Using The Dishwasher; Add Detergent - Atag DW8215MT User Manual

Add detergent

You have two options for adding detergent – manual or automatic. To activate Auto dose, see the
chapter Settings. The manual detergent compartment can be used as a supplement even when
Auto dose is activated (for bleach, for example, or if the automatic dosing compartment is empty).
Follow the instructions on the detergent packaging. This dishwasher is fitted with a water softener,
so use detergent and rinse aid doses suitable for soft water.
Do not add detergent to the manual detergent compartment when using automatic detergent dosing!
Too much detergent can result in less effective dishwashing and also entails greater environmental
impact.
Manual detergent compartment
The detergent compartment must be dry when adding detergent.
If powder or liquid dishwasher detergent is used, add a small amount of the detergent to the
compartment for prewash detergent.

NOTE!
Use only dishwasher detergent! Washing up liquid must not be used as the foam that forms
prevents the dishwasher from operating effectively.
All-in-one detergent
There are many types of all-in-one detergents on the market. Read through the directions for these
products carefully.
Activate the TAB setting when using an all-in-one detergent that contains rinse aid.
Dishwasher tablets are not recommended for short programs (less than 75 minutes). Use powder
or liquid dishwasher detergent instead.
NOTE!
Optimal washing and drying results are achieved by using normal detergent together with
separately dispensed rinse aid and salt.
Contact the detergent manufacturer if you have questions about the detergent.
