FACTORS AFFECTING PERFORMANCE

Rinse Aid

Rinse aid greatly improves drying, reduces water spots and filming, and lubricates wash arm bearings for proper rotations. With it, water "sheets" off dishes rather than forming water droplets that cling and leave spots.

Water Pressure

The hot water line to the dishwasher must provide water pressure between 20 and 120 psi.

Low water pressure may occur when laundry or showers are in operation. If you experience poor wash perfomance you may need to wait until water use is

A dispenser, located next to the detergent cup, automatically releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last rinse. If spotting and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by rotating the dial to a higher number. The dial is located under the dispenser cap. The indicator will be dark when full and will show clear when it is time to refill. On models with a STATUS window, LO will appear at the end of the cycle indicating that it is time to refill.

To add liquid rinse aid, turn dispenser cap 1/4 turn counterclockwise and lift out. Pour in rinse aid until liquid touches the indicated fill level. Replace cap.

Do not overfill since this can cause oversudsing. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140 washes, depending on the setting.

Water Temperature

Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and drying results. Water entering the dishwasher should be about 120°F (49°C) to give satisfactory results.

To check water temperature entering dishwasher:

•Turn on hot water faucet nearest dishwasher for several minutes to clear cool water from pipes.

•Hold a candy or meat thermometer in the water stream to check the temperature.

•If temperature is below 120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the hot water heater thermostat setting.

IMPORTANT

Before starting a cycle, run hot water to clear cool water from pipe.

Less More

The HEAT DRY option in combination with rinse aid will enhance drying performance. The energy required to use the HEAT DRY option costs pennies per cycle. You may choose not to select the HEAT DRY option; however you will have items in your dish load that will not be completely dry at the end of the cycle.
