Use of "3 in 1" combi detergents General advice These products are detergents with integrated and combined detergent/rinse-aid and salt functions. Before using these products you should first check that the water hardness in your supply is compatible with the use of these products as per the detergent manufacturers (on the product packaging). These products should be used strictly according to the detergent manufacturers instructions. If you encounter problems when using 3 in 1 products for the first time please contact the detergent manufacturers care line (the telephone number is given on the product packaging). Concentrated detergent Based on their chemical composition, dishwasher detergents can be split into two basic types: - conventional, alkaline detergents with caustic components. The use of 50°C washing programmes in conjunction with concentrated detergents reduces pollution and is good for your dishes; these wash programmes are specially matched to the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in the concentrated detergent. For this reason 50°C wash programmes in which concentrated detergents are used can achieve the same results that can otherwise only be achieved using 65°C programmes. Special advice When using combination 3 in 1 products select the lowest possible setting for water hardness. If you decide to switch back to the use of the standard detergent system we advise that you: q q Refill both the salt container and rinse aid dispenser. Switch the water hardness setting to the highest possible position and run from 1 to 3 normal washing programmes without a load. Readjust the water hardness setting again according to the hardness of the water in your area. Combi detergents If you are using dishwasher detergent that includes the rinse aid function, this must be placed in the detergent compartment. In this case the rinse aid dispenser must be empty, in order to avoid a double dosage. If there is still rinse aid in the rinse aid dispenser you must wait until it has finished before using these kind of detergents. q NOTE: When using dishwasher detergents with integrated and combined detergent/rinse-aid functions, the refilling of the rinse aid dispenser is no longer necessary. When the washing programme has finished, it is recommended that the dishwasher is unplugged and the water tap turned off. 4. To interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress Interrupt or cancel a washing programme in progress ONLY if it's absolutely necessary. Open the door carefully. Interrupt a washing programme in progress Open the dishwasher's door; the programme will stop. Close the door; the programme will start from the point at which it was interrupted. Cancel a washing programme in progress Open the dishwasher's door. Press the programme selection/cancel button for about 3 seconds, until the indicator light of the running programme turns off and the end of cycle indicator light flashes, indicating that the running programme has been cancelled and that the machine has returned to setting mode. If a new washing programme is to be selected, check that there is detergent in the detergent dispenser. NOTE: only during the drying phase, if the dishwasher's door will be opened and remains open for more then 30 seconds, the running programme will be automatically cancelled and the machine will return to setting mode. This will happen, always only during the drying phase, also when the machine is switched off by pressing the On/Off button and remains switched off for more then 30 seconds. 12 Maintenance and cleaning Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc. . . . ). Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth. We recommend the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every 3 months or run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.
