Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent Detergent To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products in your dishwasher. Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing detergent. 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 fill the detergent dispenser cup.

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. Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the amount of detergent recommended in Table 1. Rinse Agents To achieve proper drying, always use a liquid rinse agent, even if your detergent contains a rinse agent or drying additive. Filling the Detergent Dispenser Fill the dispenser cup as recommend in Table 1. Slide the detergent dispenser cover in the direction shown in Figure 11A and press it down firmly as shown in Figure 11B so that the cover snaps shut. Figure 11 A B 9
