10.2 Using salt, rinse aid and
detergent
• Only use salt, rinse aid and detergent
designed for dishwasher. Other products
can cause damage to the appliance.
• In areas with hard and very hard water, we
recommend to use basic dishwasher
detergent (powder, gel, tablets containing
no additional agents), rinse aid and salt
separately for optimal cleaning and drying
results.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with
short programmes. To prevent detergent
residues on the tableware, we recommend
that you use tablets with long
programmes.
• Always use the correct quantity of
detergent. Insufficient dosage of detergent
can result in poor cleaning results and
hard-water filming or spotting on the items.
Using too much detergent with soft or
softened water results in detergent
residues on the dishes. Adjust the amount
of detergent based on the water hardness.
Refer to the instructions on the detergent
packaging.
• Always use the correct quantity of rinse
aid. Insufficient dosage of rinse aid
decreases the drying results. Using too
much rinse aid results in bluish layers on
the items.
• Make sure that the water softener level is
correct. If the level is too high, the
increased quantity of salt in the water
might result in rust on cutlery.
10.3 What to do if you want to stop
using multi-tablets
Before you start to use separately detergent,
salt and rinse aid, complete the 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 detergent and
do put dishes in the baskets.
4. When the programme is complete, adjust
the water softener according to the water
hardness in your area.
5. Adjust the released quantity of rinse aid.

10.4 Loading the baskets

• Always use the whole space of 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 as they could crack, warp, get
