Amount of DetergenttoUse
Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keepit out of reach of children.
Based ontheir chemicalcomposition, detergents can besplit in two basic types:
Detergent tabletsofdifferent brandsdissolve at different speeds. For this reasonsome
detergenttablets cannot dissolve and develop theirfullcleaningpower during short
programs. Therefore please use long programs when usingdetergent tablets, to
ensure the complete removal of detergent residuals.
The dispenser mustberefilled before the start of each washcycle following the instructions
provided in the wash cycle table . Your dishwasher uses less detergent and rinseaid than
Conventional dishwasher.Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is neededfor
anormal wash load. More heavily soileditems need more detergent.Alwaysaddthe
detergentjust before starting the dishwasher, otherwiseit couldgetdamp and will not
dissolve properly.
Concentrated Detergent

Normally new pulverised detergent is without phosphate.Thus the watersoftenerfunction of
phosphate is not given. In this case we recommend to fill salt in the salt containereven when
the hardness of water is only 6 dH. If detergents without phosphate are used in the case of hard water
often white spots appear on dishes and glasses. In this case please add more detergent to reach
better results. Detergents without chlorine do only bleach a little. Strongand coloured spots will not
be removed completely. Inthiscase pleasechoosea program with a higher temperature.

Detergents
Thereare 3 sorts of detergents
1.Withphosphate and withchlorine
2.With phosphate andwithout chlorine
