Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Keep
your detergent fresh and dry. Don’t put powder 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.
You’ll find two detergent dispensers on the
door of your dishwasher. All wash cycles
except
RINSE & HOLD
require detergent in
the main cup. If your dishes have extra
heavy soil or you have hard water you may
want to add detergent to the open cup also.
Wash cycles with two washes will also use the
open cup.
Be sure the Dial is at
OFF
position before adding detergent.
Otherwise, the detergent cup will not close and latch properly.
Add detergent then close the main cup.
NOTE:
To open detergent cup after it has
been closed, simply turn the detergent cup
handle counter-clockwise until it releases. A
snapping sound may be heard.
