You’ll find two detergent
dispensers on the inside door of
your dishwasher.
Two, because
some cycles use two washes.
See “Detergent Usage Guide”
below. (Be sure the Cycle Indicator
Dial is at OFF position before
adding detergent. Otherwise, the
detergent cup will not close and
latch properly)
Close the main cup.
NOTE: Detergent cup may be
opened manually with no harm.
Turn handle
counterclochise
until it releases. A snapping sound
is normal when it opens.
How to prepare the dishes
for washing
If this is your first dishwasher, or if
you’re replacing a much older
model, you may wonder how much
preparation
your dishes need.
Actually very little. Pre-rinsing of
normal food soils is not necessary.
With common sense and a little
practice you’ll soon know what
foods to remove. Here are some
guidelines:
1.
Scrape off bones, seeds, skins,
toothpicks and other hard solids. It
is
dso best to remove hard shelled
vegetables, meat trimmings, leafy
vegetables and crusts. Remove
excessive quantities of oil or grease.
2. Remove large quantities of any
food. Your dishwasher has a built-in
soft food disposer that pulverizes
soft food bits
and
flushes them
away. It can handle small amounts
of soft foods, but large amounts will
be difficult to handle.
Detergent Usage Guide (powder or liquid)
3.
Try to remove food scraps
and
place dishes in dishwasher before
soil has a chance to dry and become
hard. Dishes with dried-on soil are
more difficult to wash and may not
come clean in the NORMAL
WASH cycle. Remember to use
your RINSE & HOLD cycle for
small “holding” loads.
Note: The
foods mentioned above
are for examples only. Other foods
not mentioned may also need to be
removed from your dishes. You may
dso want to consider removing
foods such as mustard, mayonnaise,
vinegar, lemon juice
and
other foods
that can cause discoloration of
stainless steel if allowed to remain
on dishes for a long period of time.
