Using the Right Detergent
The recess for
The detergent Use only detergent specifically made
for use in dishwashers, as other types
will cause over-sudding. If your
detergent is old and/or lumpy, throw it
away. Old detergent loses its washing
power. Lumpy detergent won’t
dissolve.
Please put the detergent in the recess
which is at the right of the inner door.
How much Detergent Should You Use
That depends if your water is ‘hard’ or ‘soft’.
HARD WATER REQUIRES MORE DETERGENT TO GET DISHES CLEAN.
SOFT WATER REQUIRES LESS DETERGENT TO GET DISHES CLEAN.
The recessed detergent area located on the inside door panel will hold approximately 20 grams of
detergent. Follow the detergent manufacturer’s guidelines.
How to use the water softener (for models with softener)
The hardness of the water varies from place to place.
If hard water is used in the dishwasher, deposits will
be formed on the dishes and utensils. This appliance
is equipped with a water softener which uses a salt
specifically designed to eliminate the minerals from
the water.
How to load the salt into the softener:
1. Unscrew the cap from the salt container
anticlockwise, which is located on the right side of the
inner box.
2. Load the salt into the container. Each time you may load 250g of salt, which can be used for 15
cycles.
3. Fill the water into the salt container until a small amount of water comes out(it is very important
when you use it for the first time).
4. Screw the cap back carefully.
Note:
1. Load the salt before the beginning of wash cycle so as to prevent corrosion.
2. Load the salt when the salt indicator light in the control panel is illuminated.
3. Only use dishwasher salt.
Using a Rinsing Agent
6
You can help prevent unsightly spots on
dishes and glassware, and reduce drying
time by using a rinse agent. A rinse agent is
specially formulated to rinse away food and
detergent residues that can be left behind on
your dishes. Used regularly, a rinse agent
will automatically provide you with cleaner
dishes every time you wash.
