To adjust the height of the upper rack using the One-Hand Adjuster
(on some models):
1. Pull the upper rack fully out of the dishwasher. Make sure the
lower rack is pushed fully into the dishwasher.
2. Press the handle downward until it stops. You will hear 2 clicking
sounds. This assures that both sides of the rack are locked.
3. Release the handle.
4. To adjust the height of the upper rack again, repeat Steps 1 - 3.
NOTE: If one side of the rack is tilted down, lift the rack on the side
tilted down. You will hear a clicking sound when the rack returns to
level.
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwasher detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry spot-
free. For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water
temperature is too low.
Additional efficiency tips
To save water, energy and time, only scrape dishes. Do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.
Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utility providers recommend avoiding heavy usage of
energy at certain times of day.
During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.
Use a rinse aid to improve drying.
NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse
cycle. Do not use detergent.
Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add powder,
liquid or tablet detergent just before starting a cycle.
Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool,
dry place.

Premeasured Detergents
Many detergents now come in premeasured forms (gel packs,
tablets, or powder packs). These forms are suitable for all
hardness and soil levels. Always place premeasured detergents
in main compartment and close lid.
Using dishwasher detergent tablets and packs have been
proven better than powder, liquid or gel detergents at reducing
filming on dishes. Using tablets and packs over time will start to
reduce or eliminate white film. Also, by using a rinse aid you can
minimize repeat buildup of white film.
