Powder and Gels
The amount of detergent to use depends on:
How much soil remains on the items - Heavily soiled loads
require more detergent.
The hardness of the water - If you use too little in hard water,
dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.
Soft to Medium Water (0-6 grains per U.S. gallon)
[typical water softener water and some city water]
Medium to Hard Water (7-12 grains per U.S. gallon)
[well water and some city water]
Depending on your water hardness, fill the Main Wash section
of the dispenser as shown. Fill the Pre-Wash section to the
level shown, if needed.
NOTE: Fill amounts shown
are for standard powdered
detergent. Follow instructions
on the package when using
other dishwasher detergent.
Add Rinse Aid
Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid your dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. The heat dry option will
not perform as well without rinse aid.
Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can
dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by
allowing water to drain off of the dishes after the final
rinse.
Rinse aid helps to reduce excess moisture on the
dish racks and interior of your dishwasher.
Check the rinse aid indicator. Add rinse aid when indicator
drops to "Refill" level.
To add rinse aid, turn the
dispenser cap to "Open"
and lift off. Pour rinse aid
into the opening until the
indicator level is at "Full."
Replace the dispenser cap
and turn to "Lock." Make
sure cap is fully locked.
NOTE: For most water
conditions, the factory
setting of 2 will give good
results. If you have hard
water or notice rings or
spots, try a higher setting.
Turn the arrow adjuster
inside the dispenser by either
using your fingers or
inserting a flat-blade screwdriver into the center of the arrow and
turning.
