Rinse Aid Dispenser

Rinse aids prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the final rinse by releasing a small amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type.

Filling the dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser holds 3.4 oz (100 mL) of rinse aid. Under normal conditions, this will last for about 3 months. You do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it full, but be careful not to overfill it.

1.Make sure the dishwasher lid is fully open. Locate the rinse aid fill on the right-hand side of the dishwasher back wall.

Dishwasher Performance Tips

Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing 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. Water that is too hot can make some soils harder to remove and cause certain detergent ingredients not to function.

■If you have the hot water tank accessory installed, you can significantly reduce the cycle times by using the high setting.

■If you do not have a hot water tank accessory installed, and if your water heater is located far from the dishwasher, it may be necessary to follow these steps:

1.Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at least 1 minute.

2.Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring cup.

3.Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is running into the cup.

■To save water, energy and time, do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

■Choose the cycle that describes the most difficult soil on your dishload.

■Do not worry about mixed loads. Any item that is dishwasher safe can be washed using any cycle.

■During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.

■Use a rinse aid to improve drying.

■Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse portion of the cycle for better performance.

■Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after meals until the dishwasher is full.

■If your home is equipped with a water softener, you may want to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener, as this may contribute to poor wash performance.
