How much detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water. If too little is used, dishes won’t be clean. However, if too much is used in soft water, glassware will begin to etch.

ment, water softener company or county extension agent.

1 or both sections to

final rinse of each cycle. Check the dispenser periodically to see if it needs refilling.
