Bio Wash Programmes and Concentrated Detergents
Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be
split into two basic types:
Conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components
Weak alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes.
2
The use of BIO wash programmes in conjunction with concentrated
detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; the BIO wash
programmes are specially matched to the soil dissolving properties of
the enzymes in the concentrated detergent. It is for this reason that
BIO wash programmes can achieve the same results at 50 °C that can
otherwise only be achieved using 65 °C programmes.
During BIO programmes the water is briefly heated to 60 °C so that the
active oxygen becomes effective.

Detergent tablets from different manufacturers dissolve at different
rates. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot develop their full
cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use normal
programmes with pre wash when using detergent tablets.
Detergent recommendations
For best results we recommend the use of Finish detergent, rinse aid
and salt.
AUTO 65° and AUTO BIO 50° Wash Programmes
During the AUTOMATIC programmes, the amount of soiling on the
dishes is determined by the amount of clouding of the water. If the
dishes are heavily soiled, they are pre-washed and two rinses also per-
formed. If the dishes are only lightly soiled, the dishes are not pre-
washed and only one rinse is performed.
This ensures the dishes receive the best wash cycle and conserves elec-
tricity and water.
