How to Test Water Temperature
To get dishes clean and dry you need hot water.
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. If the water
temperature is below 49¡C (120¡F), adjust your
water heater.
To prevent dish damage, inlet water should not
exceed 65¡C (150¡F).
How to Use a Rinse Agent
A rinse aid such as
JET DRY
makes water flow off
dishes quicker than usual. This lessens water
spotting and makes drying faster, too.
For best dishwashing performance, use of a rinse
agent is recommended.
How to fill the rinse agent dispenser.
Unscrew the cap. Note the FULL line on the tip of
the cap. On some models, the dispenser can be
checked by pressing the clear centre of the fill cap
2 or 3 times. Add the liquid rinse agent until it just
reaches the top of the full line. Replace the cap.
The dispenser automatically releases the rinse agent
into the final rinse water.
DO NOT FILL PAST “MAX” LINE.
If you accidentally spill: Wipe up the rinse agent
with a damp cloth. Don't leave the spill in the
dishwasher. It can keep your detergent from
working.
