Detergent Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing detergent or detergent tabs. NOTICE: To avoid damage to dishwasher or dishware: ▯ 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. ▯ To best protect glassware, use a wash cycle with low temperatures or a specific glass-care cycle (depending on the model) and use a detergent that includes etch protection. This dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to 1 tablespoon (15 ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml). 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent will completely fill the detergent dispenser. 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. Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the amount of detergent recommended in the following table.
