[. . . ] These products should be strictly used according to the detergent manufacturers instructions. 1 Do not place the tablets in the tub or the cutlery basket as this will result in poorer wash results. If you encounter problems when using "3 in1" products for the first time then please contact the detergent manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on the product packaging). Special Advice When using combination products, the rinse-aid and salt lights are no longer useful. It may be helpful therefore to switch the rinse aid off please note that only some dishwashers have this facility - and selecting the lowest possible setting for water hardness. If you decide to switch to the use of a standard detergent system we advise that you: · Refill both the salt and rinse aid compartments. · Switch the waterhardness setting to the highest possible position and run for three normal cycles without a load. · Readjust the waterhardness setting again according to the conditions for your region (as per the instruction manual). 23 Operating Instructions 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. 2 The use of 50 °C wash 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. Detergent tablets 3 Detergent tablets of different makes dissolve at different speeds. For this reason some detergent tablets cannot develop their full cleaning power during short programmes. Therefore please use wash programmes with pre wash when using detergent tablets. 24 Operating Instructions Selecting the Wash Programme (Programme Table) Choose the most suitable wash programme with the aid of this table: Type of dishes in addition Type of soiling Dinner service and cooking utensils Dessert dishes and coffee service with fragile glasses · lightly soiled - · normally soiled · heavily · normally soiled soiled · dried on left- · dried leftovers, particovers ularly egg white and thickeners particularly suited to the use of concentrated detergents.

Emptying the Dishwasher 3 · The dishes should therefore be allowed to cool down before removing them from the appliance, as hot dishes may be sensitive to knocks. 15 minutes after the end of the programme so that they dry better and can cool down.
