This can be removed by replacing the pre-
wash detergent with two tablespoons of cit-
ric acid. If the water is very hard, use a rinse
aid that contains citric acid.
Different brands of dishwasher detergent
have different amounts of phosphorous for
softening water. If you have hard water and
use a detergent with less than 8.7% phos-
phorous content, you may need to use more
detergent or use a detergent with more than
8.7% phosphorous content.
NOTE:
We recommend that you do not add pre-
wash detergent for the Quick wash pro-
grams.
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the
dispenser cover. There is a risk that the
dishwasher detergent will not break down
properly to give the correct dosage if the
cover is tight and cannot be opened cor-
rectly.
3-in-1/ Multi-purpose detergent
Note!
If you use a dishwashing detergent with a
rinse aid additive, you may not need to fill
the rinse aid dispenser.
Read the directions for use for such products
carefully. If anything is unclear, contact the
detergent manufacturer.
