Using the rinse agent dispenser

A rinse agent greatly improves dish drying and helps prevent spots or streaks. The rinse agent helps water flow off dishes and keeps water from forming droplets. A small

amount of rinse agent automatically releases into the final rinse water.

Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a liquid rinse agent. For best drying results, periodically check the dispenser as follows to see if it needs filling:

•Check center of rinse aid indicator cap I/_1. Clear means it needs filling.

OR

•Remove rinse aid indicator cap. An "E" is visible at the bottom of the dispenser when empty FII.

To fill dispenser:

1.Open dishwasher door completely.

2.Remove rinse aid indicator cap.

3.Add rinse agent r_. Fill only to smallest opening in lower part of dispenser. Overfilling may cause rinse agent to leak out. This will not harm the dishwasher, but could cause oversudsing.

4.Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a damp cloth.

5.Replace rinse aid indicator cap. Keep it closed tightly.

NOTES:

•Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse agent.

Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse agent.

•The rinse agent dispenser holds 6 ounces (175 mL). Under normal conditions, this lasts about 3 months.

•You do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty before refilling, but do not overfill it.

Water temperature tips

Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps dry glasses spot-free. For best dishwashing results, water must be at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water temperature is too low.

NOTE: Use the Water Heat option on your dishwasher if you keep your water heater at a low setting. For more

information, see "Dishwasher seems to run too long" in the "Troubleshooting Guide" section.

To check water temperature:

1.Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at least 1 minute.

2.Measure the water temperature with a candy or meat thermometer placed in the running stream of water I111.

3.If the water temperature at the faucet is below 120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the water heater's thermostat setting.
