Interior Lights

Features

The interior LED lights provide better visibility for loading and unloading. Do not look directly into the LED lights. They turn on when the door is opened and turn off when the door is closed. The lights will turn off after 15 minutes if the door remains open. To turn the lights back on, close and open the door.

Do not attempt to replace the bulbs. If light bulb replacement is necessary, please contact the GE Answer Center for service by calling 1.800.626.2000.

Use a Rinse Agent

Rinse agents, such as Cascade® Complete Rinse Aid are designed for great drying action and to protect against spots and film build-up on your dishes, glasses, flatware, cookware, and plastic.

Filling the Dispenser

The rinse agent dispenser holds 3.5 oz. (104 ml) of rinse agent. Under normal conditions, this will last approximately one month.

1 Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.

2 Open the Rinse Agent dispenser door.

3 Slowly add rinse agent until the cup is full. You may need to pause several times to allow rinse aid to settle.
