DISHWASHER DISPENSER & DETERGENTS

Filling the Detergent Dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one covered and one uncovered cup. Detergent in the uncovered cup falls into the dishwasher when the door is closed. The covered cup opens automatically to release detergent.

Use only fresh automatic dishwashing detergent. Other detergents may cause oversudsing.

If detergent packs or tabs do not fully dissolve at the end of the cycle, place pack/tab directly on the bottom of the dishwasher and close the dispenser cover.

When using automatic dishwashing detergent tabs, or pacs place one tab in main wash cup and close.

Add detergent just before starting cycle.

Store detergent in a cool, dry location. Moist or caked detergent may not dissolve properly.

CAUTION

The use of industrial grade detergent can damage the heating coil and other parts of the dishwasher leading to damage to the unit and surrounding property. Use only household grade automatic dishwasher detergents.

How much Detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness. Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon. Using too little detergent can result in poor cleaning and hard water filming or spotting. Usin too much detergent in soft water can cause etching to some glassware which is

surface damage that appears like a film but cannot be wiped off. Your local water company, water softener company or county extension agent can tell you the water hardness in your area.
