How to optimally arrange dishes in boxes

Properly arranged dishes are half the success of washing. Proper layout allows the rocker arms to spray water as efficiently as possible, as well as wash away detergent. Then there are no drips or drips left on the cutlery. Here are some tips from Hans' engineers:

Start loading from the bottom basket/box. After drying or the end of the cycle, they also begin to unload from the bottom.
Pots, pans, and other large items should be placed below.
Maintain some distance between dishes, including cutlery.
It is advisable to place plates and cups, as well as pots, upside down.
It is most effective and safe in those PMMs that have holders and special shelves for cups, glasses, and a separate tray for forks and knives.

Loading

There are several simple loading rules that apply to all dishwashers:

Start filling the device from the bottom basket. In the same way, you need to unload the device.
The largest items - pots and pans - are placed downwards.
There should be a small distance between dishes so that water can freely clean the surfaces.
Place all cookware upside down.

Loading the machine

You can highlight the basic rules for loading products into the device, the observance of which will allow you to use it most effectively.

Upper basket

In this basket you can place fragile glassware, porcelain, as well as tea pairs, cups and glasses. You can also place cutlery between them. The dishes must be laid out so that they are not touched by the spray nozzles when the device is operating.

Important! It should be remembered that items placed in the upper basket should be lightly soiled.

Lower basket

More soiled items and deep dishes can be placed in this basket. For example: bowls, pans, baking sheets. As in the case of the top one, it is necessary to arrange objects in such a way that they do not touch them when the device is operating. And so that the water drains, it is better to place the products upside down.

Cutlery tray

If the machine is equipped with a special compartment, then cutlery should be placed in it. It is important to fold them with their handles up, place the longest utensils in the middle, and also make sure that they do not cling to each other.

You can find out more about the loading rules in the instructions for the Hansa dishwasher of your particular model. Our article on how to use a dishwasher correctly will also help you.

Let's take a closer look at the design of Hansa machines using the example of several models.

Basic modes and choosing the right one

The basic set of programs in all dishwashers of this brand is the same. This:

Pre-washing, also known as soaking, is for heavily soiled or burnt dishes.
Standard program - suitable for medium soiling and almost all types of dishes.
Delicate - for glass, porcelain, crystal.
Eco mode is economical and environmentally friendly, not suitable for heavy pollution.
Night - the quietest mode, medium in duration. Typically the temperature is 50°C.

There are others, but the most popular ones are listed above.

Program selection

Different models of Hans dishwashers have their own characteristics. We list the main functions that are found in almost all devices:

Standard sink - for cleaning dishes from medium to heavy stains.
Eco-wash is used for all degrees of soiling, except heavy. It features reduced consumption of electrical energy, water and detergent.
The delicate wash is suitable for fragile items: glass, porcelain, crystal at a temperature of +45°C.
Quick wash is half as long as the standard cycle and takes place at +55°C.

Let's look at the most important points in more detail.

Proper care of your PMM

To avoid damage, use PMM only for dishes that can be washed in it. Do not load wooden or pewter items; not all dishwashers are suitable for washing plastic items. Don't forget to take care of the device. Wipe the doors, clean the filter. Of course, there are models with self-cleaning, but this also requires periodic supervision. The door seal should also be cleaned with a special product or a melamine sponge to prevent mold from forming or drying out.

Next, we’ll look at how to properly place dishes in the dishwasher.

Types of dishwashers

The Hansa company manufactures and supplies 3 types of dishwashers to the world market:

built- in This type of dishwasher is built into a compartment of a kitchen unit, completely merging with it and not standing out from the furniture facade. The advantages of built-in dishwashers include their compactness, low cost (compared to full-sized models), and low consumption of resources. The capacity of the box is from 10 to 14 sets of dishes;
free- standing Such equipment can be installed in any convenient place, with the possibility of connecting communications. One of the advantages of the dishwasher is the convenient location of the control panel on the front of the door. The maximum load of the dishwasher box is from 9 to 12 sets;
desktop _ The most compact version of dishwashing equipment, with small capacity and a modest range of functions and additional options. The machine is easy to install on a table or countertop. Capacity – up to 8 sets.

Bosch dishwasher symbols on the panel

The dishwasher is equipped with a control panel. Regardless of the type (electronic or mechanical), any panel is equipped with indicators and keys. These elements make it easier to select programs and allow you to understand the settings and modes. Bosch dishwasher indicators are no exception. It will be useful for you to know what the blinking of a particular light bulb means.

