Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Cascade®
Automatic Dishwashing Detergent has been approved for
use in all GE
dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don’t put detergent
into the dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes.
You’ll find two detergent dispensers on the
inside door of your dishwasher. All wash cycles
require detergent in the main cup. Wash cycles
with a pre-wash and a main wash will also use the
open cup.
The amount of detergent to use
depends on whether your water is
hard
or
soft
.
With hard water, fill the main cup and open
cup completely. With soft water, fill both cups
halfway.
When using automatic dishwashing detergent tabs, simply
place one tab in the main cup and close.
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
.
NOTE:
To open detergent cup after it has
been closed, unlatch the door. Press the
START/RESET
pad three times within two
seconds and the detergent cup will release.
You may also turn the detergent cup handle
counter-clockwise until it releases. A snapping sound may be heard.
