Detergent
Use only detergent specifically
designed for dishwashers. For best
results, use fresh powdered
dishwashing detergent or detergent
tabs.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage:
■
Do not use hand dishwashing
products in your dishwasher.
■
Do not use too much detergent if
your water is soft. Using too much
detergent with soft water may
cause etching in glassware and
fine china.
This dishwasher uses less water than
most, therefore, less detergent is
required. With soft water,
1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent
will clean most loads. The detergent
dispenser cup has lines that measure
detergent to 1 tablespoon (15 ml)
and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml).
3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent
will completely fill the detergent
dispenser.
Note:
If you do not know the
hardness of your water supply, use
15 ml of detergent. Increase the
amount if necessary to the least
amount required to get your
kitchenware clean.
Use the measuring lines in the
detergent dispenser cup as a guide
to measure the amount of detergent
recommended in the following table.
