Detergent usage

Use a detergent specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers.

You can find powder , gel , and tablet detergents in the market that have been designed for household dishwashers.

Detergent should be put into the compartment prior to starting the machine. Keep your detergents in cool, dry places out of reach of your children.

Do not fill detergent into the detergent compartment more than required; otherwise it may cause scratches on your glasses as well as lead to a poorly dissolved detergent.

Should you need more information concerning the detergent you will use, contact detergent manufacturers directly.

Filling the detergent compartment

Push the latch to open the detergent container as shown in

the image. The Detergent pod has level lines inside. It is possible

to measure the right detergent amount using these lines. The Detergent pod can take a maximum of 40 cm3 of detergent.

Open the dishwasher detergent and pour into the larger

compartment

 

25 cm3 if your dishes are heavily soiled or 15

cm3 if they

are less

soiled

 

If

 

your

dishes

 

have

 

been

kept dirty for a very

long time, if there are dried food wastes on them, and if

you have overly loaded the dishwasher, pour

 

5cm3

detergent into the pre-wash compartment and start your machine.

You may have to add more detergent into your machine, depending on the degree of soil and on the water hardness level in your area.
