If the crockery is only lightly soiled or if it has been rinsed with water before being placed in the

dishwasher, reduce the amount of detergent used accordingly.

The number and type of wash cycles and options may vary depending on the dishwasher model.

To make it easier to measure out the detergent, it is worth remembering that:

1 tablespoon = 15 gr. of powder = approximately 15 ml of liquid - 1 teaspoon = 5 gr. of powder = approximately 5 ml of liquid
