STEP 3
Rinse Aid
IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid. The
use of rinse aids greatly improves drying by allowing water to
drain from the dishes after the final rinse. Rinse aid also keeps
water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.
Filling the dispenser
The dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse aid. Under most
conditions this will last 1 to 3 months.
NOTE: Indicator reads correct fill level when door is completely
opened.
1. To add rinse aid, open the rinse dispenser lid by gently
pushing in the center of the lid with your thumb and pulling
up on the edge.
2. Pour rinse aid into the opening until the dispenser is full. Do
not overfill.
3. Clean up any spilled rinse aid. Spilled rinse aid can create
excessive suds.
4. Close the dispenser by pushing down gently on the lid.
Rinse Aid Setting
Your rinse aid dispenser is adjustable. For most water
conditions, the factory setting will give good results. If you
have hard water and notice calcium buildup on your dishware,
you may want to try a higher setting. If you notice foam in your
dishwasher, use a lower setting.
To adjust the setting:
Turn the arrow adjuster to a higher number to increase the
amount of rinse aid. If you change the setting only change it one
number at a time and run a few cycles before changing it again.
Too much rinse aid can reduce cleaning performance and too
little may leave spots or rings.
STEP 4
Select a Cycle
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy,
just as driving a car slower saves gas. Typical cycle time is
approximately 2
1
/
2
hours but can take less or more time to
complete depending on selections. Press START keypad to
select the Auto cycle or select another cycle appropriate for your
load (see Cycle Guide).
Select Options
See the “Cycle and Option Descriptions” chart in the following
section.
You can customize the cycles by selecting the options desired
and pressing the START keypad.
STEP 5
Start Cycle
■ If needed, run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher
until the water is hot. Turn off water.
■ For best dish washing results, water should be 120ºF (49ºC)
as it enters the dishwasher.
■ Firmly close the door and press START. If the START keypad
is not pressed the START keypad light will flash, an audible
tone will be heard, and the cycle will not start.
■ You can add an item at the beginning of the cycle. Open the
door slowly and add the item. Close the door firmly. If the
door has been open more than a few seconds the START
light will flash, a tone will sound and the dishwasher will not
resume unless you press START button again.
IMPORTANT: If the door has been opened for more than a few
seconds after the cycle has started (even during the Delay time),
The START button must be pressed again or the cycle will not
resume.
STEP 6
Follow the progress of your dishwasher
The display will indicate cycle progress such as Add Dish,
Washing, Drying, Clean and Sanitized. The cycle has completed
when the Clean light is lit. Refer to the Controls and Cycle
Status section for operation of the Sanitized indicator.
IMPORTANT: Extremely hard water mineral deposits
(15 grains per U.S. gallon or more) can cause damage to your
dishwasher and make it difficult to achieve good results. A water
softener is recommended to avoid damage and achieve good
results.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other
dishwasher detergent types.
