Refer to manufacturer's recommendations and also Dispenser box and Using the right amount of detergent sections. We do not recommend mixing different types of detergents. The amount of detergent to be used depends on the size of the load, the hardness of the water and how heavily soiled the washing is. If the water is soft, reduce the amount slightly. If the water contains lime scale (a descaler is recommended) or if the washing is heavily soiled or stained, increase the amount slightly. You can obtain information on the hardness level of water in your area by contacting your water company or other competent source. There are no restrictions on the use of powder detergents.
