DETERGENT DISPENSER
The detergent dispenser on the Bosch dishwasher is
located on the inside of the door, see figure 1 as well as
figure 9 and 10. The detergent dispenser cover may be opened by pulling the release tab (figure 10) toward you.
Once the cover is open you will see two level marks:
"25" and "15". These refer to the volume when filled level in milliliters. 15 milliliters is equivalent to 3 teaspoons. If the detergent dispenser is completely filled it can hold
45 milliliters, or roughly 9 teaspoons.
USING THE DISPENSERS
For the best washing result it is important to use the correct amount of detergent and rinse agent.
DETERGENT USE
Use only fresh dishwashing detergent (,powder is recommended) manufaetored specifically for dishwasher use. Use of other types of detergents will result in excessive suds. Be sure to check the phosphate content of the detergent to be used. Phosphate helps prevent the minerals in hard water from forming a film or spots on dishes. Hard water requires your detergent to work harder. In hard water areas you will find that detergents with high phosphate levels will provide a better result. If the phosphate level is low, below 8.7%, you may have to use extra detergent in hard water areas.
Be sure to follow the dishwasher detergent manufacturer's instructions when using the detergents. Concentrated
Note: Do not use detergent when the RINSE & HOLD cycle has been selected.

_10.
The amount of detergent to be used depends on the cycle selected and the water hardness:
•For water of medium hardness and REGULAR WASH cycle it is recommended that the detergent dispenser be filled to the 25 milliliters, (5 tsp.) level.
•Wxth hard water, or with the POWER SCRUB cycle, it is recommended that the detergent dispenser be completely filled, roughly 9 teaspoons.
•With soft water the amount of detergent may be reduced.
If you have water of medium or higher hardness and the dishes do not come clean the cause, in the majority of cases, is the use of too little detergent rather than too much. If yon have very soft water, or chemically treated soft water special care should be taken to use the minimum amount of detergent. For these situations a high quality, low phosphate detergent is recommended. Too much detergent combined with soft water may cause etching of
glasswage.
