14 Detergents
Notes  on detergents
You  may use any brand of liquid or powder
detergent, as well as tablets, that have been specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers (do not use normal washing-up liquid!). Nowadays there are three types of dishwasher detergent available:1.  Those containing phosphates       and chlorine. 2.  Those containing phosphates       but no chlorine. 3.  Those containing neither phosphates       nor chlorine. When a phosphate-free detergent is used in conjunction with hard water , there is
a greater possibility that white marks will be left behind on the dishes and glasses, etc. These can be prevented by pouring an increased amount of detergent into the 
dispenser. Chlorine-free detergents have a reduced bleaching ef fect. This may mean that tea
stains are not completely removed orplastic items become discoloured. This can be resolved by: – using the “Auto Super W ash” 
   programme– increasing the amount of detergent – using a detergent that contains chloride Check the label on the packaging to determine whether a particular product is suitable for use with silverware. If you have any further questions, we recommend that you contact the customer advice departments of the respectivedetergent manufacturer . Detergent
 dispenser with
dosing aid The  graduated detergent dispenser helps
you add the correct amount of detergent. The lower and middle lines in the dispenser indicate15 ml and 25 ml ofdetergent respectively . The dispenser can
be filled with 40 ml of detergent when thedoor is opened horizontally .
Filling  with detergent
You  can add detergent either when the
appliance door is completely open or –for a more comfortable posture – when the door is half open.
If the detergent dispenser is still closed, open it by pressing the catch 
.
When the door is half open, press the button on the right side of the detergent dispenser . Swivel up the detergent
compartment and cover . The detergent
compartment can easily be locked intoposition by lifting it slightly .
    
						

							en15
Pour detergent into the dispenser .
Please follow the manufacturer’s
instructions on the detergent packet for correct dosage.
Note
The cleaning tabs from various manufacturers exhibit dif fering dissolving
properties, so washing power may notdevelop fully during short programmes and there may be undissolved cleaning agent residue. It is recommended to use washing powder for these programmes. The “Auto Super W ash” programme (on
some models) requires one tab only .
When using washing powder , you can
apply some of this cleaning agent to the inside of the appliance’ s door.
 Reduce costs!
If your dishes are only moderately dirty ,
you may be able to use less detergent than recommended.
If using washing tablets, please refer to the washing tablets box where to place the tablets in the appliance (e.g. in thecutlery basket, detergent dispenser).
Close the detergent dispenser . Slide
the dispenser cover completely over the detergent compartment (1) and then press down firmly (2) until the catch“clicks” into position.
Close the detergent dispenser when the door is completely open.
Close the detergent dispenser when the door is half open.
During the washing cycle the cover of the detergent dispenser is automatically opened and the detergent is washed out. The cover is therefore open whenthe programme ends.
