USING YOUR DISHWASHER

NOTE: It is normal for cover to open partially

when dispensing detergent. The cover will

open fully when the door is opened.

How much detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on

the hardness of your water. If too little is

used, dishes won’t be clean. However, if too

much is used in soft water, glassware will

begin to etch.

• HARD-Fill one or both sections to the top

of the third step (3 tablespoons) if water

hardness is 8 or more grains per gallon, or

136 or more parts per million.

• MEDIUM-Fill one or both sections to the

top of the second step (2 tablespoons) if

water hardness is 5 to 7 grains per gallon,

or 85 to 119 parts per million.

• SOFT-Fill one or both sections to the top

of the first step (1 tablespoon) if water

hardness is 0 to 4 grains per gallon, or 0 to

68 parts per million.

Rnd out your water's hardness by asking

your local water department, water softener

company or county extension agent.

Using the rinse agent dispenser

Rinse agent dispenser

Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a

liquid rinse agent. A rinse agent greatly

improves the drying of dishes by helping

water flow off them during the last rinse. A

rinse agent also keeps water from forming

droplets and drying as spots.

Release of a small amount of rinse agent

into the rinse water is automatic in the final

rinse of each cycle. For best drying results,

check the dispenser periodically to see if it

needs refilling.

To check dispenser

Remove dispenser cap. If dispenser is

empty, an “E" will be clearly visible inside the

dispenser.

“E”shows

when empty
