It should be used between two different wash cycles and
ONLY after soiled crockery has been loaded.

O

3.
until the wash cycle is started. More items can be introduced
at any time until full load.
The typical faint odour that can be smelt inside the dishwasher -
the same as you sometimes get with storms - is due to the ozone
produced by lightning discharges. This is normal. The device
produces just a small quantity, which soon decays.
No replacement needed.
