This dishwasher may have Bulk Dispense, a
feature which automatically dispenses liquid
automatic dishwasher detergent into each cycle
based on soil level and water hardness.
To utilize the Bulk Dispense Detergent Dispenser,
it must first be filled. Although any liquid or gel
automatic dishwashing detergent can be used
in the Bulk Dispense system, all liquid or gel
automatic dishwashing detergents are not the
same. Most automatic dishwashing detergents
are chlorine bleach-based (such as Cascade
®
or
Electrasol
®
) while others contain enzymes (such as
Cascade Complete
®
or Electrasol
®
Advanced
™
Gel).
Do not mix any chlorine bleach-based
automatic dishwashing detergent with any
dishwashingdetergent containing enzymes as
this could cause the detergents to congeal and
lead to blockage of the Bulk Dispense system.
Check the detergent label to determine if the
detergent is chlorine bleach-based or one that
contains enzymes. It is recommended that the
same type of detergent be used when refilling
your Bulk Dispense system.
To open the dispenser for filling, push down and
turn the blue cap counterclockwise until the cap
is loose. Lift cap off.
Set the door at a comfortable angle to fill the
dispenser.
Aim the detergent bottle at the opening in the
door and begin to fill.
The dispenser will hold 45 oz of liquid dishwasher
detergent (standard size bottle).
When full, replace the cap and turn clockwise
until tight to ensure no water enters the Bulk
Dispense dispenser. If residue is left on the door,
it will be washed off in the next cycle.
An indicator light will turn on to notify you when
the dispenser needs to be filled again. After filling,
the light will not turn off until the door is closed. A
full dispenser will last approximately 1 month for
the average user.
NOTE: If you are not using Bulk Dispense and you
want to turn the LOW DETERGENT LED light off,
press the ADDED HEAT pad 5 times within 3
seconds. You will hear 3 beeps; then the light will
go off. You can turn the light back on by pressing
the ADDED HEAT pad 5 times within 3 seconds.
CAUTION! Absolutely do not add
powder detergent, tablets or any liquid soap
or detergent normally used for washing hands
or dishes in a sink. Only use liquid or gel
detergent specifically designed for use in
an automatic dishwasher.
