If your detergent gets old or

lumpy, throw it away. Itwon’t wash well. Old detergent loses its power. Lumpy detergent often won’t dissolve.

You’ll find two detergent dispensers on the inside door of your dishwasher. Two, because some cycles use two washes.

What you can leave on dishes.

And what you shouldn’t.

If this is your first dishwasher, or if you’re replacing a much older model, you may wonder how much pre-preparation your dishes need. Actually very little. Pre-rinsing of normal food soils is not necessary. With common sense and a little practice you’ll soon know what foods to remove. Here are some guidelines:

1. Scrape off bones, seeds, skins,

toothpicks and other hard solids. It

is also best to remove hard shelled

vegetables,

meat trimmings, leafy

vegetables

and crusts. Remove

excessive quantities of oil or

grease.

 

2. Remove large quantities of any

food. Your dishwasher has a built-

in soft food disposer that pulver-

izes soft food bits and flushes

them away. It can handle sma//

amounts of soft foods, but cannot

handle large amounts of food as

3.Try to remove food scraps and place dishes in dishwasher before soil has a chance to dry and become hard. Dishes with dried-on soil are more difficult to wash and may not come clean in the NORMAL WASH cycle. Remember to use your RINSE & HOLD cycle for small “holding” loads.

Note: The foods mentioned above are for examples only. Other foods not mentioned may also need to be removed from your dishes. You may also want to consider removing foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice and other foods that can cause discoloration of stainless steel if allowed to remain on dishes for a long period of time.

When using the POTSCRUBBER

cycle less preparation is required before loading. The Potscrubber cycle can wash heavily-soiled
