Concentrated detergents Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost exclusively low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet or powder form.

When the 3in1 function is activated, – the addition of special salt and rinse aid from the respective dispenser is prevented. – If the salt and rinse aid dispensers are empty, this is not indicated. If you want to use 3in1 detergents, check whether these detergents are suitable for your water hardness.
