Detergent
12.1 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 → Page 25 and Rinse aid → Page 27
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.
Tip: Suitable detergents are available online via our website or from
Customer Service → Page 50.
Tabs
Tabs 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.
Liquid detergent
Liquid 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 programme without PreRinse.
- Do not select timer programming for starting the programme.
The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.
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 → Page 25 and Rinse aid → Page 27.
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, depending on the combination (4in1, 5in1,
…), additional components such as glass protection or stainless steel cleaner.
According to the 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 wash- ing 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.
12.2 Unsuitable detergents
Do not use detergent which could cause damage to the appliance or present a
risk to health.
Hand washing-up liquid
Hand washing-up liquid can cause increased frothing and damage the appliance.
Detergent containing chlorine
Chlorine residue on tableware may present a risk to health.
12.3 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.
- According to the manufacturers, combined detergents with salt re- placement 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 detergents 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 a separate rinse aid.
- Use tablets with a special drying performance.
12.4 Adding detergent
- To open the detergent dispenser, press the locking latch.
- Add the detergent to the dry detergent dispenser.
- Close the lid of the detergent dispenser.
The lid clicks into position.
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.
Tip: If you use powder detergent and select a program with pre-rinse, you
can also add a little detergent to the interior door of the appliance.
Tableware
Only clean tableware that is suitable for dishwashers.
Note: Decorated glassware and parts made of aluminium or silver may fade
or discolour with dishwashing.
Delicate types of glass may turn cloudy after a few washing cycles.
13.1 Damage to glass and tableware
Only put glasses and china in the dishwasher if it is marked as dishwasher-
safe by the manufacturer.
Avoid damage to glass and tableware.

¡ Decorated glassware, antique and hand-crafted tableware
¡ Plastic parts not resistant to heat
¡ Tableware made from copper or tin
¡ Tableware soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or paint
¡ Very small items of tableware| Only put tableware in the dishwasher if it is
marked as dishwasher-safe by the
manufacturer.
The chemical composition of detergent causes damage.| Use a detergent marked
by the manufacturer as gentle on tableware.
Highly caustic alkaline or highly acidic cleaning solutions, in particular
commercial or industrial cleaners, are not safe to use in the dishwasher with
aluminium.| If you are using highly caustic alkaline or highly acidic cleaning
agents, in particular commercial or industrial cleaning agents, do not put
aluminium parts in the dishwasher interior.
The water temperature of the programme is too high.| Select a programme with
