a.

Detergents

• Use the amount of detergent needed, depending on:
- the softness or hardness of the water
- the soil level of the dishes
• Soft water and lightly soiled dishes generally require 10 to 20 grams of
powdered detergent; hard water and heavily soiled dishes 20 to 30 grams.
• Note: Fill only compartment 15 if you use concentrated detergents.
• Try using different amounts to get best results from the water in your
area. This may vary from the quantities suggested above.
• For testing to Australian standard AS/NZS 2007.1, place 20 grams of
detergent in the dispenser compartment and 10 grams of detergent
in the depression of the door.

• A white film or scale may build up in your dishwasher pump housing
and filters over time, especially in hard water conditions. If this
happens, use a descaler every six months to reduce these deposits.
Contact your local service centre if you need more information.
b. Detergent and Rinse Aid Dispensers
• The detergent and rinse aid dispensers are in a combined unit on the
inside of the dishwasher door.
• They automatically dispense detergent and rinse aid at the correct time
in the dishwasher program.
