Zanussi ZDT16003FA - Manual (Page 25)

• The rinse aid helps, during the last rinsing
phase, to dry the dishes without streaks and
stains.
• Combi detergent tablets contain detergent,
rinse aid and other added agents. Be sure
that these tablets are applicable to the water
hardness in your area. Refer to the instruc-
tions on the packaging of the products.
If you want to use these tablets out of the ap-
plicable water hardness, you must also use
dishwasher salt. First activate the multitab
option, then adjust the water softener to the
water hardness in your area and use dish-
washer salt.
• Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with
short programmes. To prevent detergent res-
idues on the tableware, we recommend that
you use the tablets with long programmes.
Do not use more than the correct quantity
of detergent. Refer to the instructions on
the detergent packaging.
Loading the baskets
Refer to the supplied leaflet with examples
of the load of the baskets.
• Only use the appliance to wash items that
are dishwasher-safe.
• Do not put in the appliance items made of
wood, horn, aluminium, pewter and copper.
• Do not put in the appliance items that can
absorb water (sponges, household cloths).
• Remove remaining food from the items.
• To remove easily remaining burned food,
soak pots and pans in water before you put
them in the appliance.
• Put hollow items (cups, glasses and pans)
with the opening down.
• Make sure that cutlery and dishes do not
bond together. Mix spoons with other cutlery.
