Your Part in Cleaning Dishes
Using the detergent dispenser
• Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other
detergents are too mild and much too sudsy.
• Add detergent just before starting cycle.
• Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh
automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning.
Filling the detergent dispenser
The detergent dispenser
and one without. Push the cover down firmly until it
latches. Detergent in the open section falls into the
dishwasher when closing the door. The covered section
opens automatically for the main wash. It is normal for the
cover to open partially when dispensing detergent.
NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with two washes. Use
only the covered section for cycles with one wash. See
the cycles chart for more details.

How much detergent to use

• The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of detergent. If you use too little,
dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.
• Find out your water's hardness by asking the water softener department in your local Sears store or your local water
department.
