Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents
Filling the Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has one main wash and one
pre wash cup. The covered cups open automatically
to release detergent.
• Use only fresh automatic dishwashing
detergent. Other detergents will cause
oversudsing.
• When using automaticdishwashing detergent
tabs, place one tab in main wash cup and
close.
• Add detergent just before starting cycle.
• Store detergent in a cool, dry location. Moist
or caked detergent will not dissolve properly.
The use of industrial grade detergent can
damage the heating coil and other parts of the
dishwasher leading to damage to the unit and
surrounding property. Use only household grade
automatic dishwasher detergents.
How much Detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends on the
water hardness. Water hardness is measured in
grains per gallon. Using too little detergent can
result in poor cleaning and hard water filming or
spotting. Using too much detergent in soft water
can cause a permanent film called etching. Your
local water company, water softener company or
county extension agent can tell you the water
hardness in your area.

*Note" For very hard water, detergent alone may not be enough. A water softener is recommended to improve
water quality and dishwashing performance. Try adding more detergent at the beginning of the main wash portion
of the cycle. As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open slowly and add detergent
to the bottom of the tub. Close the door to latch and the dishwasher will continue through the cycle.
