Adding detergent
Use only powder detergents formu-
lated for residential dishwashers
(for example, Electrasol
®
). Do not
use gels or liquid detergents.
Press the latch on the detergent dis-
penser. The cover will spring open.
Fill the dispenser using approxi-
mately 20 - 25 ml (3/4 - 1 ounce) of a
quality powder detergent.
Close the cover. The cover will al-
ways be open at the end of a wash
programme.
Generally, filling the dispenser with
20 - 25 ml (3/4 - 1 ounce) of detergent
will be sufficient to ensure cleaning.
Do not exceed a maximum of 30 ml.
If you choose a programme utilizing the
pre-wash you will also need to put
detergent into the small compartment
labeled (I) in the center of the dispen-
ser.
Dishwasher detergents contain irri-
tant and corrosive ingredients. They
can cause burns in the mouth and
throat if swallowed, or inhibit brea-
thing. Keep children away from
detergent and from the dishwasher
when the door is open.
To avoid the danger of children com-
ing into contact with dishwasher
detergent, only fill the detergent dis-
penser immediately before starting
the programme.
Capacities:
Compartment I (pre-wash) takes a
maximum of 25 ml (1 oz). Compart-
ment II (main wash) has horizontal
marks to assist you in filling. The marks
indicate a level of approximately 20, 25
and 30 ml (3/4, 1 and 1 1/4 oz) respec-
tively.
