Proper Use of Detergent:
• The amount of detergent to use depends on the type of water in your living area
whether it is hard or soft and whether items are lightly or heavily soiled.
• Water softness or hardness is measured in grains content per gallon (gpg). You
can find out the gpg level by calling your local Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) in your county.
• If you find that the gpg level is higher in the water, then the water will be harder
in your living area. You will need more detergent to clean. If gpg level is lower,
then the water will be softer in your living area so you will need less
detergent to clean.
See the following table to understand the "water hardness type" and gpg level.
Water Hardness Type
Hard
Medium
Soft
Note: If gpg level is over 12, then water is very hard. You may need water
softener to improve the water quality and the performance of
your dishwashing.
Note: The quality of the detergent will make a big difference in the cleaning of
dishes. Detergent that is damp or too old will not be as effective to clean
because the active ingredients will be phased off. Detergent will not work
properly.
Note: Use only "Automatic Dishwasher Detergent" for your
dishwasher. Other types of detergents that are not for dishwasher use may
cause oversudsing and foaming. Do not use detergents that are dried, caked
or moist. These types of detergents will not dissolve properly and and will
clean effectively.
