Adding Detergent - Bosch SHX68R55UC/67 Use & Care Manual

Adding Detergent and Rinse Aid
Detergent
Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing
detergent or detergent tabs.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products in your dishwasher.
ITo avoid dishwasher damage, do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. Using too much detergent with
Isoft water may cause etching in glassware.
This dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon
(15ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to 1
tablespoon (15ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25ml). 3 tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will completely fill the deter-
gent dispenser.
Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml 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 recom-
mended in Table 1. Figure 7

Rinse Aid
To achieve proper drying, always use a liquid rinse aid, even if your detergent contains a rinse
aid or drying additive.
Note: The dishwasher indicates low rinse aid by turning on the Rinse Aid indicator symbol "_?_
on the top display.
If this light is on, you need to refill the rinse aid dispenser by following the directions below.
Adding Rinse Aid
Open the rinse aid reservoir and add liquid rinse aid to the dispenser by pouring over the
arrow.
Turn the arrow to adjust the amount of rinse aid dispensed (see Figure 10). Wipe up any
excess rinse aid that may puddle when the dispenser reservoir is full.
The indicator light will go out a few moments after the dishwasher door is shut.
