Adding dishwasher detergent
Important!
Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline and can be dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
Keep children and infirm persons away from the dishwasher when the door is open.
Check that the detergent receptacle is empty after the completion of the wash cycle - failure to do so could result in poisoning.
Never sprinkle or pour detergent directly onto any item in the dishwasher.
How much detergent to use
The lines on the inside of the detergent dispenser will help you measure the correct amount of detergent.
The detergent dispenser holds a total of 40 cm3 of detergent.
When the dishwasher is fully loaded and the dishes are very dirty, we recommend filling the detergent dispenser up to the 25 cm3 mark.
When the dishes are less dirty, it is generally sufficient to fill the dispenser up to the 15 cm3 mark.
If you are using tablet detergent, one tablet is enough.
Filling the detergent dispenser (Fig. 26)
1If not already open, open the detergent dispenser by pushing its latch to the right. The lid will snap open.
2Put the detergent into the detergent dispenser.
3 Close the lid back until it clicks.
Tips for using detergent
Keep the opened detergent packages in a cool and dry place where children cannot reach. Put the detergent into the detergent dispenser just before running a wash programme. Excessive usage of powder detergents can cause the detergent not to dissolve completely and can also scratch glassware.
