The detergent dispenser
Adding detergent
The table on page 17 lists the recommended amounts of detergent, generally one
heaped tablespoonful, or 25–30g. However, water hardness and soiling levels affect
the amount of detergent required, and there are various types of detergent tablet
on the market, so always follow the detergent manufacturer’s recommendations on
dosage.
• Before the start of each wash cycle fill an appropriate amount of detergent (or a
detergent tablet) into the detergent dispenser. If the lid is closed, press the latch
(Fig. 15) and the lid will spring open.
• For each wash cycle, fill dishwasher detergent (or a detergent tablet) into the
detergent dispenser compartment (Fig. 16: A). If you are washing more heavily
soiled dishes or using a program with a prewash cycle, also fill some detergent in
compartment (16: B), if using powder detergent.
• Unless you use a detergent tablet with rinse aid, make sure there is sufficient liquid
rinse aid in the rinse aid dispenser. Check the mechanical indicator (16: C), or the
electronic indicator on the control panel. (See pages 26–27 for more on rinse aid.)
• Close the lid of the detergent dispenser and press until you hear it lock in place.
