The amo
unt of detergent to use depends on:
How much soil remains on the items - Heavily soiled lo
ads
re
quire more detergent.
The hardness of the water - If you use too little in hard water,
dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.
Soft to Medium Water (0-6 grains per U.S. gallon)
[typical water softener water and some city water]
Medium to Hard Water (7-12 grains per U.S. gallon)
[well water and some city water]

ng on your water hardness, fill the Main Wash section
of the dispenser as shown. Fill the Pre-Wash section to the
level shown, if needed.
NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for
standard powdered detergent.
Follow instructions on the
package when using other
dishwasher detergent.
Add
Rinse Aid
■
Your di
shwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid your dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. The heat dry option will
not perform as well without rinse aid.
■
Ri
nse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can dry
as
spo
ts or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to
drain off of the dishes during the final rinse.
■
Ri
nse aid helps to reduce excess moisture on the dish r
acks
a
nd interior of your dishwasher.
■
Ch
eck the rinse aid indicator. Add rinse aid when the
indicator
window looks clear.
■
To
add rinse aid, turn
the
dispenser cap counterclockwise
and lift off. Pour rinse aid into the
o
pening until the indicator
window looks full. Replace the
dispenser cap and turn
clockwise. Make sure
c
ap is fully lock
ed.
NOTE: Fo
r most water conditions,
the factory setting of 2 will give
good results. If you have hard water
or notice rings or spots, try a higher
setting. Turn the arrow adjuster
inside the dispenser by either using
your fingers or inserting a flat-blade
screwdriver into the center of the
arrow and turning.
