tit might be necessary to use the Hi Temp Wash option for best
wash performance in very hard water.
NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for standard powdered detergent.
Amounts may vary if you use liquid or concentrated powdered
detergent. Tablet detergents should be placed in the main wash
section of the detergent dispenser with the cover closed. Follow
instructions on the package when using liquid dishwasher
detergent, concentrated powdered detergent or tablet detergent.
IMPORTANT: See "Cycle Selection Charts" for which detergent
dispenser sections to use with each cycle.
IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse
aid. The use of rinse aids greatly improves drying by allowing
water to drain from the dishes during the final rinse. They also
prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or
streaks. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse aid.
Checking the dispenser
Check the center of the fill indicator cap. Clear means it needs
filling.
Or you can remove the fill indicator cap. If an "E" is visible, the
dispenser is empty.
Filling the dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser holds 6 oz (175 mL) of rinse aid. Under
normal conditions, this will last for about 3 months. You do not
have to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it
full, but be sure not to overfill it.
1. Make sure the dishwasher door is completely open.
2. Remove the fill indicator cap.
3. Add rinse aid. Fill to the smallest opening in the lower part of
the dispenser. Overfilling can cause the rinse aid to leak out,
and could cause oversudsing.

4. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.
5. Replace the fill indicator cap. Close tightly.
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent.
Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry
spot-free. Is the water temperature too low? For best
dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters
the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water
temperature is too low. Water that is too hot can make some soils
harder to remove and cause certain detergent ingredients not to
function. If your water heater is located far from the dishwasher, it
may be necessary to run the hot water at the faucet closest to the
dishwasher to minimize the amount of cold water in the water
line.
To check water temperature
1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at
least 1 minute.
2. Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring
cup.
3. Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is
running into the cup.
