Filling the Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has one covered and one
uncovered cup. Detergent in the uncovered cup falls into
the dishwasher when the door is closed. The covered
cup opens automatically to release detergent.
• Useonly fresh automaticdishwashing 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.
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.
