Dishwasher
Use
Hot Water
For optimal cleaning
and drying results, hot water
is necessary.
The incoming
water temperature
should be 120 ° F [49 ° C) to properly activate
the
detergent
and melt greasy food soils.
To check the incoming water temperature,
turn on the
hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher
and let it run
into a glass in the sink. Place a candy thermometer
in
the glass and check the temperature
once it has
stopped rising.
Detergent
Use a detergent
designed
specifically
for use in an
automatic
dishwasher.
Be sure it is fresh. Store
granular detergent
in a cool, dry place (not under the
sink).
Recommended
Amount
Too little detergent
results in poor cleaning, hard water
filming/spotting
and poor drying. Too much detergent
can cause permanent
etching/cloudiness.
Suds can cause the dishwasher
to overflow. Measure
the detergent carefully
and use only detergents
designed for use in a dishwasher. Less detergent
is
needed in soft water. Try another brand of detergent
if
sudsing continues.
The amount of detergent
to use is determined
by the
hardness of the water and soil level of the load. Refer
to the following
chart for detergent
usage
recommendations.
Light Soil
2 tsp
6 tsp
Soft (0-4 gpg)
Normal Soil
4 tsp
6 tsp
Heavy Soil
4 tsp
7 tsp
Medium (5-9 gpg)
Light Soil
4 tsp
6 tsp
Normal Soil
4 tsp
6 tsp
Heavy Soil
5 tsp
7 tsp
Hard (10-12 gpg)
All Levels
5 tsp
8 tsp
*Your local water utility or state university extension service can tell
you the degree of water hardness in your area.
In extremely
hard water conditions
(13 grains per
gallon or more*),
it is difficult to achieve good
results with any dishwasher.
A mechanical
water
softener
may be necessary
to improve water
quality, detergent
effectiveness,
and protect the
dishwasher
parts from the damage
that hard
water can cause.
Add recommended
amount of detergent
to each cup
as shown and close the detergent
lid.
Do not use detergent with the Rinse Only (select
models) cycle.
Leave the detergent
lid open when
running Rinse Only (select models).
Rinse Aid
Regular
use of a rinse aid improves drying,
reduces spotting
and filming,
and reduces
moisture
left on the dishwasher
interior.
An automatic
rinse aid dispenser is located next to the
detergent
cup.
The window
next to the dispenser cap indicates when
the rinse aid reservoir needs to be refilled. When the
level of rinse aid is below the indicator
marks and the
window
is nearly clear, it is time to refill the dispenser.
Check the dispenser
monthly.
To add rinse aid to the
dispenser, turn the cap
counterclockwise
to open.
Remove the cap and pour
liquid rinse aid into the
opening. The amount of
rinse aid dispensed during
the cycle is adjustable by moving the lever inside the
reservoir area. For most water conditions use the
manufacturer recommended setting of "2". Adjust it up to
the "MAX" setting for hard water. Set the lever anywhere
between these amounts as needed to get the best results.
Replace the cap and turn it clockwise to close.
