Adding Detergent to the Dispenser

• Remove the label on the dispenser prior to
running the dishwasher for the first time.
• The amount of detergent needed depends on
the cycle, load size, and soil level of dishes.
• Put detergent into the detergent compartment
before starting any cycle, except the Rinse
cycle.

the cover.

soiled loads.

WARNING
• Dishwasher detergent and rinse aid
contain chemical components, like all other
household detergent. So, they must be kept
out of the reach of children.
CAUTION
• Use only detergent intended for dishwashers.
Incorrect detergent may cause the
dishwasher to fill with suds during operation.
Excess suds may reduce wash performance
and may cause the dishwasher to leak.
• To avoid damaging the dispenser, do not pull
up on the dispenser to close the dishwasher
door.
NOTE
• After completion of the wash program, check
whether the detergent was completely washed
out.
• Some dishwasher detergent tablets may
become stuck in the dispenser due to their
excessive size. Tablets can be placed onto the
base of the wash tub next to the filter before
starting the cycle.
• Too much detergent can leave a film on dishes
and in the dishwasher, resulting in poor wash
performance.
• If dishwasher detergent tablets are used without
liquid rinse aid, the dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. Select the
Extra Dry option for better drying performance.
• Using liquid rinse aid improves drying
performance by allowing water to drain off of
dishes after final rinse.
• Do not use detergent tablets for shorter wash
cycles. The tablet may not dissolve completely,
causing detergent residue on dishes and
inefficient cleaning.
• Using a wash booster helps remove spots,
residue, and the white film caused by hard
water. It does not help remove excess detergent
residue.
