Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps
glasses dry spot-free. 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 Additional efficiency tips
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.

Check the temperature on the thermometer as the
water is running into the cup.
To save water, energy and time, do not rinse dishes
before putting them into the dishwasher.
Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher during off-
peak hours. Local utilities recommend avoiding heavy
usage of energy at certain times of day.
During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This
reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.
Use a rinse aid to improve drying.
Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash
or rinse portion of the cycle only when needed.
If your home is equipped with a water softener, you
may want to avoid starting the dishwasher during the
regeneration of the softener, since this may contribute
to poor wash performance.
