In daily use In daily use Loading cutlery and dishes 1 Sponges, cleaning cloths and any other objects that can absorb water must not be washed in the dishwasher. Plastic and Teflon coated dishes and pans tend to retain water droplets. These dishes and pans therefore do not dry as well as those made of china and stainless steel.
In daily use 15 Loading cutlery 1 Warning: Sharp knives and other items of cutlery with sharp edges must be laid in the cutlery rack or in the upper basket to avoid the risk of injury. To ensure that all items of cutlery in the cutlery basket can be reached by the water, you should: 1.Place the grid insert on the cutlery 2.Place forks and spoons in the cutlery basket basket's grid insert with their han dles pointing downwards.
In daily use To make it easier to load larger dishes, the two plate rests on the right in the lower basket can be folded down. Cups, Glasses, Coffee Service Load smaller, fragile crockery and long, sharp cutlery in the upper basket. • Arrange items of crockery on and under the folding cup racks so that they are offset from each other and water can reach all items. • The cup racks can be folded up out of the way for tall crockery items.
In daily use Adding detergent 1 3 Detergents remove the dirt from dishes and cutlery. The detergent must be added before the cycle starts. Only use detergent intended for domestic dishwashers.

The markings indicate the dosing levels for powder detergents: “20/30” cor responds to approx. 20/30 ml of detergent.
In daily use Concentrated detergents 2 Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively low alkaline concen trated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet or powder form. Using 50°C dishwashing cycles in conjunction with these concentrated deter gents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these dishwashing cycles are specially matched to the dirt dissolving properties of the enzymes in con centrated detergents.
In daily use 3 19 Before the start of the dishwashing cycle put 3in1 detergent in the detergent dispenser. As the rinse aid inflow is automatically switched off when the 3in1 function is activated, it may come about because of the different quality standards in the 3in1 detergent, that the dishes do not dry sufficiently. If this happens, proceed as follows (see section “Adding rinse aid”): • Fill up the dispenser (if this is empty) with rinse aid. • Set rinse aid dosage to “2” mechanically.
