Why is Detergent Important?
Detergent is necessary to clean your dishes. It’s important to only use detergent specifically made
for dishwashers with your dishwasher. Store the detergent in a dry place, and only put it in the
dispenser when you’re ready to wash dishes.
What Type of Detergent Can I Use?
You can use three types of detergents:
1. Those with phosphate and chlorine
2. Those with phosphate and without chlorine
3. Those without phosphate or chlorine
Note that phosphate softens water, so if you’re using detergent that does not contain this
compound, we recommend filling the salt container with salt so your dishes do not dry with white
stains. If this does occur, wash again with more detergent. Detergents with chlorine can remove
some stains when used with a high temperature program.
Can I Use Concentrated Detergent?
Yes. Concentrated detergents, or those that contain natural enzymes and are low in alkalinity, are
gentler on your dishes and the environment. You can achieve the same cleaning results with these
types of detergents on a “normal” wash cycle as you can with conventional detergents on a “heavy”
wash cycle. This is because the water facilitates the dirt-dissolving properties of the enzymes in
concentrated detergents.
Can I Use Detergent Tablets?
Yes, but different tablet brands dissolve at different speeds. For this reason, select long wash
programs to ensure that the tablets have fully dissolved and reached their full cleaning potential.

HOW TO USE DETERGENT
NOTE:
Increase the level if there are water droplets or lime spots on your dishes after a wash cycle. Reduce it if there
are white spots on your dishes, or a blue film on glassware and cutlery.