Advantages of devices

Many buyers choose Hansa dishwashers . This is due to the fact that the equipment of this brand is durable, does its job effectively and has good technical characteristics.

Advantages:

ergonomic screen with LED backlighting and indication of mode, time left and water temperature - all premium models are equipped with it;
internal lighting;
economical consumption of electricity and water;
machine operation with minimal noise level;
long service life;
warranty period from the manufacturer for each product;
remembering the last parameters set by the user for cleaning dishes.

Indicators on the dishwasher - why they light up and what to do about it

An unexpected shutdown or refusal to turn on the dishwasher at first causes slight horror - it’s broken, you’ll have to fix it.

However, you should not immediately be upset if the indicator on the dishwasher is on, everything can end in a slight fright.

Indicators have the same properties on all dishwashers:

The most common request is that the salt indicator is on in the dishwasher . Usually it signals that the salt has run out (zigzag arrow) and the compartment needs to be refilled. Sometimes the salt indicator may light up even if it is present - in this case, you need to stir the contents of the compartment and close the lid well.
The rinse aid indicator (snowflake) lights up - the container is empty, you need to pour rinse aid into the compartment.

If you use tablets or 3in1 liquid detergent, you need to press the button with the same name on the body of the machine - the indicators will stop lighting, and the machine will be able to work in a more correct cycle.

Next, let's look at why the indicator lights (buttons) light up in Bosch, Hansa, Ariston and Electrolux dishwashers.

Bosch dishwasher lights are on

Warning signals in a Bosch dishwasher - the indicators glow or blink: faucet or brush, signaling a problem/failure that has occurred in the dishwasher:

1. The faucet indicator in the Bosch dishwasher is on. The water supply to the dishwasher stops and a humming noise may be heard.

Check whether the water supply to the apartment has been turned off or whether the water supply pressure has decreased - a minimum of 10 liters per minute is required.
Forgot to open the water supply tap to the machine.
The water supply hose is bent or kinked.
The filter in the supply hose is clogged - you need to turn off the water and clean it.
Clogged filters inside the dishwasher.
A clogged drain hose or a dish is blocking the sump pump cover.

2. On your Bosch dishwasher, the water supply/faucet light is flashing. Try turning off the dishwasher using the On/Off button and turning it on again after a few minutes.

If the indication starts flashing again, then the problem is at a technical level and a technician is required.

3. The brush indicator flashes.

When this indicator lights up, the machine is washing, but sometimes it flashes:

If, after turning on one washing mode, you want to switch the wash to another, the dishwasher gets confused, the indicator flashes, simply turning it on/off does not solve the problem. You must press the “Start” button and hold it for 3 seconds - the program will be forcibly reset, and you can select another washing cycle.
During the washing process, the water supply turned off and the indicator with a “brush” began to blink - the “Aquastop” mode probably worked. Try tilting the machine a little; if water flows out, there is a leak and the problem needs to be fixed. If calling a technician is difficult, turn off the water supply to the machine, disconnect the power from the network and drain all the water from the pan; then turn on the device and try washing again; if the shutdown occurs again and the indicator lights up again, repairs cannot be avoided.

How to choose and what to pay attention to?

The selected dishwasher should not only be stylish and easy to use, but also multifunctional. This will allow the buyer to select the optimal washing mode for all types of dishes and varying degrees of soiling.

Hans dishwashers have basic programs such as:

express wash – for daily use with lightly soiled dishes. Temperature – 60 degrees;
delicate cleaning of fragile items . Ideal for washing fine porcelain and glassware. Temperature – 45 degrees. At the end of the cycle, there are no streaks left on the dishes;
two automatic programs . Temperature ranges from 40 to 75 and from 45 to 65 degrees. Suitable for all types of dishes, including heavy and old stains;
ECO mode . Washing dishes with minimal use of resources and detergent at a temperature of 50 degrees;
intensive - the longest time mode at a temperature of 60-70 degrees. Suitable for removing soot and old fat;
half load . The mode allows you to wash any number of dishes without reaching the maximum load volume.

Another important parameter is the low noise level during operation of the equipment.

Most models have good performance up to 45 dB, which will allow you to turn on the machine at any time of the day, including at night, without worrying about family members waking up from the noise.

