Detergent
Only use detergents formulated
for domestic dishwashers.
Active ingredients
Modern detergents contain various ac-
tive ingredients, the most important of
which are:
– Complexing agents to prevent calcifi-
cation.
– Alkalis to aid the removal of dried-on
soiling.
– Enzymes to break down starch and
loosen protein.
– Oxygen-based bleaching agents to
remove colored stains (e.g., tea, cof-
fee, tomato sauce).
Most dishwasher detergents are mildly
alkaline and contain enzymes and oxy-
gen-based bleaching agents.
There are different types of detergent:
– Powder and liquid gel detergents.
These detergents allow you to adjust
the amount dispensed according to
the amount of load and level of soil-
ing.
– Tab detergents. These are suitable for
most levels of soiling.
You can also buy Tab products (see
“Options, DetergentAgent”, if applica-
ble).
In addition to detergent, these products
contain rinse aid and salt substitutes.
They are available as “3 in 1” or when
they also contain other components
such as glass and stainless steel pro-
tective additives and enhanced cleaning
power, as “5 in 1”, “7 in 1”, “All in 1”
etc.
Refer to the manufacturer's packaging
as to whether Tab products are suitable
for the water hardness level in your
area.
Please note that the cleaning and dry-
ing results of Tab detergents can vary
greatly.
For optimum cleaning and drying re-
sults, use Miele dishwasher detergent
and add Miele salt and Miele rinse aid
separately.
