Environmental protection and saving energy
Disposing of packaging
The packaging materials are environmentally compatible and can be recycled.
- Sort the individual components by type and dispose of them separately.
Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less electricity and less water.
Use the Eco 50 ° programme.
+ The Eco 50 ° programme is energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
→ "Programmes", Page 20
If you do not have much tableware to wash, use the additional Half Load function. ^1
+ The programme will adjust to a lower load and consumption will be reduced.
→ "Additional functions", Page 22
Change the sensor setting to the default.
+ Consumption is reduced.
→ "Sensors", Page 14
Zeolith drying automatically helps to save energy.
+ → "Zeolith drying ②, Page 13
Zeolith drying ②
The appliance features a Zeolith container. Zeolith drying lets you save energy.
Zeolite is a mineral that can store moisture and heat energy and then release them again.
During dishwashing heat energy is used to heat up the washing water and dry the mineral.
During the drying phase moisture from the interior of the dishwasher is stored in the mineral and heat energy is released. The heat energy is blown out into the interior of the dishwasher with dry air. This speeds up and improves drying.
Zeolith drying therefore saves a great deal of energy.
Tip: To avoid impairing Zeolith drying performance, do not position tableware parts directly in front of the intake opening or the blow opening of the Zeolith container.
Do not position heat-sensitive tableware parts directly in front of the blow opening of the Zeolith container.
→ "Appliance", Page 16
AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical measuring device (light barrier) which measures the turbidity of the rinsing water. You can save water with the AquaSensor.
Use of the AquaSensor depends on the programme. If the soiling level is high, the rinsing water is drained off and replaced with fresh water. If the soiling level is lower, the rinsing water is used in the next wash cycle, so reducing water consumption by 3-6 litres. In the automatic programmes
the temperature and run time are additionally adjusted to the level of soiling.
Sensors
The sensors adjust the programme sequence and strength in the automatic programmes depending on the level and type of soiling. The sensor has different sensitivity settings that can be changed in the basic settings.
→ "Changing basic settings", Page 42
Sensor setting Description
| Standard Optimum setting for a mixed load and heavily soiled tableware. Saves both energy and water. |
| Sensitive Adjusts the programme strength for effective re-moval of food remnants even with low soiling levels. Energy and water consumption are adjusted accordingly. |
| Very sensitive Adjusts the programme strength for difficult conditions of use, e.g. stubborn dried-on food remnants. Recommended setting when using organic or ecological detergents containing low levels of active agents. Energy and water consumption are adjusted accordingly. |

