DISHWASHER USE
De{I:e ge t D s }e ss@:
The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash
section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you
close the door.
Where to fill
Top of 3rd step (9 tsp or 45 mL)
A B C D
Top of 2nd step (6 tsp or 30 mL)
A. Cover
B. Main Wash
section
C. Cover latch
D. Pre-Wash
section
The larger Main Wash section automatically empties
detergent into the dishwasher during the main wash. (See
the "Cycle Selection Charts.")
• Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other
detergents can produce excessive suds that can
overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing
performance.
Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place.
Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use detergent if you have selected a rinse
cycle.
Filling the dispenser
1. If the dispenser cover is closed, open the cover by
pushing the cover latch.
2. Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See "How
much detergent to use."
3. Fill the Pre-Wash section if needed. (See "Cycle
Selection Charts.")
4. Close the dispenser cover.
The cover will open during the cycle to dispense the
detergent.
How much detergent to use
• The amount of detergent to use depends on the
hardness of your water and the type of detergent. If you
use too little, dishes will not be clean. If you use too
much in soft water, glassware will etch.
• Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find
out your water's hardness by asking your Sears Sales
Associate, local water department, water softener
company, or county extension agent.
