Add Detergent
NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse
cycle. Do not use detergent.
Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add powder, liquid
or tablet detergent just before starting a cycle.
Fresh automatic
dishwasher detergent
results in better
cleaning. Store tightly
closed detergent
container in a cool,
dry place.
The amount of detergent to use depends on:
How much soil remains on the items - Heavily soiled loads
require more detergent.
The hardness of the water - If you use too little in hard water,
dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.
Soft to Medium Water (0-6 grains per U.S. gallon)
[typical water softener water and some city water]
Medium to Hard Water (7-12 grains per U.S. gallon)
[well water and some city water]
Depending on your water hardness, fill the Main Wash section
of the dispenser as shown. Fill the Pre-Wash section to the
level shown, if needed.
NOTE: Fill amounts shown
are for standard powdered
detergent. Follow
instructions on the package
when using other
dishwasher detergent.
Add Rinse Aid
Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid your dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. The heat dry option will
not perform as well without rinse aid.
Rinse aid keeps water from forming
droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.
They also improve drying by allowing
water to drain off of the dishes after the
final rinse.
Rinse aid helps to reduce excess
moisture on the dish racks and interior of
your dishwasher.
Check the rinse aid indicator. Add rinse aid when indicator
drops to “Add” level or, when rinse aid indicator looks light. The
light visual indicator means to add rinse aid, and the dark visual
indicator means that there is sufficient rinse aid in the
dishwasher.
Dispenser with one lid - To add
rinse aid, turn the dispenser
cap to “Refill” and lift off. Pour
rinse aid into the opening until
the indicator level is at “Full.”
Replace the dispenser cap and
turn to “Lock.” Make sure cap
is fully locked.
NOTE: For most water conditions, the
factory setting of 2 will give good results.
If you have hard water or notice rings or
spots, try a higher setting. Turn the arrow
adjuster inside the dispenser by either
using your fingers or inserting a flat-blade
screwdriver into the center of the arrow
and turning.
Select a Cycle (cycles vary by model)
NOTE: Heavier cycles and options affect cycle length. Some
cycles and options will take up to 3¹⁄₂ hours to complete.
Rinse Only – (no options apply to this
cycle) Do not use detergent. This is only a
rinse that keeps food from drying on your
dishes and reduces odor buildup in your
dishwasher until you are ready to wash a full load.
Normal – Use for normal food soil. The energy usage label is
based on this cycle.
Pots & Pans – Use for heavily soiled, hard-to-clean items.
Select Options (options vary by model)
You can customize your cycles by pressing
the options desired.
Hi-Temp Wash – (use only with Pots & Pans
and Normal wash cycles) heats the water during the wash portions
of the cycle.
Heated Dry – (automatic with all except rinse cycle) use for best
drying results. Turn off by pressing Heat Dry so that the light goes
off.
Delay – (any cycle) offers the choice to start the
dishwasher automatically at a later time. Select a wash
cycle and options. Press 4 Hour Delay. Press START/
RESUME. Close the door firmly.
Locked – (on Heat Dry button) use to avoid unintended use of your
dishwasher. When Control Lock is lit, all buttons are disabled. The
dishwasher door can be opened while the controls are locked.
To turn on Lock:
Press and hold Heat Dry for at least 4 seconds. The Locked light
glows. If you press any pad while your dishwasher is locked, the
light flashes 3 times.
To turn off Lock:
Press and hold Heat Dry for at least 4 seconds. The Control Lock
light turns off.
When loading silverware, always place sharp
items pointing down and avoid “nesting” as
shown.
