Using the Dispensers

For best washing results, review the information below. It is important to use detergents and rinse agents properly.

Using the detergent dispenser

l Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents are too mild and much too sudsy.

l Add detergent just before starting cycle. l Store detergent tightly-closed in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.

Filling the detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one section with a cover and one without. Push cover down firmly until it latches. Detergent in the open section falls into the dishwasher when closing the door. The covered section opens automatically for the main wash.

NOTE: It is normal for cover to open partially when dispensing detergent.

How much detergent to use

l The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of detergent. If you use too little, dishes won’t be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.

l Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of phosphorus for softening water. If you have hard water and use low phosphorus content detergent (6.0% or less), you may need to use more detergent or use a detergent with a higher phosphorus content (8.7%).

l Find out your water’s hardness by asking your local water department, water soft- ener company, or county extension agent.
