Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent

Detergent

Use only detergent specifcally designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing detergent.

ATTENTION

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products.

This dishwasher uses less water so you need to use less detergent. With soft water, 1 tablespoon (15ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to 1 tablespoon (15ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25ml). 3 tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will completely fll the detergent dispenser cup.

ATTENTION

To avoid dishware damage, do not use too much detergent if your water supply is soft. Using too much detergent in soft water may cause etching in glassware.

NOTE: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml of detergent. Increase the amount of detergent, if necessary, to the least amount required to get your dishware and kitchenware clean.
