How much detergent to use
For powdered detergent, refer to previous section ‘Wash programs and detergent quantities’ and
follow the quantities relevant to your location and water hardness level. Use the markings to
help you measure the correct quantities. For other types of detergent, follow the manufacturer’s
recommendations.
Notes on using tablets
If you are using tablets, follow manufacturer instructions on the packet. Some tablets may not be
suitable for all wash programs.
Using tablets could improve wash performance in hard water areas.
Make sure that tablets never get in direct contact with dishes or cutlery.
If you are using dishwasher tablets with a built-in rinse aid component, you may need to reduce
the rinse aid setting. See your ‘Quick start guide’ for instructions.
Important!
Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact
with the skin and eyes and keep children and infirm persons away from the dishwasher when it is open.
Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after completion of the wash program.
