Add detergent
You have two options for adding detergent – manual or automatic. To activate Auto dose, see the
chapter Settings. The manual detergent compartment can be used as a supplement even when
Auto dose is activated (for bleach, for example, or if the automatic detergent dispenser compartment
is empty).
Follow the instructions on the detergent packaging. This dishwasher is fitted with a water softener,
so use detergent and rinse aid doses suitable for soft water.
Do not add detergent to the manual detergent compartment when using the automatic detergent
dispenser! Too much detergent can result in less effective dishwashing and also entails greater
environmental impact.

Prewash detergent
Main wash detergent
The detergent compartment must be dry when adding detergent. There is one compartment for the
prewash and one for the main wash. If powder or liquid dishwasher detergent is used, you can add
a small amount of the detergent to the prewash compartment. Contact the detergent manufacturer
if you have questions about the detergent.
NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Washing up liquid must not be used as the foam that forms
prevents the dishwasher from operating effectively.
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programs (less than 75 minutes). Use powder
or liquid dishwasher detergent instead.
All-in-one detergent
There are many types of all-in-one detergents on the market. Read through the directions for these
products carefully.
Activate the TAB setting and deactivate the Rinse aid setting, when using an all-in-one detergent
that contains rinse aid.
NOTE!
Optimal washing and drying results are achieved by using normal detergent together with
separately dispensed rinse aid and salt.
