Hot Water
To get dishes clean and dry you need hot
water. To help you get water of the proper
temperature, your dishwasher
automatically heats the water in the wash
cycle. Higher water temperature is needed
to dissolve grease and activate powder
detergents. For good washing and drying,
the entering water must be at least t20°E
To prevent dish damage, inlet water
should not exceed 150°E
Check your water temperature with a
candy or meat thermometer.
Turn on the hot water faucet nearest the
dishwasher. Put the thermometer in a
glass and let the water run continuously
into the glass until the temperature stops
rising_
Do not operate the dishwasher during or
right after other heavy use of hot water,
such as for laundry or bathing.
Water Pressure
Water supply pressure must be between
15 and 120 pounds per square inch. To
determine if you have enough pressure,
put a 1 quart container under a fully
opened hot water faucet nearest the
dishwasher. If the container fills in less
than 9 seconds, water pressure is within
an acceptable ranger Be sure all other
faucets are turned off during this test°
Water Conditions
In areas where water is very hard (12
grains or more), it may be necessary to
install a water softener to assure proper
performance from your dishwasher. If you
do not know the hardness of your water
supply, contact your local water
department or bring a sample into your
Sears store for testing.
Detergents
Only use detergents labeled for use in
automatic dishwashers. NEVER use
laundry detergents, liquid soaps or other
household cleaners in your dishwasher.
Some detergents will be more effective
with your water conditions than others.
Store detergent in acool, dry place.
Rinse Agents
Rinse agents make water flow off dishes
quicker than usual. This lessens water
spotting and makes drying faster, too.
Rinse agents come in either liquid or solid
form. Your dishwasher's dispenser uses
the liquid form.
