Miele G 1872 Operating Instructions

							Detergent type
For optimum results you can
programme your dishwasher via the
Detergent type menu for the type of
detergent you are using.
The options available are: normal
dishwasher detergent, 2 in 1 tabs or
Combi tabs.
The programme sequence and duration
will be adjusted for the type of
detergent selected.
The appliance is set at the factory for
using normal dishwasher detergent.
^Select the detergent type you want
and confirm with
OK.
Normal detergent:
When using Normal detergent, you
must add salt and rinse aid (see Filling
the salt reservoir, and Adding rinse aid).
The rinse aid refill reminder is active
with this setting.
2 in 1 tabs:
Select the 2 in 1 function if you are
using 2 in 1 tabs (detergent containing
rinse aid). The programme sequence
will be adjusted, and rinse aid will not
be dispensed in the programme. The
Rinse aid low message is also
deactivated.
When using 2 in 1 tabs, you must still
keep the salt reservoir replenished. See
Filling the salt reservoir.Combi tabs:
Select the Combi tabs function if you
are using Combi tabs (detergent
containing rinse aid and salt
substitutes, as well as other
components where applicable) e.g.
3 in 1, 4 in 1 tabs. The programme
sequence will be adjusted, and rinse
aid will not be dispensed in the
programme. The Replenish rinse aid
message is also deactivated.
When using Combi tabs, you must still
keep the salt reservoir replenished. See
Filling the salt reservoir. Salt
consumption in the water softener is
reduced to between1/3and1/4of the
normal amount.
Do not select the Combi tabs function
if:
– using 2 in 1 tabs (detergent with
rinse aid)
– your water hardness level is above
3.8 mmol/l or 21 °d.
Follow the detergent manufacturers
instructions.
The cleaning and drying
performance of these types of
detergent can vary enormously.

hardness level measured by the water
softener sensor via the Water hardness
option.