Hans machines have a high energy efficiency class, corresponding to the designations A, A+, A++, A+++ . This will allow all users to save resources up to 40%.

The maximum load of the dishwasher box is from 9 to 15 full sets of dishes.

What you need to know before running your dishwasher for the first time

The dishwasher (hereinafter also referred to as PMM, dishwasher) cannot be turned on for the first time after immediately filling it with dishes. First you should do a test run, and here's why:

At the final stage of production, PMM is not cleaned of waste that accompanies each production process. In addition, there are traces left on it from the hands of production workers and store visitors inspecting the goods. Therefore, the first start of the dishwasher in test mode is necessary to clean the unit from grease, dirt, debris and fatty deposits.
A test run will ensure that is working properly . Unfortunately, this cannot be done in the store. A test run will show whether the PMM was damaged during transportation to the owner’s kitchen.
Another important reason for testing the PMM is to check that the dishwasher connected No one is immune from errors when installing communications. Drawing water, heating it and draining it during testing will show whether the machine is connected correctly.
to understand how to control the operation of the dishwasher during the first idle start, in order to use the PMM correctly in the future.

The cleanliness and shine of a newly purchased Siemens dishwasher are deceptive - in fact, there is dirt and small debris inside it

To test and clean the PMM, you need to stock up on three components:

detergent;
dish rinse aid;
salt specifically intended for PMM.

Household chemicals intended for use in dishwashers: salt, powder, tablets, gel

The special salt for dishwashers contains ingredients designed to soften tap water, prevent the appearance of scale on the electric heater (TEH), and also provide better dishwashing. There is a special reservoir for salt - an ion exchanger, into which it must be poured.

The detergent cleans surfaces of grease deposits. The rinse aid removes any remaining dirt. Household chemicals from the European brand Bon, intended for use in dishwashers, have proven themselves well.

Dishwasher starter detergent

In addition to the above household chemicals intended for the daily operation of PMMs, tablets, powders and other compositions are now produced that are intended for use during a test run of an automatic dishwasher. They contain all the necessary components.

Why can't you use regular table salt?

Many owners are tempted to use regular table salt because it is much cheaper than the kind designed to run dishwashers. Although their composition is 95% similar, there are still several significant differences:

The degree of purification of table salt is much lower, although it is intended for cooking. In addition to the main element - sodium chloride - it contains such chemical elements as iron, manganese, potassium, iodine and others. They do not have the best effect on the operation of the PMM.
Granules of specialized salt are much larger than table salt crystals. Therefore, detergent intended for dishwashers dissolves more slowly.

If you want your dishwasher to serve for a long time and trouble-free, use a special salt composition designed for its operation.

Dishwasher salt should be stored together with other household chemicals out of the reach of children. The naked eye can see that it is easy to confuse it with cookery. Be carefull

The video informs you about what household chemicals are best used in PMM:

How to turn it on

Hansa PMMs are quite easy to use; in order to turn on the dishwasher, you need to:

Plug in the power cord and check if the water supply valve is open.
Add dishes, cleaning agent and close the door.
Select a program, mode and press the appropriate button.
Click "Start".

First start

The first start of the washing mode must be carried out according to the following recommendations:

Load the dishes into the working plane of the device and, if possible, move them towards the rear wall.
Add the tablet, powder and salt, pour in the rinse aid.
After downloading and selecting the “Start” button, the machine will start working after 10 minutes.

If you urgently need to stop the machine and change the cleaning mode, you can do this before the device begins to flush detergent from the specialized compartments. To do this, you can open the door, and then the Hansa appliance will automatically stop operation. After this, switch the washing mode, close the door again, wait 10 minutes - the machine will start working.

How to drain the water

If the filter is clogged and water does not flow out of the machine completely, you must drain the water from the Hansa dishwasher yourself:

Select the manual water drainage program on the control panel.
Monitor the process.
Disconnect the equipment.
Close the water supply valve.
Place rags under the device to absorb any remaining water from the work area.
Unscrew the filter cover at the bottom of the housing and the salt compartment cover.
Tilt the machine on one side to allow any remaining water to drain.
Wash the inside of the device dry, leave the door open for 10-15 minutes so that it dries well inside to prevent an unpleasant, musty smell.

If the PMM is used only in the summer in an unheated room, then leaving it with water for the winter is dangerous. When water freezes inside, it ruptures the plastic pipes, requiring expensive repairs.
