Proper Use of Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Cascade
®
Automatic Dishwashing Detergent has been approved for
use in all
GE dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don’t put
detergent into the dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes.
You’ll find two detergent dispensers on the
inside door of your dishwasher. All wash cycles
except
RINSE ONLY
require detergent in the
main cup. Wash cycles with a pre-wash and a
main wash will also use the open cup.
The
amount of detergent to use depends on
whether your water is
hard
or
soft
. With hard
water, fill the main cup and open cup
completely. With soft water, fill both cups halfway.
When using
automatic dishwashing detergent tabs, simply place one tab in the
main cup and close.
Protect your dishes and dishwasher by contacting your water
department and asking how hard your water is. Twelve or more
grains is extremely hard water. A water softener is recommended.
Without it, lime can build up in the water valve, which could stick
while open and cause flooding. Too much detergent with soft water
can cause a permanent cloudiness of glassware, called
etching
.
NOTE:
To open detergent cup after it has
been closed, unlatch the door. Press the
START/RESET
pad three times within two
seconds and the detergent cup will release.
You may also turn the detergent cup handle
counter-clockwise until it releases. A snapping sound may be heard.
