Saving energy
If you follow these instructions, your appliance will use less electricity and less water. Use the Eco Wash programme.
The Eco Wash programme is energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. "Programmes", Page 17
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 Detergent
Find Detergent 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 together with "Rinse aid" Page 21. Modern, powerful detergents mainly use a low-alkaline formulation with enzymes. Enzymes break down starch and remove protein. Oxygenbased bleaching agents are generally used to remove coloured stains, e.g. tea or ketchup. Note: Follow the manufacturer's instructions for each detergent.
Detergent Tabs
Powder detergent Liquid detergent
Description 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 is recommended for shorter "Programmes" Page 17. The dosage can be adjusted to the level of soiling. Liquid detergent works faster and is recommended for

Description 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 pro-
gramme 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 46.
Separate detergents Separate detergents are products that do not contain components other than detergent, e.g. powder 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, please also use "Rinse aid" Page 21.
Combined detergents Besides conventional separate detergents, a number of products are available with additional functions. These products not only contain detergent, but also rinse aid and salt replacement substances (3in1) and, depending on the combination (4in1,

"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 system to the separate or combined detergent in use. ¡ Follow the manufacturer's instructions for each detergent. ¡ 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 refill indicator lights up, washing programmes will still 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.
50 ml 25 ml 15 ml
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.
24
3. Close the lid of the detergent dispenser.
a The lid clicks into position. a 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 Tableware
Only Tableware 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.

Arrange tableware
Arrange the tableware correctly to optimise the dishwashing result and prevent damage to both the appliance and tableware. Tips ¡ Using the appliance allows you to
save energy and water compared to washing-up by hand. ¡ See our website for examples of how to load your appliance efficiently, free of charge. ¡ To save energy and water, load the machine with the number of place settings specified. ¡ For better washing and drying results, position items with curves or recesses at an angle so the water can run off.
2. Observe the following when arranging tableware: Put heavily soiled tableware in the bottom basket, e.g. pans. The more powerful the spray jet, the better the dishwashing result will be. To prevent damage to tableware, arrange it so it is stable and cannot tip over. To prevent injury, arrange cutlery with the points and sharp edges downwards. Position containers with the openings facing down so no water can collect in them. Do not block the spray arms make sure that they can turn freely. Do not place small parts in the tablet collecting tray and do not block it with tableware so as not to obstruct the lid of the detergent dispenser.
1. Remove large remnants of food from your tableware. To save resources, do not prerinse tableware under running water.
26
Removing tableware
WARNING Risk of injury! Hot tableware can cause burns to the skin. When hot, tableware is sensitive to shock, may crack and can result in injury. When the programme has ended,
do not empty the appliance until the tableware has cooled down for a while. 1. To prevent water dripping on the tableware, unload it starting at the bottom and working up. 2. Check the washing tank and accessories for soiling and clean if necessary. "Cleaning and servicing", Page 32
