Use only detergent specifically made for use
in dishwashers. Cascade
®
and Electrasol
®
Automatic Dishwashing Detergents have been
approved for use in all Monogram Dishwashers.
Keep your detergent fresh
and dry. Don’t put
powdered detergent into the
dispenser until
you’re ready to wash dishes.
The amount of detergent to use depends on
whether your water is hard or soft. With hard
water, you need extra detergent. With soft
water, you need less detergent.
Protect your dishes and dishwasher by
contacting your water department and asking
how hard your water is. Twelve or more grains
is extremely hard water. A water softener is
recommended. Without it, lime can build up
in the water valve, which could stick while open
and cause flooding. Too much detergent with
soft water can cause a permanent cloudiness
of glassware, called etching.
Use the information in the table below as a
guideline to determine the amount of automatic
dishwasher detergent to place in the dispenser.
Do not use hand dish detergent.
NOTE: Using a detergent that is not
specifically designed for dishwashers will
cause the dishwasher to fill with suds. During
operation, these suds will spill out of the
dishwasher vents, covering the kitchen
floor and making the floor wet.
Because so many detergent containers look
alike, store the dishwasher detergent in a
separate space from all other cleaners. Show
anyone who may use the dishwasher the correct
detergent and where it is stored.
While there will be no lasting damage to the
dishwasher, your dishes will not get clean using
a dishwashing detergent that is not formulated
to work with dishwashers.
