SmartDispenseTM Detergent Dispenser Water Hardness Calibration
Safety
Prior to the first use, the dishwasher needs to be calibrated for water hardness. Please follow directions below to calibrate the dishwasher to the hardness of your tap water.
Determine the Hardness of Your Tap Water
In the bag containing these instructions, you should find a water hardness test strip package. Read the instructions on the package, remove the test strip and follow the instructions to determine the hardness level of your tap water. You will use this information to calibrate your dishwasher to dispense the optimal amount of detergent.
