Filling the door dispenser
 Risk to health due to dust production.
When dispensing powder cleaning agents
and tablets, dust from fine cleaning
agents can be stirred up. If this dust gets
into the mouth, throat or eyes, it can
cause irritation or burns.
When dispensing powder cleaning agents
and tablets, avoid the production of dust
as much as possible.
Add powder cleaning agent or a tablet to
the powder cleaning agent dispenser before
every wash programme (except Super Short,
Cold, Reactivation and Drain). Follow the tips
on the Super Short programme.
 Press the yellow button on the dispenser
container with the symbol.
The flap will spring open. The flap is always
open at the end of a programme run.
The level markers in the powder container
with the door in the horizontal position in-
dicate the fill level in millilitres (ml). The max.
capacity is approx. 60ml of cleaning agent.
The amount in ml equates to approx. the
amount normally recommended in grams (g)
for proprietary powder cleaning agents.
Powder density (grain size) can affect this
amount.
Dispensing example:
Approx. 8,5litres of water are taken into
the machine for the main wash. With a
cleaning agent concentration of approx.
3g/l, you will need approx. 25g of clean-
ing agent. Please observe manufacturer’s
recommendations, which may vary!
 Add the cleaning agent to the dispenser.
 Close the flap.
 Make sure that all of the cleaning
agent has dissolved at the end of the pro-
gramme.
Repeat the programme if residual clean-
ing agent is present.
Check whether any load items have pre-
vented the flushing out of the dispenser
container and rearrange the load items if
necessary.
