Using the rinse agent dispenser

Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a liquid rinse agent. A rinse agent greatly improves dish drying by helping water flow off during the last rinse. A rinse agent also keeps water from forming droplets and drying as spots or streaks.

A small amount of rinse agent automati- cally releases into the rinse water during the final rinse of each cycle. For best drying results, check dispenser periodically to see if it needs filling.

To check dispenser:

l Check center of Fill Indicator Cap. Clear means it needs filling.

OR

l Remove Fill Indicator Cap. An “E”is visible when dispenser is empty.

To fill dispenser:

The rinse agent dispenser holds 6 ounces (175 mL). Under normal conditions, this lasts about 3 months.

1.Open dishwasher door completely.

2.Remove Fill Indicator Cap.

3.Add rinse agent. Fill to smallest opening in lower part of dispenser only. Overfilling may cause rinse agent to leak out. This will not harm the dishwasher, but could cause oversudsing.

4.Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a damp cloth.

5.Replace Fill Indicator Cap. Keep it closed tightly.

NOTE: You do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty before refilling, but do not overfill it. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse agent. You do not need to use a solid or bar-type rinse agent.
