detergents
Filing the detergent dispenser
The detergent dispenser has one covered

open the main wash detergent cup.

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 etching to some glassware which
is surface damage that appears like a film
but cannot be wiped o. Your local water
company, water softener company or
county extension agent can tell you the
water hardness in your area.

detergent. Other detergents may
cause oversudsing.

detergent tabs, place one tab in main
wash cup and close.
