Operation
Adding detergent
,Dishwasher detergents contain irritant and corrosive ingredients. Keep children away from detergent. Do not fill the detergent dispenser until you are ready to start the dishwasher.
Only use powder detergents or tablets formulated for residential dishwashers. The use of gel or liquid detergent is not recommended. Never fill the detergent dispenser to capacity.
Do not use more than the recommended amount of detergent. Continued use of too much detergent may cause machine damage.
^To open, press the latch on the detergent dispenser.
The horizontal marks in Compartment II indicate levels of approximately 1 1/4, 1 3/4 and 2 tablespoons (20, 25 and 30 ml) respectively.
^With the dishwasher door fully open fill compartment II with 2 tablespoons (30 ml) of powder detergent or one detergent tablet.
^Close the cover. The cover will always open at the end of a wash program except in "Rinse & Hold".
2 tablespoons (30 ml) of detergent is enough for most normally soiled loads. For heavily soiled loads, or if food has dried on the dishes, a program containing a prewash cycle should be selected. Add an extra tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent to compartment I.
Less detergent is needed in homes with very soft water and when washing lightly soiled dishes.
