The detergent dispenser has one covered and one
uncovered cup. Detergent in the uncovered cup
falls into the dishwasher when the door is closed.
The covered cup opens automatically to release
detergent.
• Use only fresh automatic dishwashing
detergent. Other detergents will cause
oversudsing.
• When using automatic dishwashing detergent
tabs, place one tab in main wash cup and close.
• Add detergent just before starting cycle.
• Store detergent in a cool, dry location. Moist or
caked detergent will not dissolve properly.
The use of industrial grade detergent can
damage the heating coil and other parts of
the dishwasher leading to damage to the unit
and surrounding property. Use only
household grade automatic dishwasher
detergents.

*Note: For very hard water, detergent alone may not be enough. A water softener is recommended to
improve water quality and dishwashing performance. Try adding more detergent at the beginning of the main
wash portion of the cycle. As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open slowly
and add detergent to the bottom of the tub. Close the door to latch and the dishwasher will continue through
the cycle.

The amount of detergent to use depends on the
water hardness. Water hardness is measured in
grains per gallon. Using too little detergent can
result in poor cleaning and hard water filming or
spotting. Using too much detergent in soft water
can cause a permanent film called etching. Your
local water company, water softener company or
county extension agent can tell you the water
hardness in your area.
Note: If the cover is closed on the Main Wash
Cup, open by pressing the cover latch.
