Important!

Only use powdered detergent recommended for domestic automatic dishwashers in the detergent dispenser.

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 DishDrawer when it is open. Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after completion of the wash programme.

Do not place dishwasher tablets in the detergent dispenser.

Detergent and dishwasher tablets should not be in direct contact with dishes or cutlery. Liquid detergents are not suitable to be used in the DishDrawer®.

Hand washing liquids, soap, laundry detergents or disinfectants will damage the DishDrawer®.
