Kenmore 15828 Dishwasher User Manual


 
Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a liquid
rinse agent. A rinse agent greatly improves dish
drying by helping water flow off them during the last
rinse, A rinse agent also keeps water from forming
droplets and drying as spots or streaks°
A small amount of rinse agent automatically releases
into the rinse water during the final rinse of each cycle.
For best drying results, check dispenser periodically
to see if it needs filling.
To check dispenser:
o Check center of fill indicator cap. Clear means it
needs filling,
o Or remove fill indicator cap. An "E" is visible at the
bottom of the dispenser
when empty,
To fill dispenser;
The rinse agent dispenser holds 6 ounces
(! 75 mL), Under normal conditions, this lasts
about 3 months.
1. Open dishwasher door completely
2. Remove fill indicator cap1
3. Add rinse agent° Fill to smallest opening in lower
part of dispenser only Overfilling may cause rinse
agent to leak out.,This will not harm the dish-
washer, but could cause oversudsing
4. Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a
damp cloth
5. Replace fill indicator cap° Keep it closed tightly,
NOTE; You do not have to wait until the dispenser
is empty before refilling, but do not overfill it. Your
dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse agent.

detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on
dishes and helps dry glasses spot-free, Use the
Water Heat option, if available, if you keep your
water heater at a low setting. For best dishwashing
results, water must be at least 120°F (49°0) as it
enters the dishwasher.

will pause while water is heating, For more infor-
mation, see "Dishwasher seems to run too long"
on page 26.

washer° Let the water run for at least 1 minute.

meat thermometer,, Put the thermom-
eter in the running stream of water.

120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the
water heater's thermostat setting.
