Adding detergent
8
Only use detergents formulated for use in
dishwashers.
Detergent tablets or composite tablets
containing detergent, softener and rinse
aid may also be used.
The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are
on the inside of the door.
The detergent compartment is on the left.
Open the detergent compartment by pushing
the locking lever to the right
(A).
Add
detergent before each wash and close the
lid.
The lines on the inside of the detergent
container assist in measuring the correct
amount of detergent. The container can hold
40cm³ of detergent.(
1)
For a full load and relatively dirty dishes , fill
the container to the 25cm³ mark.
For slightly soiled dishes and a partial load,
fill the compartment to the 15cm³ mark.
If detergent tablets are used, these should be
placed in the detergent dispenser.
If food particles are stuck and the dishes
have not been washed for a long time,
supplement the detergent by adding an
additional
amount
to
the
open
oval
depression to the right of the detergent
compartment

During the wash programme, the detergent
will be dispensed automatically and the lid
will be left open. The best washing results
are obtained using detergent, rinse aid and
water softening salts.
Multi purpose tablet detergents
are
available and can give satisfactory results.
These are classified as follows:
2 in 1:
Contain detergent and rinse aid or
water softening salt.
3 in 1:
Contain detergent, rinse aid, water
softening salt.
4 in 1:
Contain detergent, rinse aid, water
softening salt and a glass protector.
5 in 1:
Contain detergent, rinse aid, water
softening salt, a glass protector and a
stainless steel protector.
Do not use tablet detergents in short
programmes since their total solubility is
dependent on temperature and time.
