Different kinds of detergent
Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets of different brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason
some detergent tablets cannot dissolve and develop their full cleaning power during
short programmes. Therefore please use long programmes when using detergent
tablets, to ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
Do not place the tablets in the tub or in the cutlery basket as this will result in
poorer wash results. The tablets should be placed in the detergent dispenser.
Concentrated detergent
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be split into two
basic types:
- conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components.
- low alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents
reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially
matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated
detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which concentrated detergents
are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using
65°C programmes.
Combi detergents
If you are using dishwasher detergent that includes the rinse aid function, this must
be placed in the detergent compartment.
In this case the rinse aid compartment must be empty in order to avoid a double
dosage.
If in the rinse aid dispenser there is still rinse aid you must wait until it has finished
before using detergent that contains rinse aid.
