NOTE:
• Fill the special salt dispenser when the special salt indicator ( ) on
the control panel lights up. Depending on the rate of salt dissolution,
the special salt indicator may still be on even after lling the dispens-
er.
• If there is no special salt indicator on the control panel (on some
models), you can estimate when to top up the dispenser based on
the number of wash cycles performed.
• If some special salt spills, run the soaking programme or a quick
wash programme.
• Use only the special salt intended for dishwashers!
The test strip
The dishwashing eectiveness is linked to water hardness. Therefore,
the appliance is equipped with a system to reduce the hardness of the
water supply. The dishwashing eectiveness is improved when the sys-
tem is set correctly. To check water hardness contact the municipal water
company or determined the water hardness using test strip (if available).

Multi-component (multitab) detergents (eg. 2-in-1, 3-in-1,
etc.)
There are three types of detergents:
1. Containing phosphates and chlorine,
2. Containing phosphates and no chlorine,
3. Containing no phosphates and no chlorine.
The latest tablets are generally phosphate-free. Since phosphates have
water softening properties, we recommend adding salt to the container
even if the water hardness is only 6°dH. If you use phosphate-free de-
tergent where water is hard, white residue may be visible on the dishes.
You can prevent this by increasing the amount of detergent. Chlorine-free
detergents have less bleaching eect. Stains may not be entirely re-
moved. Select the programme with a higher wash temperature.
Generally, using multi-component detergents suitable results are ob-
tained only under certain conditions. Such detergents contain rinse aid
and/or special salt in a specic amount. It is recommended to use special
salt when using multi-component tablets.
What you should pay attention to when using these tablets.
• Always check the type of detergent used and whether it is a mul-
ti-component product.
• Make sure that the detergent used is appropriate for tap water hard-
ness.
• Follow the instructions on the product packaging.
• If the detergent is in the form of tablets, never place it the cutlery
basket. Always place the tablet in the detergent dispenser compart-
ment.
• The use of these detergents yields good results only in certain appli-
cations. Using this type of detergent you should contact the manu-
facturer for information about proper use.
