• The best way to eliminate spots on your dishes

try adding the Extra Rinse option as part of
the wash cycle to help minimize this condition.
To add an extra rinse to the cycle, select the
wash cycle and then press Rinse Options.

times and water usage.

Fill main wash compartment with measured
powder. If you cannot find citric acid powder,
pour approximately 1 ¾ -2 cups (400-500mL)

Rinse and Sanitary options. DO NOT USE