Detergent
Suitable detergents
Only use detergents that are suitable for dishwashers. Both separate and combined detergents are suitable. For optimum washing and drying results, use separate detergent, adding "Special salt" → Page 32 and "Rinse aid" → Page 33 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 instructions for each detergent.
| Detergent Description | |
| Tabs Tabs are suitable for all cleaning functions and do not need to be measured out. With shorter "Programmes" → Page 20 tabs sometimes do not dissolve entirely and leave residues of detergent. This may impair the cleaning effect. | |
| Powder detergent | Powder detergent is recommended for shorter "Programmes" → Page 20. The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling. |
Detergent Description
| Liquid detergent Liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for shorter "Programmes" → Page 20 without PreRinse. Sometimes liquid detergent may leak out despite the detergent dispenser being closed. This is not a fault and is non-critical if you remember the following:■ Only choose a programme without PreRinse.■ Do not select timer programming for starting the programme.The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling. |
Tip: Suitable detergents are available online via our website or from "Customer Service" → Page 61.
Separate detergents
Separate detergents are products that do not contain components other than detergent, e.g. powder detergent or liquid detergent.
With powder and liquid detergent the dosage can be individually adjusted to the level of soiling of the tableware.
For better washing and drying results and to avoid damage to the appliance, please additionally use "Special salt" → Page 32 and "Rinse aid" → Page 33.
Combined detergent
Besides conventional separate detergents, a number of products are available with additional functions. These products contain not only detergent but also rinse aid and salt replacement substances (3in1) and,
depending on the combination (4in1, 5in1, ...), additional components such as glass protection or stainless steel cleaner.
According to manufacturers, combined detergents generally only function up to a water hardness of 26 °E. With a water hardness above 26 °E you will need to add special salt and rinse aid. For the best washing and drying results we recommend using special salt and rinse aid from a water hardness of 17 °E. If you are using combined detergent, the washing programme is adjusted automatically to ensure the best possible washing and drying result.
Unsuitable detergents
Do not use detergent which could cause damage to the appliance or present a risk to health.
| Detergent Description | |
| Hand washing-up liquid | Hand washing-up liquid can cause increased frothing and damage the appliance. |
| Detergent containing chlorine | Chlorine residue on tableware may present a risk to health. |
Information on detergents
Follow the instructions on detergents in everyday use.
■ Detergents marked as "organic" or "ecological" (environmentally friendly) generally contain lower levels of active agents or completely dispense with certain substances. The cleaning effect may be restricted here.
■ Set the rinse aid and the water softening system to the separate detergent or combined detergent in use.
en Detergent
- According to manufacturers, combined detergents with salt replacement substances can only be used up to a certain water hardness, usually 26 °E, without adding special salt. For the best washing and drying results we recommend using special salt from a water hardness of 17 °E.
■ To prevent sticking, only touch detergents in a water-soluble pouch with dry hands and only ever place them in a dry detergent dispenser.
■ Even if the rinse aid and special salt refill indicators light up, washing programmes will run properly with combined detergents.
■ The function of rinse aid is limited with combined detergents. You will generally get better results using rinse aid.
■ Use tablets with a special drying performance.
Adding detergent
-
To open the detergent dispenser, press the locking latch.
-
Add the detergent to the dry detergent dispenser.

If you are using tablets, one is enough. Insert the tablets in a horizontal position.
If you are using powder or liquid detergent, follow the manufacturer's instructions and quantities for dosage in the detergent dispenser.
20 ml – 25 ml detergent is sufficient for normal soiling. If tableware is only lightly soiled, slightly less than the amount of detergent specified is usually sufficient.
- Close the lid of the detergent dispenser.

√ The lid clicks into position.
√ The detergent dispenser will open automatically at the optimum time during the programme. Powder or liquid detergent will spread around the washing tank and dissolve there. Tablets will fall into the tablet collecting tray and dissolve in the right dosage. In order to ensure that tablets can dissolve evenly, do not place any other objects in the tablet collecting tray.
Tip: If you use powder detergent and select a program with pre-rinse, you can also add a little detergent to the interior door of the appliance.
Tableware
Only clean tableware that is suitable for dishwashers.
Note: Decorated glassware and parts made of aluminium or silver may fade or discolour with dishwashing. Delicate types of glass may turn cloudy after a few washing cycles.
Damage to glass and tableware
Only put glasses and china in the dishwasher if it is marked as dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer. Avoid damage to glass and tableware.
| Cause Recommendation | |
| The following tableware is not dish-washer-safe:■ Items of cutlery and tableware made from wood■ Decorated glassware, antique and hand-crafted tableware■ Plastic parts not resistant to heat■ Tableware made from copper or tin■ Tableware soiled with ash, wax, lubricating grease or paint■ Very small items of tableware | Only put tableware in the dishwasher if it is marked as dish-washer-safe by the manufacturer. |
| The chemical composition of detergent causes damage. | Use a detergent marked by the manufacturer as gentle on tableware. |
| Highly caustic alkaline or highly acidic cleaning solutions, in particular commercial or industrial cleaners, are not safe to use in the dishwasher with aluminium. | If you are using highly caustic alkaline or highly acidic cleaning agents, in particular commercial or industrial cleaning agents, do not put aluminium parts in the dishwasher interior. |
Cause Recommendation
