How do I remove the refill from the gadget?

How do I know if I have to change the refill?

Why are there only 12 chambers in the refill?

We conducted extensive consumer research & consumers felt that 12 was the best number.

Do I need to clean/ wash the gadget before replacing the refill?

No, the gadget is cleaned itself by the dishwashing cycle.

Once the refill pack is open, can I take out the other refill(s) to store it under my sink?

Like for every other detergent, we recommend to leave them inside their original and closed packaging up to the moment of use.

If I forget to change the refill and put the dishwasher on, what will happen?

Hot water would rinse your dishes, but without any detergent. You will not get the amazing shine and clean of QuantuMatic and, for example, you might notice food residues on plates and/or spots on glasses.

Why is QuantuMatic revolutionary?

QuantuMatic is unique - it is the world's first automatic detergent dispenser and is protected by almost 30 patents pending. There are no products like it within dishwashing category.

How does it work?

QuantuMatic is powered by a heat activated wax motor within the device, so an external power source is NOT required.
In other words, the QuantuMatic dispenser uses the "natural power" of hot water to move its internal mechanism so that the next dose of detergent is ready to be used for next wash.

Where do I put it?

It should be placed in straight position on the top dishwasher rack. Just clip it to the the rack ensuring it sits firmly there.

What is the benefit of QuantuMatic over the detergent I normally use?

QuantuMatic is the ultimate in performance and convenience, delivering the power of Quantum, but automatically.

Does it work with existing tablets?

QuantuMatic cannot be refilled with existing tabs but with a specially designed refill.

Does the water need to flow from the top?

Yes – as long as dishes are not placed on top of the device, water will be able to get in to it and the device will work.

Do I need batteries to operate it?

No, it uses the 'natural power' to activate.

Does it release the right amount of product based on water hardness or temperature?

No, it releases a fixed dose of detergent.

Does it deliver the same results at all temperatures and cycle lengths?

Yes, QuantuMatic has been extensively tested in a variety of dishwasher models and wash programmes.
The only exception are short cycles like the "Rinse only" program, when the dispenser does not have enough time to activate and to release the detergent.

Can I use QuantuMatic and still be green?

Yes, like the other Finish detergents, QuantuMatic works at its best also in Eco / Auto / 50-55C wash programmes.

Do I need to add Salt and Rinse aid?

No, QuantuMatic contains built in salt and rinse aid functions. If you live in an extremely hard water region, you can further improve your dishwasher's performance by adding Finish Salt and Finish RINSE AID.

Does the formula contain glass protector ingredients?

No, traditional glass protection ingredients are not compatible with the QuantuMatic detergent. We are actively looking for "glass protection" technologies suited for QuantuMatic. However you can use Finish Protector while using QuantuMatic in your machine.

If I'm using a Dishwasher Cleaner, do I take QuantuMatic out of the dishwasher?

Yes, as otherwise the alkali in QuantuMatic will reduce the cleaning effect of the acidic Finish dishwasher cleaner.

How many grams of powder are there vs tabs / Quantum?

Each refill of 12 = 177g of detergent, i.e. 14.75 g per wash.
This is less than most other detergents in the market.

The dispenser is meant to last for a long time and it has been checked in accelerated tests, simulating up to 4 years of heavy use.
It can be safely disposed together with non hazardous municipal solid waste, i.e. in the bin.

Can the aesthetics of the gadget be improved?

If you have any suggestions for a better design, please let us know your comments by using the 'Tell us How to Improve QuantuMatic Section'.

Why does it take a lot of space in my dishwasher?

work in progress

How do I make sure no more than 1 dose is being used at the same time?

QuantuMatic has been extensively tested to make sure that only 1 dose of detergent is released during the wash cycle.

If I see a lot of product residues, what shall I do?

Check the following, if you have residues on the dishes:
−Is the dispenser straight? Is the water inlet hole in the „lowest“ position of the lid?
−Is the dispenser covered by dishes?
−Which wash cycle are you using? (All wash cycles can be used, except short cycles, like "Rinse Only")
−Is it installed in the top rack? If yes, moving it to the bottom rack should help.

If I need to do a second wash immediately, what shall I do?

The Quantumatic dispenser does not use batteries and uses the „natural“ power of „heating“ and „cooling“ to move the refill inside to the next chamber. To work effectively it must cool after usage. Therefore, please take the following steps:
−Open the door of the dishwasher completely and unload it
−Pull out the rack where the dispenser is installed
−Wait until the dispenser is ready for a new wash (image). There is no set cooling time as it depends on environment and dishwasher programme used. Programmes using a higher temperature will require more cooling time.
