Q: QuestionWhat detergent is recommended for my Fisher Paykel dishwasher (DD24DDFTX9 N)? I am using Cascade Ultimate and it doesn't dissolve all of the cleanser.

Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer The manual expressly forbids the use of liquid or gel-based detergents. The manual says powder-based detergents and rinse aids are preferred. Gel, liquid, or powder-based pods are also compatible with the unit, but should be placed somewhere in the drum without interfering with the rotating spray head. I’ve tried gel-based detergents because I’m a renegade with no regard for the rules, and the gel was not fully dissolved either. TL;DR: Use powder or a pod.

Q: QuestionDoes Fisher Paykal make a totally stainless interior in their 2 drawer dishwashers?

Asked 6 years ago by Sandy.

• A:Answer They do not. They have a molded seamless plastic tub to prevent water leaking through seams as well as they found the plastic tub created a lower decibel wash because so many consumers are looking for a quiet dishwasher.

Q: QuestionAfter 15 years we are replacing our Fisher & Paykel, Dish Drawers dishwasher. Our current dishwasher only allows the use of a powdered detergent for washing the dishes. Powder is hard to find. Can I use detergent packs with the new models?

Asked 4 years ago by Wrigley.

• A:Answer Yes. Our Fisher & Paykel dishwasher has served us for 20 years. Unable to purchase boxed powdered detergent—only pods— at Costco any longer, I called customer service and was told to just drop one of the pods in the silverware basket. Works fine.

Q: QuestionWhat is total length of time for a complete dish washing cycle?

Asked 5 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer There are 3 different settings. Heavy wash. Regular wash and fast wash. There is a button to put it on Eco to save wAter/ money. The longest wash on mine was 115 minutes. The next was 87 minutes and fast was 54. I’m getting ready to buy my fifth one because we have moved a lot but I love this dishwasher so much I won’t use any other. So quiet. And really cleans dishes. Won’t break your back either.
