Safety Instructions

DETERGENT DISPENSER

The dispenser must be refilled before the start of each wash cycle according to the instructions provided in the" Wash Cycle Table". Our dishwashers use less detergent and rinse aid than conventional dishwashers. Generally, only one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items need more detergent. Always add the detergent just before starting dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and will not dissolve properly.

Amount of Detergent to Use

IF THE WATER ISN'T TOO HARD, YOU MAY ALSO PREVENT THE FORMATION OF DEPOSITS BY ADDING DETERGENT. The amount of detergent needed can vary due to differences in water hardness. To determine the water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or area water softening company. The harder the water, the more detergent you may need. Remember, you should adjust the amount of detergent you use little by little until you find the correct amount.

WARNING!

Removing Hard Water Spots From Dishes

To remove hard water spots, try the following:

Run dishes through a normal wash program.

Remove all metal dishware, such as cutlery, pans, etc., from the dishwasher.

Do not add detergent.

Pour two cups of vinegar into a bowl and set the bowl face up on the lower rack of the dishwasher.

Run the dishes through a normal wash program.

If this doesn't work, try the same process with 1 / 4 cup of citric acid crystals instead of vinegar.

Proper Use of Detergent

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you are ready to wash dishes.

Dishwasher detergent is corrosive! Take care to keep it out of the reach of children.

RINSE AID DISPENSER

Troubleshooting Tips

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open" (left) arrow and lift it out.

Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful not to overfill.

Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open" arrow and turning it to the "close" (right) arrow.

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to "sheet" off the dishes.

Our dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns completely black. The dispenser holds about 100 ml of liquid rinse aid.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could cause over sudsing. Wipe away any spills with a damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you close the dishwasher door.

If you have soft water, you may not need rinse aid as it may cause a white film to develop on your dishes.
