Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent
Detergent
Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh
powdered dishwashing detergent.
NOTICE
T
o avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products.
This dishwasher uses less water so you need to use less detergent. With soft water, 1
tablespoon (15ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has
lines that measure detergent to 1 tablespoon (15ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25ml). 3
tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will completely fill the detergent dispenser cup.
NOTICE
T
o avoid dishware damage, do not use too much detergent if your water supply is
soft. Using too much detergent in soft water may cause etching in glassware.
NOTE
:
If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml of detergent.
Increase the amount of detergent, if necessary, to the least amount required to get
your dishware and kitchenware clean.
Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the
amount of detergent recommended in Table 1.
