13 Detergent
13.1 Suitable detergents
Only use detergents that are suitable
for dishwashers. Both separate and
combined detergents are suitable.
For optimum washing and drying res-
ults, use separate detergent, adding
Special salt → Page 24 and Rinse aid
→ Page 26 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 coloured marks, e.g.
tea or ketchup.
Note: Follow the manufacturer's in-
structions for each detergent.

Description
Tabs are suitable for
all cleaning functions
and do not need to
be measured out.
With shorter Pro-
grammes tabs some-
times do not dissolve
entirely and leave
residues of deter-
gent. This may im-
pair the cleaning ef-
fect.
Powder detergent is
recommended for
shorter Programmes.
The dosage can be
adjusted to the level
of soiling.

gent
Tip: Suitable detergents are available
online via our website or from Cus-
tomer Service → Page 53.
Separate detergents
Separate detergents are products
that do not contain components other
than detergent, e.g. powder deter-
gent or liquid detergent.
With powder and liquid detergent the
dosage can be individually adjusted
to the level of soiling of the table-
ware.
For better washing and drying results
and to avoid damage to the appli-
ance, please additionally use Special
salt → Page 24 and Rinse aid
→ Page 26.
Combined detergent
Besides conventional separate deter-
gents, a number of products are
available with additional functions.
Description
Liquid detergent
works faster and is
recommended for
shorter Programmes
without PreRinse.
Sometimes liquid de-
tergent may leak out
despite the detergent
dispenser being
closed. This is not a
fault and is non-crit-
ical if you remember
the following:
¡ Only choose a
programme
without PreRinse.
¡ Do not select
timer program-
ming for starting
the programme.
The dosage can be
adjusted to the level
of soiling.
