  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.
Do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. 
Using too much detergent with soft water may cause 
etching in glassware and fine china.
Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water 
supply, use 15 ml of detergent. Increase the amount if 
necessary to the least amount required to get your 
kitchenware clean.
Adding detergent
1.
If the detergent dispenser 9* is still closed, actuate 
locking bar 92 to open it.
2.
Pour detergent into the dry detergent dispenser 9* 
only. Do not overfill the detergent dispenser.
When using detergent tabs, lay them such that they 
do not come in contact with the cover, insert a 
detergent tab flat, not on its side.
Note:Do not place detergent tabs in the tab tray 1B. 
Place tabs or other detergent forms directly in the 
detergent dispenser 9*.
3.
Dosage: see manufacturer’s instructions on 
the packaging. Use graduated detergent dispenser.
Usually 1¼ to 1½ tablespoons (20 ml–25 ml) are 
adequate for normal soiling. If using tablets, one 
tablet is adequate.
4.
Close cover on the detergent dispenser. 
Cover “clicks” into position.
The detergent dispenser opens automatically at the 
optimum time depending on the wash cycle. The 
powder or liquid detergent is distributed in the 
appliance and is dissolved, the detergent tab falls 
into the detergent tab tray where it dissolves in 
doses.
Tip: If the utensils are only lightly soiled, slightly less 
than the indicated amount of detergent is usually 
adequate. 
Suitable detergents and care products can be 
purchased online via our website or via customer 
service (see back page).
