+ The Eco 50^ programme is energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.

"Programmes", Page 17

If you do not have much tableware to wash, use the additional Half Load function.

• The programme will adjust to a lower load and consumption will be reduced.

"Additional functions", Page 18

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.

Detergent

Find out which detergents are suitable for your appliance.

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 25 and "Rinse aid" Page 27 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 17 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 17. The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling.
Liquid detergent	Liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for shorter "Programmes" → Page 17 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 PreR-inse. ■ Do not select timer pro-gramming for starting the programme. The dosage can be adjust-ted to the level of soiling.

Tip: Suitable detergents are available online via our website or from "Customer Service" Page 55.

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 25 and "Rinse aid" Page 27.

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^ . With a water hardness above 26^ 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^ . 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 froth-ing and damage the appli- ance.
Detergent con-taining chlorine	Chlorine residue on table- ware 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^ , without adding special salt. For the best washing and drying results we recommend using special salt from a water hardness of 17^ .
• 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

1. To open the detergent dispenser, press the locking latch.

2. 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.

1. 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

Avoid damage to glass and tableware.

Cause	Recommendation
The following tableware is not dishwasher-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 dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
Glass and tableware was not dishwasher-safe.	Only put glasses and china in the dishwasher if it is marked as dishwasher-safe by the manufacturer.
The chemical composition of the detergent causes damage.	Use a detergent marked as gentle on tableware by the manufacturer.
Highly caustic alkaline or highly acidic cleaning agents, in particular commercial or industrial cleaning agents, are not suitable for dishwashers in conjunction 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.
The water temperat-ure of the programme is too high.	Select a programme with lower temperat-ures. After the programme has ended, take glass-ware and cutlery out of the appliance without delay.
