Setting the amount of rinse aid re- quired Only change the amount dispensed, if smears, milky spots (reduce the amount) or dried on water spots (increase the amount) can be seen on glasses and dishes. (See section “If dish- washing results are not satisfactory”.) The dosage can be set from 1-6.
In daily use Loading cutlery and dishes Sponges, cleaning cloths and any other ob- jects 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.
Loading cutlery Warning: Sharp knives and other items of cut- lery with sharp edges must be laid in the cut- lery rack or in the upper basket because of the risk of injury. To ensure that all items of cutlery in the cutlery bas- ket can be reached by the water, you should: 1.

Concentrated detergents Today’s detergents for dishwashers are almost ex- clusively low-alkaline concentrated detergents with natural enzymes in tablet or powder form. Using 50°C dishwashing cycles in conjunction with these concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes, as these dishwashing cycles are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in concentrated detergents.
