Hi Raj,
Thank you for reaching out to us. We're glad to assist.
Yes, you may use either liquid detergent or pods in your dishwasher.
If you use detergent pods, make sure the pod is properly placed and the dispenser lid is closed. If the pod does not fit, consider using a different brand of pod or liquid dishwashing detergent. Detergent pods require hot water to dissolve completely, thus the water supply temperature should be at least 120°F. If the pod or pill manufacturer recommends a higher temperature, use it.
