Detergent
Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing
detergent or detergent tabs
.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products in your dishwasher.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. Using too much detergent
with soft water may cause etching in glassware.
The dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With
soft water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dis-
penser cup has lines that measure detergent (
Figure 2
) to 1 tablespoon (15 ml) and
1.75 tablespoons (25 ml). 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent will completely fill the
detergent dispenser.
Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml (1 tbsp) of
detergent. Increase the amount if necessary to the least amount required to get your
kitchenware clean.
Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the
amount of detergent recommended in
Table 2
.
