8. TYPES OF DETERGENT
Detergent tablets
Detergent tablets of different manufacturers
dissolve at different speeds, for this reason,
during short programmes, some detergent
tablets may be not fully effective, because
they are not completely dissolved. If these
products are used, is recommended to
choose longer programmes to guarantee
the complete use of the detergent.
To get satisfactory washing results,
the tablets MUST be placed in the
wash
section
container and NOT directly in the tub.
Concentrated detergents
The concentrated detergents, with reduced
alkalinity and with natural enzymes, in
conjunction with 50°C wash programmes,
have a smaller impact on the environment
and they protect the dishes and the
dishwasher. The 50°C wash programmes
purposely
exploit
properties
of
the
therefore, with the use of the concentrated
detergents, to achieve the same results of
the 65°C programmes but at a lower
temperature.
Combined detergents
The detergents that also contain the rinse
aid must be placed in the wash section of
the detergent container. The rinse aid
container must be empty (if it is not empty,
set the rinse aid regulator to lowest position
before using combined detergents).
"TABS" combined detergents
If you are planning to use "TABS" ("3 in
1 "/ "4 in 1"/ "5 in 1", etc.) combined
detergents i.e. those with built in salt and/or
rinse agent, we would advise the following:
of
the
detergent
the
dirt-dissolving
enzymes,
allowing
l
read carefully and follow the manufacturer's
instructions given on the packaging;
l
the effectiveness of detergents containing
the built in water softener/salt depends on
the hardness of your water supply. Check
that the hardness of your water supply is
within the effective range given on the
detergent packaging.
If when using this type of product, you
don't get satisfactory washing results,
please contact the detergent manufacturer.
In certain circumstances use of combined
detergents can cause:
l
limescale deposits on dishes or in the
dishwasher;
l
a reduction in washing and drying
performance.
Any problems which arise as a direct
result of the use of these products are not
covered by our warranty.
Please note that using the "TABS"
combined detergents, the rinse aid and
salt indicator lights (only used on
selected models) are superfluous, so
you must ignore the lights.
If washing and/or drying problems occur,
we recommend you return to use traditional
separate products (salt, detergent and rinse
agent). This will ensure that the water
softener
in
the
correctly.
In this case, we recommends that you:
l
refill both the salt and rinse aid container;
l
run one normal washing cycle without a
load.
Please note that on return to the use of
conventional salt, a number of cycles will be
required before the system becomes fully
efficient again.
