Detergemnt Usage; Filling The Detergent - Summit DW242WADA Manuel D'utilisation

Detergent Usage
WARNING: Use a detergent specifically designed for use in domestic dishwashers.
•
You can find powder, gel, and tablet detergents on the market that have been designed for
household dishwashers.
•
Detergent should be put into the compartment prior to starting the machine. Add the proper
detergent for the selected program to ensure the best performance. Use less detergent if the
dishes are only lightly soiled. Using excess detergent can leave a film on dishes and in the
dishwasher, resulting in poor wash performance. Do not use detergent tablets for shorter wash
cycles. The tablet may not dissolve completely, causing detergent residue on dishes and
inefficient cleaning.
NOTE: The amount of detergent needed depends on the cycle, load size, and soil level of dishes.
Too much detergent in soft water may cause glass corrosion and does not dissolve in water.
WARNING: Do not use too much detergent if your water supply is soft.
WARNING: Keep your detergents in cool, dry places and out of reach of children. See the
detergent manufacturer's instructions for further information.
WARNING: Detergent tablets do not fully dissolve with short programmes.
To prevent detergent residues on the tableware, we recommend that you use the tablets with long
programmes.
WARNING: Do not use detergent in Rinse cycle (model depending). If you do not know the
hardness of your water supply, use 15 ml/3 tsp detergent. Increase the amount of detergent if you
see white water marks, especially on the surface of the glassware.
•
Should you need more information concerning the detergent you will use, contact detergent
manufacturers directly.
•
Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after the completion of each wash program.

Filling The Detergent

NOTE: The dispenser should be refilled just before the start of each program.
1. Push the latch to open the detergent container as shown in
the image to the right (fig 1).
2. Pour/put the detergent into the dispenser (fig 2).
3. The dtergent container has level lines inside. It is possible to
measure the right detergent amount using these lines. The
container can hold 40 cm³ of detergent. Open the
dishwasher detergent and pour into the larger compartment,
25 cm³ if your dishes are heavily soiled or 15 cm³ if they are
less soiled. You may have to add more detergent into your machine, depending on the degree of
soil and on the water hardness level in your area.
4. Close the flap of the dispenser.
NOTE: The flap is always open at the end of a program.
WARNING: Follow instructions on the package of the detergent when using liquid dishwasher
detergent, concentrated powder detergent, or tablet detergent.
