KitchenAid KAD-9 Using the Dishwasher, Detergent USE, Filling The Powdered Detergent Dispenser

USING THE DISHWASHER

DETERGENT USE

The detergent and rinse aid dispenser is lo- cated on the front inside wall of the drawer. The detergent dispenser has two sections: 1) Pre Wash and, 2) Main Wash.

The Pre Wash and Main Wash sections each have inside fill line markings. The Pre Wash section has one marking, which represents 1 tsp (5 mL). When it is full, the Pre Wash section holds 2 tsp (10 mL). The Main Wash section has two markings. The lowest mark indicates 2 tsp (10 mL), and the middle mark 4 tsp (20 mL). When the Main Wash section is full, it contains 6 tsp (30 mL).

NOTE: The detergent dispenser is designed for use with powdered detergent. Liquid and tablet detergents are not suitable to be used in the dispenser. (Dispenser posts are a reminder not to use detergent tablets.)

IMPORTANT:

•Use powdered, automatic dishwashing de- tergent only. Other detergents can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing perfor- mance.

•Add detergent just before starting a cycle.

•Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Using fresh, automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.

NOTE: Do not use detergent with a Rinse program.
