Min = 15 g Max = 30 g D DE17 DE02 Compact detergents with enzymes In these compact powders the environmentally unfriendly components have been replaced by natural enzymes and other more biodegradable substances. The enzymes deploy their full dirt dissolving power at a temperature as low as 50°C. By choosing the "50°C" programmes you can therefore achieve the same cleaning results that would otherwise be achievable only with 65°C programmes and conventional detergents. These new compact powders are generally phosphate-free. As phosphates have water softening properties, we suggest you add salt to the salt container even if the hardness of your water is as low as 4°dH (8°TH). This will avoid lime deposits on crockery and the inner tub. 32 M M IN AX DET04en Hints and tips To save energy Place dishes in the machine immediately after every meal and wait until the dishwasher is full before washing.
