Dishwasher Detergent

Use only a detergent designed for an automatic dishwasher. Never use oven cleaners or other caustic cleaners not designed for dishwashers. These will damage the stainless steel interior, filters and pump components of your dishwasher. Never use soap, laundry detergent or handwashing detergent in your dishwasher, as they are too mild and will cause severe over-sudsing. The foam product prevents the dishwasher from working properly and may cause damage to the dishwasher.

WARNING: Dishwasher detergent is corrosive. Keep out of reach of children. If swallowed, drink plenty of water or milk. DO NOT induce vomiting. Seek medical advice without delay. If dishwasher detergent gets into eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water.

Storing the Detergent

For best results, keep your detergent container tightly closed after each use, out of reach of children and stored in a cool, dry place. Storage under the sink is not advisable for powdered detergent, because this area is generally too warm and moist to keep detergent fresh.

Rinse Agent

A rinse agent causes water to flow off the dishes more quickly, preventing droplets that dry as spots and improving drying performance. Rinse agent come in solid and liquid forms. Your dishwasher’s rinse agent dispenser uses the liquid form. Rinse agent used with soft water can cause a cloudy film on dishes.

Adjusting the Dosage of Rinse Agent

The rinse agent dosage is set by the manufacturer and is dispensed automatically into the final rinse. If necessary, the rinse agent dosage can be adjusted by inserting a screwdriver inside the filler hole where the adjustment device is set on “2.” It is recommended that the dial be adjusted only one number at a time.

Note: For soft water conditions, it may be necessary to reduce the rinse agent dosage setting.

Note: Too much rinse agent is not advisable as this might result in the formation of foam, especially if the dishwasher is connected to a cold water supply.
