USING THE DISHWASHER
Check the Water Temperature
The entering water should be at least 120°F and not more
than 150°F for effective cleaning and to prevent dish
damage. Check the water temperature with a candy or
meat thermometer.
Turn on the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher,
place the thermometer in a glass and let the water run
continuously into the glass until the temperature stops
rising.
Use a Rinse Agent
High quality rinse agents such as Cascade
®
Platinum™
Power Dry™ Rinse Aid or Finish
®
Jet-Dry
®
Rinse Aid
are designed for great drying action and to protect against
spots and film build-up on your dishes, glasses, flatware,
cookware, and plastic.
NOTE: You may hear some unusual, high-pitched
beeping when rinse aid is being dispensed. This is
normal.
When to Fill the Rinse Agent Dispenser
If the indicator glows or flashes
bright red, refill rinse aid.
If the indicator glows or flashes
dimly or not at all, you do not need
to refill, there is enough rinse aid
for the wash.
NOTE: Lighter colored rinse
aids will not dim the indicator as
effectively as darker ones.
Filling the Rinse Agent Dispenser
The rinse agent dispenser holds 1.7 oz. of rinse agent.
Under normal conditions, this will last approximately one
month.
The rinse aid dispenser is on the inside of the drawer,
underneath the detergent dispenser.
1
Turn the plug counterclockwise and remove.
2
Pour rinse aid into the circular opening, taking care
not to spill any into the drawer.
IMPORTANT!
Any accidental spillages of rinse aid must be wiped up.
If not wiped up, rinse aid will cause excessive foaming,
which may result in a service call that will not be covered
by warranty.
3
Replace the plug, then turn it clockwise back to its
original position.
IMPORTANT!
Make sure that the plug is closed tight, with its finger grip
in the vertical position.
Rinse Aid Setting
You may need to adjust the amount of rinse aid
dispensed in each wash to suit your water conditions.
The lowest setting is 0 (off), the highest is 5.
If there is excessive foam at the end of the wash, reduce
the setting.
If dishes are wet or streaky after drying, increase the
setting.
If you live in a hard water area and you have no water
softener installed in your water supply or built into your
dishwasher, we recommend adjusting the rinse aid
setting to 5.
