Proper Use of Detergent

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Do not put powder detergent into the dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes.

The amount of detergent to use depends on whether your water is hard or soft. With hard water, you need extra detergent. With soft water, you need less detergent.

Protect your dishes and dishwasher by contacting your water department and asking how hard your water is. Twelve or more grains is extremely hard water. A water softener is recommended. Without it, lime can build up in the water valve, which could stick while open and cause flooding. Too much detergent with soft water can cause a permanent cloudiness of glassware, called etching.

For heavily soiled loads, use the HEAVY, NORMAL WASH Cycle, fill one or both of the interior cups, depending on the hardness of your water, and also fill the open cup on the dispenser lid.

Use the information in the table below as a guideline to determine the amount of automatic dishwasher detergent to place in the dispenser:

Number of Grains

Detergent Cups to Fill

Less than 4

15 cup

4 to 8

25 cup

8 to 12

15 and 25 cups

Greater than 12

15, 25 cups and the open cup

To open the wash cover, press the button and the cover will flip back. After you finish, please close the cover. See below:

NOTE: DO NOT USE HAND DISH DETERGENT

Using a detergent that is not specifically designed for dishwashers will cause the dishwasher to fill with suds. During operation, these suds will spill out of the dishwasher vents, covering the kitchen floor and making the floor wet.

Because so many detergent containers look alike, store the dishwasher detergent in a separate space from all other cleaners. Show anyone who may use the dishwasher the correct detergent and where it is stored.

While there will be no lasting damage to the dishwasher, your dishes will not get clean

using a dishwashing detergent that is not formulated to work with dishwashers.
