaging.
10.3 What to do if you want tostop using multi-tabletsBefore you start to use separatelydetergent, salt and rinse aid, completethe following steps:1. Set the highest level of the water
softener.2. Make sure that the salt and rinse aid
containers are full.3. Start the shortest programme with a
rinsing phase. Do not add detergentand do not load the baskets.
4. When the programme is completed,adjust the water softener accordingto the water hardness in your area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinseaid.
6. Activate the rinse aid emptynotification.
10.4 Loading the baskets• Use the appliance to wash
dishwasher-safe items only.• Do not wash in the appliance items
made of wood, horn, aluminium,pewter and copper.
