Good dishwashing starts with HOT water.

To get dishes clean and dry, you need hot water. To help you get water of the proper temperature, your dishwasher automatically heats the water in the wash cycle. For good washing and drying, the entering water must be at least 120°F. To prevent dish damage, inlet water should not exceed 150°F.

How to test water temperature:

Higher water temperature is needed to dissolve grease and activate powder detergents.

Check you water temperature with a candy or meat thermometer. Turn on the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher. Put the thermometer in a glass and let the water run continuously into the glass until the temperature stops rising. If the water temperature is below 120°F.,

adiust your water heater.

. .

Helpful hints: If outside temperatures are unusually low, or if your water travels a long distance from water heater to dishwasher, you may need to set your water heater’s thermostat up. If you have not used hot water for some time, the water in the ui~es will be cold. Turn on the hot w;ter faucet at the sink and allow it to run until the water is hot. Then start the dishwasher. If you’ve recently done laundry or run hot water for showers, give your water heater time to recover before operating the dishwasher.

To improve washability if the water is less than 120°F. and you cannot adjust your water heater: Select a longer cycle and fill both detergent cups at least half-full with detergent.

How to use a rinse agent...

A rinse agent makes water flow off dishes quicker than usual. This lessens water spotting and makes drying faster, too.

For best dishwashing performance, use of a rinse agent such as JET- DRY brand is recommended.

Rinse agents come in either liquid or solid form. Your dishwasher uses the liquid form.

How to fill the rinse agent dispenser. Unscrew the cap. Add the liquid rinse agent until it just reaches the bottom of the lip inside the dispenser opening. Replace the cap. The dispenser automatically releases the rinse agent into the final rinse water.

If you accidentally spill: Wipe up the rinse agent with a damp cloth. Don’t leave the spill in the dishwasher. It can keep your

detergent from working.

.

If yo;”can’t find any rinse agent, write:

BENCKISER CONSUMER PRODUCTS, INC.

(“JET DRY”)

411 W. Putnam Ave.

Greenwich, CT 06830

How to choose and use the right detergent.

First, use only powder or liquid detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Other types will cause oversudsing.

Second, check the phosphate content. Phosphate helps prevent hard-water materials from forming spots or film on your dishes. If your water is hard (7 grains or more), your detergent has to work harder. Detergents with a higher phosphate level will probably work better. If the phosphate content is low (8.7% or less), you’ll have to use extra detergent with hard water,

Your water department can tell you how hard your water is. So can your county extension agent or your area’s water softener company. Just call and ask them how many “grains” of hardness is in your water.

How much detergent should you use? That depends. 1s your water “hard” or “soft’”? With hard water, you need extra detergent to get dishes clean. With soft water, you need less detergent.

Too much detergent with soft water not only wastes money, it can be harmful. It can cause a permanent cloudiness of glassware, called “etching.” An outside layer of glass is etched away! But why take a chance when it’s easy to find out the hardness of your water.
