Using the rinse agent dispenser
A rinse agent greatly improves dish drying and helps pre-
vent spots or streaks. The rinse agent helps water flow off
dishes and keeps water from forming droplets. A small
amount of rinse agent automatically releases into the final
rinse water.
Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a liquid
rinse agent. For best drying results, periodically check
the dispenser as follows to see if it needs filling:
• Check center of rinse aid indicator cap I_11.Clear
means it needs filling.
OR
• Remove rinse aid indicator cap. An "E" is visible at the
bottom of the dispenser when empty I?11.
To fill dispenser:
1. Open dishwasher door completely.
2. Remove rinse aid indicator cap.
3. Add rinse agent il. Fill only to smallest opening in
lower part of dispenser. Overfilling may cause rinse
agent to leak out. This will not harm the dishwasher,
but could cause oversudsing.
4. Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a damp cloth.
5. Replace rinse aid indicator cap. Keep it closed tightly.
NOTES:
• Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse agent.
Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse agent.
• The rinse agent dispenser holds 6 ounces (175 mL).
Under normal conditions, this lasts about 3 months.
• You do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty
before refilling, but do not overfill it.
Water temperature tips
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing deter-
gent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and
helps dry glasses spot-free. For best dishwashing results,
water must be at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dish-
washer. Loads may not wash as well if the water temper-
ature is too low.
To check water temperature:
1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher
for at least 1 minute.
2. Measure the water temperature with a candy or meat
thermometer placed in the running stream of water [].
3. If the water temperature at the faucet is below 120°F
(49°C), have a qualified person raise the water heater's
thermostat setting.
