    ▶ So as not to scratch the finish on the appliance, do not use sponges with a rough surface or abrasive cleaning agents.
    ▶ To prevent corrosion, do not use sponge cloths on dishwashers with a stainless steel front or rinse such cloths thoroughly several times before using them for the first time.

Environmental protection and saving energy

Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.
▶ Sort the individual components by type and dispose of them separately.

Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less electricity and less water.
Use the Eco 50 ° program.
The Eco 50 ° program is energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
→ “Programmes”, Page 18 Change the sensor set to the default. Consumption is reduced. → “Sensors”, Page 11

AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical measuring device (light barrier) that measures the turbidity of the rinsing water. You can save water with the AquaSensor.
The use of the AquaSensor depends on the program. If the soiling level is high, the rinsing water is drained off and replaced with fresh water. If the soiling level is lower, the rinsing water is used in the next wash cycle, so reducing water consumption by 3-6litres. In the automatic programs, the temperature and run-time are additionally adjusted to the level of soiling.

Sensors
The sensors adjust the program sequence and strength in the automatic programs depending on the level and type of soiling.
The sensor has different sensitivity settings that can be changed in the basic settings.

Sensor setting Description
SE:00 The optimum setting for a mixed load and heavily soiled tableware.

Saves both energy and water.
SE:01| Adjusts the program strength for effective removal of food remnants even with low soiling levels. Energy and water consumption are adjusted accordingly.
SE:02| Adjusts the program strength for difficult conditions of use, e.g. stubborn dried-on food remnants. Recommended settings when using organic or ecological detergents contain- ing low levels of active agents. Energy and water consumption are adjusted accordingly.

Efficient Dry
The appliance door opens automatically during the drying phase. This ensures a particularly economical drying result. For best drying results wait until the end of the program before unloading the tableware. The program has ended when the display shows “00h:00m”. If the automatic door opening is deactivated, energy consumption increases and the drying phase is usually shortened. → “Overview of basic settings”, Page 36 → “Additional functions”, Page 20

Detergent

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” → on Page 26 and “Rinse aid” → on Page 28 separately. Modern, powerful detergents mainly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes. Enzymes break down starch and remove protein. Oxygen-based bleaching agents are generally used to remove colored marks, e.g. tea or ketchup.

Note: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for each detergent.

Detergent Description
Tabs Tabs are suitable for all cleaning functions and do not need to be

measured out. With shorter “Programmes” → Page 18 tabs sometimes do not dissolve entirely and leave residues of detergent. This may impair the cleaning effect.
Powder detergent gent| Powder detergent is recommended for shorter “Programmes” → Page 18. The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.
Liquid detergent| Liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for shorter “Programmes” → Page 18 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 program without PreRinse.
Do not select timer programming for starting the program.
The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.

Tip: Suitable detergents are available online via our website or from “Customer Service” → Page 60.

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” → on Page 26 and “Rinse aid” → on Page 28.

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 manufacturers, combined detergents generally only function up to 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 program 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.

Detergent Description
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.

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 manufacturers, combined 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 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 programs will run properly with combined detergents.
  • The function of rinse aid is limited to combined detergents. You will generally get better results using a rinse aid.
  • Use tablets with a special drying performance.
